Properly cleaning and scrubbing your bath and shower floors and walls weekly and even daily will help you maintain their beauty especially for newly installed tiles and ceramics. But due to a bathroom’s wet environment and constant water seeping behind the walls, tiles and ceramics will become stained, subject to bacterial, fungal, and mold growth, and prone to chipping and cracks.
That’s why it is essential to keep your tiles and grouts sealed to prevent premature staining and damage. Natural stones like limestones and marbles are highly porous materials which means they are quick in absorbing water and stains.
Sealing the surfaces is recommended to block the moisture and stains from penetrating to the inner surfaces, preventing damage underneath and protects the outer surface from bacteria, mildew and molds.
Ceramic and porcelain tiles on the other hand were manufactured with glossy water-resistant surfaces so sealing may not be necessary particularly if newly installed. Nevertheless, keep an eye on staining because as time goes by, there will be surface glazing so light sealing is necessary to fill the pores.

We use formula-tested and efficient water-resistant sealants (depending on the tile and grout surfaces) and state-of-art equipment to create invisible barriers protecting your bath and shower floors and walls from bacterial growth, molds, and mildew growth and to maintain the original beauty of your tile installation for many years to come.
