  • Stone floors are a beautiful addition to any home, but they require a bit of extra care to last long. Here are a few tips for taking care of your stone flooring:- Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and dust.- Wipe up spills immediately with a damp cloth.- Use a pH-neutral cleaner and damp mop to clean the floor every few weeks.- Avoid using harsh chemicals or cleaners on the floor.- Place rugs or mats at entrances to help protect the floors from dirt and debris.- Protect your floors from excessive moisture by using a rug in the bathroom and by wiping up any water that may spill.

    Stone floors are beautiful and durable, but they do need some care to last long. Here are a few tips: - Sweep or dust regularly to prevent dirt and grit from grinding into the surface. - Clean with a damp mop using warm water and a mild detergent. Be sure to rinse well and dry completely after cleaning. Do not use vinegar, bleach, ammonia, or other harsh chemicals as these can damage the stone. - Polish occasionally with a commercial stone polish or with a mixture of olive oil and white vinegar to help seal the surface and protect against staining. - Place protective mats or rugs at entrances where shoes are worn to help reduce the amount of dirt and grit that gets tracked onto the floor
