Cleaning quarry tiles is a real privilege. They are incredibly hard-wearing and can be found in both interior and exterior settings throughout the UK. The fact that they are so hard-wearing means that they are a popular tile choice for high traffic areas such as hallways and kitchens.
Furthermore, they offer a really striking and sophisticated look. Therefore, entrance ways and hallways are an ideal setting for this tile type.
For the fact that quarry tiles are often found in hallways means that they are likely to experience more wear than other floors in your home. It is more likely that people will walk in with their shoes on before removing them. This can leave you with areas where more damage has occurred than others. Or it can leave you with areas where the grout has discoloured more.
Regularly Cleaning Quarry Tiles Can Help
This is a simple and straight forward process. Building a simple and structured routing around cleaning your stone tiles will mean that they will last longer and look better. It sounds like a winning formular. Here are some quick tips for keeping them clean:
- Remove grit, stones and dirt using a soft-bristled brush or hover
- A Ph neutral cleaning solution should be used by using a mop. Be careful not to over wet your floor or leave any dampness on the tiles surface for long.
- Rinse the floor with clean water, ensuring all excess moisture is removed. You can further dry the floor with towels or clothes. This will offer you reassurance that there are no wet patches left that will damage the tiles surface coatings.
