Old Quarry tiles. No DPM and lots of character. This floor was lifeless and filthy. Cleaned with a degreaser, a spot stain remover and sealed with a Colour Intensifier and stainstop. Then buffed over.
One of my first cleans and seals! The farming family used to keep a Shetland pony in the kitchen and thought the floor was black. They were going to spend £13K on getting a new floor done, but we tested it and made it look good again.
Cleaning an Edwardian tiled hallway. Took a break half way and took a photo!
300 year old limestone. Cleaned, regrouted and sealed with a linseed based impregnating sealant. Then burnished with a high speed polisher.

Highly polished limestone. I had to remove a white wine mark that had acid etched the polish off (you can see part of it on the left tile - it went all the way across to the right tile too). Basically, using diamond pads after neutralising the mark, the tile was repolished and then sealed with an impregnating sealer for polished surfaces.
Terracotta - After a good clean and seal. Boiled Linseed oil / Strong surface sealant.
Before the clean - terracotta
