Natural stone is an absolutely gorgeous addition to any home. Whether it covers your floors, counters, or even your walls- natural stone brings a certain aesthetic to a home. With any flooring, obviously, comes maintenance- and with natural stone, the cleaning is a little different than you might think for other flooring. Here at The Steam Team, our expert technicians are armed with the best equipment and ready to help you clean your home. On today’s blog, we’re going over how best to clean that natural stone (no matter where it is).

Simple Cleaning

First, let’s start by performing a few simple cleaning tasks! This includes sweeping and some light mopping. If you’re using a vacuum instead of a broom, just make sure you’re not using one with cracked or broken wheels that could damage your flooring. You can mop with your trust cleaning solution and a bucket of warm water (as long as the solution has been approved for natural stone flooring). That’s easy enough, right?

Intermediate Cleaning

When we talk about intermediate cleaning, we mean stain removal, or grout cleaning! All too often our grout is neglected, or those stains are just left to stick. When it comes to stain removal, the number one thing you must remember is that your cleaning solution must be meant for natural stone.
