Niagara Falls Stone Floor Cleaning And Maintenance Tips

Stone floors are a popular option right now because of the beauty they add to your home’s aesthetic. Stone flooring has been used for centuries because of its durability and the wide range of options you can get from it. Before you go adding stone floors in your home though, it is important to know how to safely maintain and clean them to keep them in their best, natural condition. 

Stone Floor Cleaning In Niagara Falls

From our stone floor cleaning experts, here are the steps you need to take to keep stone floors clean without causing unnecessary damage:

• Remove surface build up by dust mopping, vacuuming and sweeping floors regularly. Dirt and other debris can settle and form layers on your floors, making cleaning more difficult. To keep grime from forming on your floors, you need to keep the broom and vacuum nearby. 
• Use warm water to wipe up spills or spot treat. Stone is porous and can absorb chemical cleaners, so you want to try to use water whenever possible. If a cleaner is necessary, use a small amount of dish soap or a simple neutral all-purpose cleaner. If you are unsure whether a cleaner is safe for your stone floors, do not use it until you consult a stone floor cleaning expert (like PCS Niagara). 
• Blot spills instead of wiping or rubbing them. This will prevent spreading and staining, especially if you clean them up right away. 
• Avoid any abrasive materials like steel wool because they will scratch the surface. Instead, use microfiber towels to safely clean stone surfaces.
• Products that contain vinegar, lemon juice, or other acid can mar stone surfaces, and ammonia based cleaners can dull the surface so avoid using any of those products. 
• Consider using a sealant to protect your floors.
• When in doubt, call for help. Before attempting to put any cleaner on your floors that may cause damage, or if an unsightly stain occurs and you do not want to make it worse, call in the stone floor cleaning professionals at PCS Niagara.
