These three types of natural stones are made into tiles and countertops. Once processed, Natural Stone flooring installed in Paradise Valley, Scottsdale, Cave Creek, and Fountain Hills, Arizona comes in many finishes. The surface finishes are not limited to dull honed, stain finish, leathered, polished, and flamed appearance based on customers’ preferences and desires. The softer stones such as Travertine, Limestone, Marble are less forgiving with regard to cleaning and maintenance than the harder Slate, Quartzsite, and Granite flooring and countertops. Having a good understating is key to the success of any cleaning process. For this reason, we want to provide you with some cleaning guidelines to help you with your maintenance program.
Here are three things you can do today to take care of your Natural Stone Floors in Paradise Valley Arizona, Scottsdale, Cave Creek, and Fountain Hills, Arizona:
1. Nature stone floors should be regularly vacuumed to reduce the incident of abrasives damaging your stone floors.
2. Use only high-quality stone specific cleaning solutions on your stone floors. We recommend that you use Zep neutral floor cleaner. When floors are great shape the neutral cleaner will help clean without leaving a sticky residue on your grout and tiles.
Too often, housekeepers have mistakenly damaged their customers' Natural Stone by using acidifying cleaning compounds. These acidifying cleaning compounds will damage the stone floors and weaken the groutlines. Never allow your housekeepers to use vinegar or strong over the counter alkaline on your Natural Stone. Improper cleaning will create a soil attracting residue and can etch or otherwise damage your Natural Stone. We recommend that you review the cleaning protocols that you or your housekeeper may be using.
