Tile and Grout Sealing

Sealing tile and grout—both indoors and outdoors—is a critical step in protecting your surfaces from premature wear, staining, and moisture damage. As a stone mason, I’ve seen firsthand how unsealed grout and porous tiles can absorb water, oils, and dirt, leading to discolouration, mould growth, and structural deterioration over time.

Indoor Sealing

In kitchens, bathrooms, and living areas, sealing prevents spills from penetrating the surface and makes everyday cleaning easier. It also helps maintain the natural beauty of tiles, especially in high-use zones.

Outdoor Sealing

Outdoor tiles are constantly exposed to weather, UV rays, and organic growth like moss and algae. A high-quality sealer forms a protective barrier, preventing moisture absorption and reducing the risk of cracking, efflorescence, and surface erosion.

Why It Matters:

  • Extends the life of tiles and grout

  • Prevents staining and mould growth

  • Enhances appearance and colour depth

  • Makes cleaning and maintenance easier

  • Protects against moisture damage and weathering
