Tile Sealing in Los Angeles

Tile Cleaning Solutions seals tile, grout, and natural stone in Los Angeles homes and businesses. Sealer helps porous surfaces resist stains, spills, and moisture and makes everyday cleaning easier. We always clean first, so the sealer bonds properly. For a free quote, call 888-294-0404 or fill out the quote form on this page.

Signs Your Tile or Grout Needs Sealing

Most grout and natural stone are porous and need a sealer to stay protected. Look for:

  • Water soaks in instead of beading up. A few drops that darken the grout or stone mean it’s absorbing liquid.
  • Grout that stains easily. Spills leave marks that won’t wipe away.
  • Freshly cleaned or newly installed tile. Clean grout and new stone are the best time to seal.
  • Shower grout that stays damp. Unsealed shower grout holds moisture, which encourages mildew.
  • Outdoor stone that absorbs dirt. Patio and pool deck stone collects dirt and staining faster when unsealed.

Our Tile Sealing Process

  1. Inspection and sealer selection. We identify the tile or stone and its finish and choose a sealer suited to it. Glazed tile itself usually needs little sealing, but its grout does.
  2. Preparation. We protect nearby surfaces. Our technicians can move small, light furniture. We don’t move heavy or fragile items, so please clear those before we arrive.
  3. Deep cleaning. We do a full tile and grout cleaning first. Sealing over dirt locks the dirt in.
  4. Drying. Surfaces need to be dry so the sealer can absorb and bond.
  5. Sealer application. We apply the sealer evenly to the grout lines and, on porous tile and stone, to the tile surface.
  6. Remove excess. We wipe off excess sealer so it doesn’t leave a hazy film.
  7. Curing. If we seal, allow 24 to 48 hours for the sealer to cure before normal use and mopping.

Aftercare for Sealed Tile

  • Allow 24 to 48 hours to cure. Hold off on normal use and mopping until the sealer has cured.
  • Clean with a pH-neutral cleaner. Harsh and acidic cleaners break down sealer faster.
  • Wipe spills promptly. Sealer buys you time, but it doesn’t make a surface stain-proof.
  • Do a water test. When water stops beading on the grout or stone, it’s time to reseal.

How long a sealer lasts depends on foot traffic, the surface, and how it’s cleaned. Plan on resealing about every 2 years.

Glazed porcelain and ceramic tiles are not very porous, but the grout between them is. Sealing the grout is usually what matters most.

Sealer bonds to the surface it touches. If grout or stone is dirty, the dirt gets sealed in. Cleaning first gives the best protection and appearance.

Allow 24 to 48 hours for the sealer to cure before normal use and mopping.

Most of the sealers we use for grout and stone dry clear. Some stone sealers can deepen the color slightly. We’ll talk through the options before we start.

It depends on traffic and maintenance. Doing a water test from time to time is the best guide. With regular care, about every 2 years is a reasonable reference point.
