Marble flooring and tiling is seen as an effective way of adding an elegant and wonderful design element to your home. For those who are thinking of replacing then existing floors for example, then marble floor tiles would be an option worth considering.
These natural stone materials are truly stylish, easy to maintain and clean, and come in a wide array of designs and color patterns. For instance, these tiles can either be rough or smooth or will have a pattern on them which may include hand-painted designs and patterns. The more complex the designs and patterns would be, the pricier and more expensive will they get.
The patterns you choose will depend on the room that you are placing them in. if you are intent on installing these types of tiles on the floor, or in the kitchen or bathroom walls or furnishings, then you will probably select a pattern such as leaves or perhaps simple, plain tiles. In your living or activity room, a nice swirl pattern on the tiles could do just fine.
Maintaining Marble Floor Tiles The Simple Way
In making sure your marble flooring will stay in good shape, and retain its shiny glow for years, you simply need to follow the following cleaning guidelines. First, ensure that you keep your surfaces as dust free as possible, by dust mopping it regularly with soft, clean, lint-free mop. You should also clean them carefully with water and a mild neutral-ph cleanser, which was specially manufactured for use in stone surfaces.
You need to remember that acidity/alkalinity or even abrasives present in standard cleansers may cause dulling, etching or scratching. You could also utilize a separate mop or cloth, specifically reserved for stone, and remember to change mop water frequently. Lastly, you need to quickly tend to spills, and not let them leave there to dry and smudge your surface, and it would also be good t use mats at entrances to trap dirt, sand, gravel, and other grime.
