Regularly clean your tiles with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, brushes, or harsh chemicals that can damage the surface of the tiles.
For stubborn stains, use a mixture of baking soda and water. Apply the paste to the stain, let it sit for a few minutes, and then gently scrub with a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly with water.
Some tiles, especially those made of natural stone, may require sealing to protect them from stains and moisture. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for applying sealant and reapply as needed.
Place mats or rugs in high-traffic areas to prevent wear and tear. Use furniture pads under heavy furniture to avoid scratches. Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining.
Keep grout lines clean by scrubbing them with a mixture of baking soda and water. For deeper cleaning, use a grout cleaner and a soft brush. Reseal grout periodically to maintain its appearance and protect it from stains.
For specialty tiles like hand-painted or decorative tiles, follow the manufacturer's specific care instructions. Avoid using any cleaning products or methods that could damage the unique finish of these tiles.
