Maintenance Instructions for Colour Sealed Floors

Cleaning Sealed FloorsWhen cleaning tile floors that have been colour sealed, the first step is to determine what is the right type of cleaner for your floor. When cleaning tile floors, it is essential to use neutral or alkaline cleaners, as these types of cleaners are necessary to effectively clean protein based soil. For best results in cleaning colour sealed grout and tile floor, we recommend buying a high quality commercial neutral concentrated cleaner or alkaline based concentrated cleaner for heavy build up.

How to Clean Tile Floors and Grout

  1. Always begin with sweeping or vacuuming your entire floor thoroughly to remove all loose dirt and dust before wet cleaning
  2. Dilute 250 mL of pH Neutral concentrate cleaner with 4 L of warm water, or as directed on the label
  3. Apply diluted cleaner to the floor generously with a mop, allowing to stand on floor for 3 – 4 minutes. This will allow cleaner to emulsify and loosen any dirt and soil on your floor
  4. Use original mop and cleaning solution to pick up soiled water
  5. Allow to stand for 3 – 4 minute
  6. Using fresh, hot mop water, a final mopping will ensure the removal of any residual soils on the floor surface

After a while you may find yourself thinking, why does my floor look uneven after I clean it? If this happens, it may mean that it is necessary to use a higher concentration of your cleaning solution to get the best results. In situations like this, a simple modification of the previous steps is necessary.

  1. Mix a solution of 10 parts water and 1 part cleaner concentrate
  2. Follow steps 3-6
  3. Repeat step 6, as you have used a much higher concentration for deep cleaning and will need to ensure that all of the dirty and cleaning solution residue has been removed from the floor.

In some cases, it may be necessary to hire occasional professional cleaning services where commercial tools will take the cleaning process to the next level. Strassburger Tile Perfection offers professional home cleaning services in southwestern ontario.
