seashell 0 Report post Posted December 4, 2009 from what lsh told me, polished tiles do not have a layer of wax to protect it... those with wax one, after lay, the wax must be removed. the wax is meant to protect the tiles from scratches when laying tiles... mine comes with the wax type... the wax on the tiles is NOT EASY TO REMOVE...but luckily lian seng hin promised to rectify the wax stains... the worker took like 2 hours to polish one room... the whole house hasn't complete in the polish. will post on the outcome...

seashell 0 Report post Posted January 10, 2010 (edited) hi lian seng hin had finised polishing my house. it took them nearly 12hours (2 days) to polish 1 living hall, 3 bedrooms.. outcome... 1) water stains still visible 2) the round marks not very visible, it's like 80% can't see... i am not very satisfied with the end result tou... the worker when using the machine, accidentally hit only my laminate door causing it to crack.. LSH claim they take responsibilty, but then must tell them the damages $$ how much... Edited January 10, 2010 by seashell Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wizi 0 Report post Posted February 10, 2010 is it only glossy tiles that have this problem with watermarks and dust stains??? a neighbor's brother who is a contractor advised my mom to choose "teh cherng" for tiles, what's that in english? ceramic? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poko 0 Report post Posted February 11, 2010 wow! didn't expect the staining issue can be big, i guess, there should be more cases that were not shared here. i am sure not only LSH's tiles are like this. what was the cost of tiles like that have such staining effects. i think if really can't accept then better talk to them especially its our own houses, which we will stay for at least few years before selling off. & talking about that, those undesired stains ( or fresher upcoming) ones can depreciate our units.....

sooks 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2010 i used diamond dusted black tiles with good grip(rough surface) fr lsh for mbr. 2 problems: a) after washing with detergent/h20, dusty residue left almost like cleanning windscreen w dirty h20, b) noticed 'white spots' on almost all the tiles after installation, quite obvious as tiles are black. contractor did a round of acid wash, but could solve a) and very little improvement on b). contractor used thinner to rub on 'white spots' and wash off with h20. Disaster, all the spots that had been rubbed became patches of white on black tiles! the 'white spots' can actually be dug out w sharp pointed tools. still trying to see whether another round of acid wash can clean off the 'patches of white'...
