Natural Stone Care Tips

​
Natural stone is an investment that, with proper care, will maintain its beauty for many years. Follow these simple tips to keep your floors looking their best.
Â
-
Use only pH-neutral cleaners. Avoid bleach, vinegar, ammonia, acidic cleaners, or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the stone's finish.
-
Clean spills promptly. Coffee, wine, oil, and other liquids can stain the surface if left too long.
-
Sweep or vacuum regularly. Dirt and sand can act like sandpaper, causing scratches and dulling the stone over time.
-
Protect your floors. Use felt pads under furniture legs and avoid dragging heavy furniture across the surface.
-
Avoid steam cleaners. Excessive heat and moisture can weaken the sealer and potentially damage natural stone.
-
Remember that sealers provide protection, not waterproofing. Even sealed stone should be cleaned promptly after spills to help prevent staining.
-
Schedule professional maintenance as needed. Periodic deep cleaning, polishing, and sealing will help preserve the beauty and extend the life of travertine, marble, terrazzo, and other natural stone surfaces.
Â
With proper care and routine maintenance, your natural stone floors will continue to look beautiful and perform for years to come.
Tile, Grout & Grout Color Seal Care Tips

​
Â
Proper maintenance helps preserve the appearance of your tile and grout while extending the life of your floors and keeping them looking their best.
Â
-
Use only pH-neutral cleaners. Avoid bleach, vinegar, ammonia, acidic cleaners, or abrasive products, as they can damage grout and reduce the lifespan of the grout color seal.
-
Clean spills promptly to help prevent staining and discoloration.
-
Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and grit that can gradually wear down grout lines.
-
Use microfiber mops or soft-bristle brushes for routine cleaning, and avoid steel wool or abrasive scrub pads.
-
Avoid steam cleaners, as excessive heat can weaken grout and shorten the life of the grout color seal.
-
Keep wet areas well ventilated, especially bathrooms and showers, to help minimize mold and mildew growth.
-
Schedule professional cleaning and maintenance periodically to keep your tile, grout, and grout color seal looking clean, protected, and performing at their best.
Â
With proper care, your tile, grout, and grout color seal will maintain their clean, fresh appearance and provide lasting beauty for years to come.
