Granite Tile Protection Case Study from Dry-Treat

Blakehurst Home

THE PROJECT:
Blakehurst is a suburb south of Sydney, situated on the banks of the Georges River. The owners of the beautiful Blakehurst home had just finished renovating their backyard and were in need of permanent protection for their granite tiles around a saltwater pool and backyard, as well as the patio. Simon from Bailey Trade Services was tasked to seal 240m2 (2400 sq. ft.) of honed granite.

The sealer had to provide excellent stain protection, be long lasting and kept the look of the granite. It also had to protect against efflorescence and the coastal winds.

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS:

Excellent water and oil-based stain protection
Keep the natural look of the stone
Treatment had to protect against efflorescence and salt spalling, especially from the coastal winds
Protection had to be long lasting

THE DRY-TREAT SOLUTION:

To fulfil all the above requirements, Simon used DRY-TREAT 40SK™ around the saltwater pool and STAIN-PROOF™ Original for the rest of the area.
