We bought a new build house in December 2015.
The kitchen walls are tiled in what the building specification describes as "slate river 10x10". To my untutored eye they appear to be porous and so absolutely not suitable for use around the kitchen hob when fat, oil, sauces are frequently splattered.
I am using normal kitchen cleaning sprays but am afraid that the tiles will at some time become discoloured.
Opinions/views/advice gratefully received.
Thank you.
The kitchen floor tiles in our new house have either not been sealed, or sealant has worn off.
They become dirty and marked very easily.
I have used a heavy duty steam cleaner- which helped- but it's not practical to use on a daily basis.
What would you advise?
Hi we have some lovely slate floor tiles in our bathroom and we would love to keep them as we are redecorating.
However where the bath was there is silicone sealant on them and I can't seem to remove it without scratching the tile.
Could you help me out of what product we need to help remove this silicone?
Regards Kirsty
We have a natural Welsh Slate floor which has water mark stains.
Can these be obliterated?
I would value your input.
Mrs Leri Trivett
Can you recommend a product for cleaning the floor tiles each week now they are installed and have been sealed.
Thanks
Please could you advise me on how I can remove grout from my riven slate tiles.
These tiles have been down for a number of years and I foolishly thought that I could freshen up the grout.
Thinking that the sealant that had previously been applied would protect the tiles I went ahead and applied the grout but left it on the surface for to long before trying to remove it and now have a big problem!!
I had a riven slate fire surround fitted, there where some white marks on it but I was assured they would disappear with time, they haven't !
The stone mason has been very unhelpful if your able to tell me what's caused it and how if possible to sort it out I'd be really grateful.
Many thanks,
Tina
