Countertops, floors, backsplashes, and other surfaces made of granite, terrazzo, and other stones are popular. To avoid costly damages, these surfaces demand extra care and attention. However, it’s crucial to know which natural stone cleaning and maintenance jobs may be accomplished without the assistance of a professional. The following advice was created to give you the information you need to clean up after your holiday quickly, safely, and successfully.
TIPS FOR CLEANING INSIDE
- Declutter
Decluttering your home and/or workstation is the first step in cleaning up after the holidays. This involves removing all products that are no longer required. Sort all extra stuff into three categories: items to keep, items to donate, and items to dispose of. Remove any rubbish from the house, donate to relevant organisations, and store items that aren’t used on a daily basis.
- Cleaning
Prior to washing the flooring, start with the walls, cabinets, countertops, and other furniture in your post-holiday cleanup. The cleaning solutions that are safe to use on these surfaces are determined by the materials used to make them. To clean most surfaces, even natural stone, use non-acidic, mild detergents.
- Furniture Rearrangement
After clearing and deep cleaning these areas, furniture can be rearranged. Never drag furniture over the floor. Always use at least two people to lift and set down furniture. Rugs should also be used underneath these pieces to protect the flooring.
Tips for Cleaning
Natural stone is popular for patios, driveways, and walks in both residential and commercial buildings due to its stunning curb appeal. These surfaces are more durable than other materials, and with proper maintenance, they can last for many years.
Use a soft mop and cleaning products designed exclusively for these surfaces. Natural stone should never be cleaned with a pressure washer or a bristled brush.
The excess liquid should always be mopped up. Never leave substantial amounts of any liquid on these surfaces, even water. Even if stains do not come out with regular cleaning and a gentle detergent, do not scrub natural stone.
