Tips on maintaining Ceramic Tiles


Ceramic Tiles require very little effort to keep clean. A bit of care will keep your tiles looking like new for many years.

Glazed floor tiles are best kept clean with regular sweeping or vacuuming and washing with a solution of warm water and a soapless detergent. Most ceramic tile retailers stock cleaners specifically manufactured for Ceramic Tiles which do not leave residues which can make the floor slippery, dull the floor or even trap dirt.

Glazed wall tiles require little maintenance, however bathroom tiles need a little more care as soap can build up leaving a film which detracts from the tiling's appearance. Wall tiles should be wiped regularly with a soft cloth to remove soap before it dries. Again warm water and a soapless detergent will ensure a gleaming surface. Harsh abrasive cleaners should be avoided particularly on decorated tiles. Citrus based cleaners have become very popular in recent times.

The glaze on ceramic tile is actually glass. If you treat your tiles as you would your glassware, you will not be disappointed!
