How To Clean Tile and Avoid Soil Film

 

Soil film is a evenly distributed layer of soil that will cause your tile to look dingy over time.  Each time you mop your floor it can actually get worse as you create additional layers of soil on top of the previous layer of soil.  This is called a soil film, if you need help visit maplelandworks.com for more tips.

Routine Maintenance Program To…

Keep Your Tile Clean and Free of Soil Film

General Recommendations

*Purchase a good quality dust mop and sweep your tile floors daily. This is especially important in new installations where the grout has not fully cured. Dirt, mud, and sand tend to ground into the grout mortar from heavy foot traffic.

*Dirt collecting carpet mats should be placed in frequently used entrances and shaken out weekly.

*We do not recommend the use of floor waxes as they can be difficult to remove from ceramic tile floors. As long as your floor is properly sealed and maintained, you should find no need for these products.

*Many tile cleaners are acid based and their use should be limited. Always read the manufacturers label to find out. All acids, no matter how weak, will etch marble surfaces. Natural marble is commonly installed as thresholds in doorways and is also installed in window sills and shower curbs. Discover More about how to avoid any cleaner that contains harsh abrasives.
