As for linseed oil, that is one of worst things you could ever put on your floor. Have a search on the site under linseed oil, you should find a little info on what problems oils cause. Hi Helen,

These floors certainly clean and polish up, please take a look at our portfolio page to see examples. Hi Sarah,

I have a lovely tiled hall made up of red tiles, small blue tiles geometrically placed, with a black border tile. About 3 or 4 of the black border tiles are broken and I'd like them replaced. For this few tiles would it be a costly a job, or should I just live with the cracks? Also, I've heard you can clean and polish these floors. Mine looks dull and has the odd paint mark here and there. Hi.

Have you tried the following companies? www.londonmosaicrestoration.co.uk/services.php or www.mosaicrestoration.co.uk/index.php Hi Mario,

BR1 3NH. The problem i am finding is that i cannot find this side who clean Minton Tiles? Do you know of any company that do this in my area as i have been doing searching for ages.

Oil is one of the more tricky stains to remove, but it can be removed in the greatest majority of cases. Please send through your details and we'll see how we can help. Hi Steve,

Restoration work currently at 12 weeks lead, depending on what is required. Handmade tiles do take a while to manufacture. Hi Simon,
