Tile Care & Maintenance Tips

Follow these practical tips to protect the beauty and durability of your tile floors:

• Sweep or vacuum regularly: Use a soft-bristle broom or a vacuum designed for hard surfaces to remove dirt and debris that could scratch the tiles or stain grout.
• Mop with care: Clean your tile with a damp mop and a mild, pH-neutral cleaner to avoid damaging the finish or grout.
• Clean spills promptly: Wipe up spills right away to prevent stains, particularly on light-colored tiles or grout.
• Seal grout lines: Apply a grout sealer every 1–2 years to protect against moisture, stains, and discoloration.
• Use doormats and rugs: Place mats at entryways to trap dirt and moisture, and use rugs in high-traffic areas to reduce wear.
• Protect against scratches: Add felt pads to the legs of furniture and avoid dragging heavy items across the tile.
• Address tough stains carefully: For stubborn stains, use a gentle tile-specific cleaner and a non-abrasive brush to avoid damaging the surface or grout.
