Maintaining Natural Stone Flooring Over the Years

Over time, our natural stone floors begin to reflect the foot traffic and damage they’ve endured. We can’t avoid natural wear and tear, but we can certainly make the right steps when it comes to caring for and cleaning our natural stone flooring. Below you’ll find five easy peasy steps you can take that will hopefully improve the quality and aesthetic appeal of your flooring! The leader in Austin Texas for natural stone cleaning and sealing. 

 

Sweep and Mop Frequently

 

This can’t be avoided! Sweeping and mopping will help control the grit and grime that accumulates on your flooring.

 

Utilize Area Rugs and Door Mats

 

Rugs and mats help to catch dirt that clings to the bottom of our shoes- before it reaches our flooring. You’d be surprised at how much they help out!

 

Daily Spot Clean

 

Spot cleaning will cut down on the amount of work you have to do when you set out to sweep and mop. Use your trusty cleaning solution or a mild detergent.

 

Clean Up Stains, Drops, and Spills Immediately

 

We can’t stress this enough! Drops, spills, stains and accidents should be tended to immediately after they occur in order to keep your floor in tip top shape, and avoid etching and discoloration.

 

Steam Clean

 

And lastly… steam cleaning! Steam cleaning natural stone floors really helps to keep them looking new and well, clean! If your floors are in need of a deep cleaning, you know who to call: The Steam Team.
