Travertine tiles are most popular for flooring because of the stone’s beauty and adaptability combined for a truly stunning statement. Travertine may be used on almost every surface, including flooring, countertops, bathrooms, outdoor surfaces, and so much more. Travertine not only makes a statement, but it is also quite durable and easy to keep when properly cared for. Here are best ways to clean and care for your travertine:
- Getting Professional Assistance
Your travertine tiles will deteriorate over time due to normal wear and tear. For any sort of flooring, this is completely typical. Having a professional come in and clean, seal, and restore your travertine flooring will assist to extend their life and integrity. We strongly advise against attempting to hone or polish your travertine by yourself. These are methods that, if not done appropriately, can completely destroy your travertine tiles. We have extensive training and know everything there is to know about travertine. We can also analyze a stone floor and tell you exactly what kind of shine we’ll be able to produce or not.
- Scrubbing Pads Shouldn’t Be Used
It is unavoidable that stains appear. The first thing that comes to mind is removing the stain with cleaning pads and detergents. The difficulty with these materials on travertine is that they can scrape or etch the tiles, which are impossible to remove without honing.
- Professional Help Once In a While
We understand that you can’t hire a professional to clean your house every week. You can go for the following professional cleanings:
- Make use of a steam mop. Purchase a high-quality steam mop with microfiber heads and use it on a regular basis. You are not just cleaning but also disinfecting by employing high-heat steam.
- We suggest using a cleanser with a low PH.
- Get Your Stone Sealed
We cannot emphasize how important it is to get your travertine tiles and grout sealed on a regular basis. The sealer we use on your stone and grout is a hybrid solvent-based penetrating sealer that penetrates into the pores, clogs them, and acts as a barrier. This sealant will assist to prevent yellowing and stains.
