All materials should be inspected before installation. Use constitutes acceptance, no claims will be accpeted after installation unless there are defects among the tiles. Ensure the correct product has been received and that there are no defects in the tiles. We recommend that you use a sealer prior to grouting the stone. This allows you to have the best possible construction site protection. Application of a sealer does not change the natural appearance of the stone. Instead, it resists grout dye absorption, which eases the removal of excess grout residue and protects against stains.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE
Ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone require regular vacumming and cleaning. For deep cleaning, contact your local chemical provider for best results.
TYPES OF MATERIAL
CERAMIC:
Ceramic is a man-made material made from clay that has been permanently hardened by heat in a kiln then glazed over. It comes in a myriad of colors and/or patterns. They can also have different textures such as glossy, matte, and crackle.
NATURAL STONE:
Quarried natural stone is prone to variations in color, veining, pattern, and texture. Those differences in stone should be considered as the charm and beauty of the material, and not material flaws. The actual product delivered may vary from the picture shown. In addition, any product ordered at a later date is not guaranteed to match the original product. We suggest sealing all natural stones.
PORCELAIN:
Porcelain is a man-made material made from clay that has been permanently hardened by heat in a kiln then glazed over. It comes in a myriad of colors and/or patterns. They can also have different textures such as glossy and matte. It is much denser than ceramic, thus it is recommended for all interior applications and sometimes exterior applications.
SURFACE TREATMENTS
Surface treatments use various hardening techniques to offer a way to tailor the surface properties of a material without changing the bulk properties. SpearTek Tile and Stone, LLC (“SpearTek Tile”) provides honed, honed & filled, unfilled, brushed, tumbled, polished and split face surface treatments for our tile and stone products.
HONED (H): A honed stone has a satin smooth finish with little or no gloss. If a honed stone is designated “unfilled” (UF), the surface may have visible natural cavities.
BRUSHED (BR): A brushed stone is finished with a coarse wire brush producing a smooth, though slightly textured, matte finish.
TUMBLED (TMBL): A tumbled stone has rounded edges and corners, often some surface pitting, and a powdery finish.
POLISHED (PO): A polished stone has the smoothest finish available on a tile. A polished stone will appear more saturated, have greater color depth and visible detail than other finishes in the same stone.
SPLITFACE (SPLT): A stone that is split so that the surface of the stone exhibits a natural quarry texture.
FILLED (F): A polished stone has the smoothest finish available on a tile. A polished stone will appear more saturated, have greater color depth and visible detail than other finishes in the same stone.
