Tile Flooring

Tile and stone are the right choice for your home, if you’re looking for the easiest to maintain flooring! Minimal daily care and maintenance along with a deeper clean once a week is really all it takes to keep your flooring looking like new.

We still recommend you incorporate some care and maintenance into your daily and weekly cleaning routine. Our flooring specialist at BMG Flooring & Tile Center put together the following care and maintenance tips for your tile and stone flooring:

Tile Care and Maintenance Tips

  • Keep your tile and stone flooring clean by daily sweeping, dusting or vacuuming to clear away dirt, sand and grime and keep the surface looking polished.
  • Unlike hard surface flooring, it’s also recommended to use either steam cleaning or a wet mop at least once a week with a manufacturer approved cleaner that is also compatible with grout.
  • For common household spills and messes like milk, beer, soda and pet accidents, immediately wipe away or mop clean.

Tile and stone flooring surfaces can also get very slippery when wet, so it’s important to keep your tile and stone flooring as dry as possible. After wiping away wet messes, dry the floor with a micro-cloth or towel.
