Natural stone tile adds timeless beauty and durability to any space, but maintaining its elegance requires proper cleaning and maintenance techniques. To keep your natural stone tile looking its best, follow these steps to clean, seal, and maintain it effectively.

To maintain the durability and longevity of stone tiles, such as marble, limestone and travertine, regular care and the right cleaning products are essential. Start by using a broom or vacuum with a soft brush attachment to remove loose dirt and debris. Use a pH-balanced stone cleaner or mix warm water with a mild dish soap. Avoid any acidic or abrasive cleaners like vinegar or lemon juice which can damage or discolor your natural stone. To ensure the solution is safe for use, test it on a small, hidden area, and look for any discoloration or abrasion before applying to your tile. Using a soft mop or cloth to clean, be careful not to oversaturate the surface, and for tough stains, gently scrub with a soft sponge. Rinse with clean water, and use a damp mop to remove any standing water or soap residue. Complete your cleaning routine by drying the floor thoroughly with a microfiber cloth. 

To continue to protect your stone tile, resealing may be needed depending on the type of stone and the environment it’s in. Regular inspection can help determine when resealing is necessary, ensuring that the stone remains in good condition and retains its aesthetic appeal.
