How to Clean Tile Floors

Tiled floors are probably the easiest to clean, especially because they don’t absorb grease and liquids, which is the problem with hardwood flooring. The coating of the tiles allows them to be cleaned with water and then left to dry on their own.

The best way to clean tile floors is with floor washing liquid and very hot water (the hotter, the better, kettle boiled and immediately used water will help to clean the floors easier). Even candle wax could be removed with hot water.

Washing of the tiled floors should be finished with a mop with clean water as the washing liquid, if not thoroughly cleaned, may sometimes cause dust and grime to stick to the floor.

For difficult to remove stains use a soft brush with concentrate floor washing liquid, and clean thoroughly with damp cloth or a mop after. Be careful not to use abrasive sponges as this could damage the tiles surface coating.

The grout parting between tiles is normally the most affected and difficult for cleaning. Use a toothbrush with concentrate floor washing liquid, remove the dirt with a damp cloth and wash the entire tiled floor with hot (boiled) water only.
