Specialist Repair of a Damaged Victorian Tiled Hallway in Newport。You will see from my website that I have a lot of experience in rebuilding Victorian tiled floors and on this occasion my colleague required me to perform some specialist tile repairs before he could carry out the business of cleaning and sealing the floor.

Lime wash floor. Wipe off the stain with a clean rag while the stain is still wet, again working in the direction of the boards and the wood grain.

Move along the floor boards applying and wiping off stain in small sections at a time until you have stained the whole floor. Let the floor dry for a few hours if you used water-based stain; let it dry overnight if you used oil-based stain. Don't proceed with sealing the floor until the sealer is fully dry to the touch.

Laminate Bathroom Installation Precautions The inherent humidity in the bathroom will cause laminate floor tiles and planks to expand and contract over time. Because of this, they require a ¼” - ⅛” gap to be left around the room during installation.

This can then be filled in with a waterproof silicone which will act as a grout line, sealing the floor while still allowing for expansion of the materials.
