Surrey Expert Details the Cleaning of a Victorian Hallway Floor in Surrey
This client from Farnham had been in touch regarding their Victorian tiled hallway which needed deep cleaning and re-sealing. As usual I paid them a visit, surveyed the floor, and provided a quote for renovating it which they were happy to accept, there were no broken tiles to remove and replace so it was a straightforward clean and seal. It was a lovely floor which had been laid in a herringbone pattern with lovely black and gold floral inserts and a beautiful green border.
Whilst discussing dates it became apparent that they were planning on having some decorating done in the same area, so I recommended they book me in for a date after the decorators had left. It’s always good practice to get the floor cleaned after your last tradesperson has left, decorators especially have a habit of not covering floors properly.
Cleaning a Victorian Tiled Hallway Floor
I turned up on the agreed date and was pleasantly surprised to see there were only a few paint splashes on the floor so I wondered if my comments to the owner must have been passed onto the decorators. The hallway led onto several rooms many of which had new carpets, so with my own advice in mind I made sure to cover them with a plastic sheet before starting work.
The first job was to remove any existing sealer from the tiles using Tile Doctor Remove and Go, this is brushed onto the tiles, left for ten to fifteen minutes, and then scrubbed in with a black pad fitted to a rotary floor machine running at slow speed. The resultant slurry was then rinsed off and extracted with a wet vacuum. It was a small floor so I planned to seal the floor later that day and so I only used a minimal amount of water and used the wet vacuum to remove as much moisture as possible.
Next, I gave the floor an acid rinse by carefully smearing Tile Doctor Acid Gel over the tiled surface. Leaving it to dwell for half an hour yet keeping it moist with water. I then introduced my weighted burnishing machine. Circling the floor, it slightly cuts the tile creating a slurry of tile and dirt. The pads can struggle to get right into the corners so once that was done, I scooted around the edges hand cleaning them with a scrubbing brush and ensuring any paint splashes the decorators had left were removed.
All the waste was extracted, and the floor given a rinse with hot water. I left a small heater on them while I had my lunch. As the gel doesn’t penetrate the tiles like fluid it didn’t take long for the floor to dry sufficiently enough for sealing.
Sealing a Victorian Tiled Hallway Floor
Finally, I applied three coats of Tile Doctor Seal and Go Extra. This is a hard-wearing colour enhancing sealer. Each coat takes twenty to thirty minutes to dry. After the final coat I ask that it’s not walked on for a good hour.
Once done to the floor looked really clean and the new sealer should keep it that way for many years to come. Before leaving I took time to discuss maintenance cleaning and of course get their feedback which they gladly gave and is copied below:
“Great service. Rupert was professional, informative, friendly clean worker who made a great job of cleaning our original Victorian tiled floor. Tile Doctor were recommended to me by a friend, and I would definitely recommend them and Rupert for tile cleaning.”
For the aftercare of Victorian tiled floors, I recommended the use of Tile Doctor Neutral Tile Cleaner which due to its neutral ph makes it idea for the regular cleaning of sealed tiles. Many of the products you will find in supermarkets are simply too strong and will prematurely erode the sealer on a tile and so best avoided.

How to Replace the Sealer on Travertine Tiles by Surrey Expert
A client had downsized to flat in Weybridge and before moving in had decided to have a new bathroom fitted which included the installation of Travertine wall tiling.
While she loved the stone, she didn’t like the colour enhancing sealer that the tiler had applied to enhance and protect the tiles. What was once a natural pale colour had turned into a shade of yellow. Unhappy with the colour and getting nowhere with the tiler she decided to call Tile Doctor and have it rectified.
The final appearance of stone whether it is laid on the floor or the wall is a very personal choice and very difficult to make until you see the finished result. I find colour enhancing sealers usually help to bring out the natural features and colours in the stone however I do find lots of clients asking for the natural look.
I’m afraid the photographs on this page didn’t come out that well, there was little natural light in the small bathroom and so they don’t really do the Travertine tiles justice.
Stripping a Colour Enhancing Sealer from Travertine Wall Tiles
To resolve the problem, I first had to remove the old sealer which was done by wetting the walls with water and then applying Tile Doctor Oxy-Gel. Being a gel this tile cleaning product sticks to vertical surfaces allowing for longer dwell times. This was then left to soak in for about half an hour, then using a set of four six-inch diamond burnishing pads, I slowly burnished the walls until the sealer was removed.
