Daily Tile Care
While tile is easy to care for, proper maintenance will prolong its appearance. Read on to learn more about cleaning techniques and stain removal.
Tile Cleaning Tips
Sweep, vacuum (beater bar always OFF) and damp mop your tile flooring on a regular basis. You may also consider using furniture protectors and area rugs to further protect your tile from scratches and normal wear from heavy traffic. Use hard-surface cleaning products as needed. Be sure to check your manufacturer's care and maintenance guide for approved cleaning solutions.
With inherent moisture resistant properties, you can easily deep clean your tile floors by mopping whenever you see fit! We always recommend using only as much water and cleaning products as needed, and ensuring your floors dry in a timely manner. If your tile floors feature visible grout, invest in a grout cleaner and grout brush to clean these areas periodically and ensure an even, sparkling surface.
For common household spills and messes like water, wine, and pet accidents, immediately wipe away or mop clean. Tile and stone flooring surfaces can get very slippery when wet, so it’s important to keep your tile and stone flooring as dry as possible. Avoid products that contain acids, vinegars, chlorine, and ammonia, as these cleaning chemicals can actually damage or discolor the grout or surfaces of your tile and stone flooring.
Tile installation tips
We can help you determine the best place to install your tile, depending on the type of tile you want to bring home. Our tile installers will lay out your design first and ensure that the type of tile matches your needs. For outdoor tile installation for your patio or other area, we will help you avoid slippery surfaces and porous materials that would be more susceptible to weather damage.
