in In my home (includes DIY) MoneySaving
Hello
I have sandstone floor flags in my cellar, i want to seal the flags but i don't know what with, i was looking at Thompson's sealer ( they do a water or a solvent one)or PVA mixed with water. Note: when i leave anything on the floor it seems to draw the moisture to the surface.

Thanks

    Are the flags laid straight on top of the earth ? If so it might be best not to seal them so they can continue to 'breathe'.
