Tiling Tips.
- To remove a stubborn spot, scrub with a mixture of Davco
Tile and Grout Cleaner, available at Ballarat Tiles
- Use good mats at doorways to keep sand which may scratch
tiles outside.
- If you have high gloss floors, avoid wearing metal
tipped heels on shoes.
- Select the right tiles for your area. Talk to a
reputable distributor.
- Ensure the tiler lays the tiles evenly, with no edges
protruding up and beds the tiles into the adhesive with no
voids under the tile.
- Use gliders under any furniture which may damage the
surface of the tile.
- Avoid dropping heavy objects onto the tiles. Tiles are
not indestructible.
- Clean and sweep your tiles regularly.
- Use just a few drops of soap-less detergent. Don’t use
abrasive cleaners.
- Vacuuming is a great way to clean tiles.
- Efflorescence will disappear with ongoing cleaning. It
is simply a deposit of salts on the surface of the tile or
grout from the rising dampness.
- Select the right tiles for your area.
