Another backsplash installation I finished up last week in "Starkey Ranch" Odessa, Florida. Herringbone is a craze here in the Tampa area and this 3x12 Albatross White tile came out mint. The tile was square and flat but the surface was very wavy with edges that whipped up a tad like a handmade tile. The backsplash definitely make the kitchen look good!

Surrey Expert Details the Cleaning of a Victorian Hallway Floor in Surrey
This client from Farnham had been in touch regarding their Victorian tiled hallway which needed deep cleaning and re-sealing. As usual I paid them a visit, surveyed the floor, and provided a quote for renovating it which they were happy to accept, there were no broken tiles to remove and replace so it was a straightforward clean and seal. It was a lovely floor which had been laid in a herringbone pattern with lovely black and gold floral inserts and a beautiful green border.
Whilst discussing dates it became apparent that they were planning on having some decorating done in the same area, so I recommended they book me in for a date after the decorators had left. It’s always good practice to get the floor cleaned after your last tradesperson has left, decorators especially have a habit of not covering floors properly.
Cleaning a Victorian Tiled Hallway Floor
I turned up on the agreed date and was pleasantly surprised to see there were only a few paint splashes on the floor so I wondered if my comments to the owner must have been passed onto the decorators. The hallway led onto several rooms many of which had new carpets, so with my own advice in mind I made sure to cover them with a plastic sheet before starting work.

The first job was to remove any existing sealer from the tiles using Tile Doctor Remove and Go, this is brushed onto the tiles, left for ten to fifteen minutes, and then scrubbed in with a black pad fitted to a rotary floor machine running at slow speed. The resultant slurry was then rinsed off and extracted with a wet vacuum. It was a small floor so I planned to seal the floor later that day and so I only used a minimal amount of water and used the wet vacuum to remove as much moisture as possible.

Next, I gave the floor an acid rinse by carefully smearing Tile Doctor Acid Gel over the tiled surface. Leaving it to dwell for half an hour yet keeping it moist with water. I then introduced my weighted burnishing machine. Circling the floor, it slightly cuts the tile creating a slurry of tile and dirt. The pads can struggle to get right into the corners so once that was done, I scooted around the edges hand cleaning them with a scrubbing brush and ensuring any paint splashes the decorators had left were removed.
All the waste was extracted, and the floor given a rinse with hot water. I left a small heater on them while I had my lunch. As the gel doesn’t penetrate the tiles like fluid it didn’t take long for the floor to dry sufficiently enough for sealing.
Sealing a Victorian Tiled Hallway Floor
Finally, I applied three coats of Tile Doctor Seal and Go Extra. This is a hard-wearing colour enhancing sealer. Each coat takes twenty to thirty minutes to dry. After the final coat I ask that it’s not walked on for a good hour.
Tumblr media
Once done to the floor looked really clean and the new sealer should keep it that way for many years to come. Before leaving I took time to discuss maintenance cleaning and of course get their feedback which they gladly gave and is copied below:
“Great service. Rupert was professional, informative, friendly clean worker who made a great job of cleaning our original Victorian tiled floor. Tile Doctor were recommended to me by a friend, and I would definitely recommend them and Rupert for tile cleaning.”
For the aftercare of Victorian tiled floors, I recommended the use of Tile Doctor Neutral Tile Cleaner which due to its neutral ph makes it idea for the regular cleaning of sealed tiles. Many of the products you will find in supermarkets are simply too strong and will prematurely erode the sealer on a tile and so best avoided.