The process of burnishing is a messy business and involves the application of four different grades of pad starting with a coarse pad and ending with a polishing pad. The process does generate a fine soil, thankfully being in the bathroom however it was easier to contain. The soiling was removed using more water and a wet vacuum.
I then speed dried the room with a large warm air blower so I could apply the new sealer later in the day.
Sealing a Travertine Tiled Bathroom Wall
After lunch I checked the Travertine wall tiles for moisture using a damp meter and it confirmed they were dry and ready for sealing. To seal I applied a couple of coats of Tile Doctor Ultra-Seal which adds protection but is also invisible leaving the stone with a natural look. This was not a colour enhancing product as per the client’s earlier instruction.
Finally, I cleared up the mess and polished the glass shower screen whilst I was waiting for the sealer to dry. Needless to say, my client was very happy and finally had the desired appearance.
For after care I recommend the use of Tile Doctor Aqua-Pro which is a mild but effective cleaner that isn’t too strong for use on sealed stone and can be used daily after a shower. This will keep the sealer in the best condition and the bathroom looking pristine.

How to Get Rid of a Wasp Nest in Sussex
Sussex, with its picturesque landscapes and serene countryside, is a place many call home. However, amidst its natural beauty, one common nuisance that residents encounter, especially during the warmer months, is the presence of wasp nests. These nests can pose a threat to individuals and pets, making their removal a necessary task. Wasp nest removal in Sussex is a common concern for many homeowners. Fortunately, with the right approach, getting rid of such nests can be done effectively and safely. In this article, we'll explore some strategies to tackle this challenge head-on.
1. Identifying the Wasp Nest:
Before embarking on any removal process, it's crucial to identify the location of the nest of a wasp. Wasps typically build their nests in sheltered areas, such as under eaves, in trees, or even inside wall cavities. They can also be found in garden sheds, attics, or any other secluded spots around your property.
2. Safety Precautions:
Safety should always be the top priority when dealing with wasp nests. Wasps can become aggressive when their nest is disturbed, so it's essential to take precautions to avoid stings. Wear protective clothing such as long sleeves, pants, gloves, and a veil or mask to shield your face. Additionally, make sure to work during the cooler hours of the day when wasps are less active, typically early in the morning or late in the evening.
3. Natural Remedies:
For those who prefer a more eco-friendly approach, there are several natural remedies to consider for wasp nest removal in Sussex. One method is to use a mixture of soap and water sprayed directly onto the nest. The soap suffocates the wasps, causing them to die off. Another option is to hang decoys, such as paper bags or fake wasp nests, near the actual nest, which can deter wasps from building in the area.
4. Commercial Wasp Sprays:
Commercial wasp sprays are widely available and can be effective in eliminating wasp nests. These sprays contain chemicals that quickly kill wasps upon contact. When using these products, be sure to follow the instructions carefully and apply the spray from a safe distance to avoid getting stung. It's also important to note that some sprays may contain harmful ingredients, so consider the potential impact on the environment before use.
5. Professional Pest Control Services:
In cases where the wasp nest is large or difficult to reach, or if you're uncomfortable handling the removal yourself, hiring a professional pest control service is a wise decision. These experts specialising in pest control in Sussex have the knowledge, experience, and equipment needed to safely remove the nest without putting yourself or your property at risk. Furthermore, they can help prevent future infestations.
6. Preventive Measures:
Once the wasp nest has been removed, it's essential to take preventive measures to avoid future infestations. Seal any cracks or openings around your home where wasps can enter, and keep outdoor areas clean and free of food debris. Consider planting insect-repelling plants such as mint, basil, or marigolds around your property to deter wasps from nesting nearby.
Conclusion:
Dealing with a wasp nest in Sussex can indeed be a daunting task, but with the right approach, it can be tackled safely and effectively. Whether you choose to tackle the removal yourself using natural remedies or commercial sprays or prefer to enlist the expertise of professionals like Knockout Pest Control, prioritising safety is paramount. By taking preventive measures to discourage future infestations, you can ensure a wasp-free environment and enjoy peace of mind in your home.
