TILE QUALITY

Make sure the tile you choose is properly rated for the area in which it is installed.

TILE STAINS AND SPILLS

For common household spills and messes like water, wine and pet accidents, immediately wipe away or mop clean! Tile and stone flooring surfaces can get very slippery when wet, so it’s important to keep your tile and stone flooring as dry as possible.

When cleaning, it’s important to avoid products that contain acids, vinegars, chlorine and ammonia. Certain cleaning chemicals can actually damage or discolor the grout or surfaces of your tile and stone flooring, so it’s important to check with your manufacturer guidelines to ensure you’re using an approved cleaning solution.

Fortunately, many manufacturers produce approved cleaning products to help keep your tile and stone floors looking their best!  TISH FLOORING can recommend the best tile cleaning products for your floor.