Fish or herring bone floors
Title: Unveiling the Enchanting History and Symbolism of Fish Bone Flooring
Introduction:
An unprecedented surge in popularity has bestowed fish bone flooring with a mesmerizing charm that captivates the senses. This captivating design not only infuses elegance and sophistication into interior spaces, but it also resonates with a profound sense of history and tradition. In this article, we embark on a captivating journey through time to unravel the captivating history of fish bone flooring, explore its influence on interior style, delve into the reasons why oak wood is the quintessential choice for this design, and unravel the symbolic significance of the striking "eyes" found in the wood.
Ancient Origins and Exceptional Craftsmanship:
The inception of fish or herring bone flooring can be traced back to the remarkable civilizations of the Romans and Greeks, renowned for their intricate craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. Among their myriad achievements, these ancient peoples embraced the extraordinary beauty and versatility presented by fish bone flooring. It adorned their majestic palaces, lavish villas, and awe-inspiring public buildings, marking the beginnings of a timeless legacy.
The Alluring Fish Bone Pattern:
The very essence of the term "fish bone" lies in the captivating semblance of fish skeletons found within the pattern. The creation of this mesmerizing layout involves meticulously arranging individual wooden planks in a herringbone pattern. The result is a mesmerizing geometric and symmetrical design reminiscent of the spine of a fish. This intricate technique demands the skilled hands of master craftsmen, who meticulously cut and adroitly arrange each piece to achieve a flawless, visually stunning effect.
Shaping Interior Style Throughout the Ages:
Throughout the passage of time, fish bone flooring has gracefully evolved, embracing diverse interior styles and adapting to various trends. During the Renaissance era, it ascended to become a symbol of opulence and magnificence, gracing the floors of majestic royal residences and aristocratic mansions. As the Art Nouveau and Art Deco eras dawned, fish bone flooring assumed a paramount role in infusing lavishness and sophistication within interior spaces.
Timelessness and Versatility:
Contemporary homeowners and designers alike continue to embrace fish bone flooring as an emblem of unmatched allure. Its timeless essence preserves its place within a gamut of interior styles, ranging from traditional to contemporary. The captivating pattern infuses a sense of movement and texture into any room, endowing it with a visually dynamic and captivating allure. Be it a meticulously curated formal dining room, a cozy living sanctuary, or a cutting-edge office space, fish bone flooring adds a palpable sense of richness and depth.
The Supremacy of Oak Wood:
Oak wood, as a wooden floor, stands proud as the unrivaled choice for fish bone flooring, revered for its unparalleled durability and strength. Its innate density and hardness equip it with resistance against natural wear and tear, ensuring longevity that rivals the passing of time. Additionally, oak wood boasts a striking and distinctive grain pattern that further enhances the aesthetic appeal of the fish bone design. This harmonious marriage between the durability of oak wood and the captivating allure of the fish bone pattern results in a flooring masterpiece that is both visually captivating and built to withstand the test of time.
The Alluring "Eyes" in the Wood:
One of the most enchanting attributes of fish bone flooring stems from the presence of captivating "eyes" within the wood itself. These remarkable "eyes" manifest as circular patterns, a unique feature inherent to certain oak woods. The result of minerals infilling pores in the wood, these radiant "eyes" create a mesmerizing visual effect that enchants the onlooker. These captivating "eyes" contribute character and depth to the flooring, elevating its allure to unprecedented heights.
Unveiling Symbolic Significance:
The mesmerizing "eyes" in fish bone flooring hold profound symbolic significance, harking back to the historical realms of ancient cultures. Fish, in these ancient civilizations, were revered as symbols of abundance, prosperity, and fertility. Just as they represent bountiful blessings, the presence of "eyes" within fish bone flooring pays homage to these archaic beliefs and carries forward their sacred resonance.
Conclusion:
Fish or herring bone flooring stands as an eternal testament to a rich and captivating history whilst exerting an undeniable influence on interior style. Its intricate and mesmerizing pattern instills elegance and sophistication into any space it graces, effortlessly integrating with a vast array of interior styles. The unwavering strength and beauty of oak wood make it the perfect choice for this flooring masterpiece, imbuing fish bone designs with durability and aesthetic delight. Furthermore, the presence of captivating "eyes" within the wood adds a layer of character and symbolism that further enhances its timeless allure. Whether in traditional or contemporary settings, fish bone flooring stands as an unmistakable statement, elevating the aesthetic and creating an enchanting ambiance within any interior space.
