About TILE care
Even in a busy household, you can easily care for your elegant tile on a weekly basis and keep your surfaces looking outstanding.
Take these preventative and regular tile care steps, as well as effective spill and stain treatment, to maintain your sophisticated surfaces.
Regular Tile Care
The biggest key to effective tile care is sweeping with a gentle bristle broom or dust mop to remove abrasive particles that can scratch the surface. Preventative tile care includes using mats at all entranceways, having footwear removed at the door, brushing pets regularly, keeping all pet nails trimmed, and using area rugs throughout the home as extra protection from foot traffic and spills.
Treating Spills & Stains on Tile
When a spill occurs on your tile floors, you can easily treat it and restore a clean surface:
- Gently lift any solid material with a spoon.
- Wipe up the spill with a clean, dry cloth and paper towels.
- Use a gentle tile-specific cleaner to spot treat the spill as needed.
- You can quickly mop your tile floors or use a Swiffer WetJet system whenever you want an efficient deep clean.
- Use a grout specific cleaner and grout brush to clean grout lines.
