How to Maintain Your New Tiles — Coastal Property Improvements

Advice from Coastal Property Improvements

The beauty and longevity of your home’s tiles depend largely on the care and maintenance they receive. Coastal Property Improvements, a premier provider of kitchen fitting and fixtures services in Poole, knows the value of quality tile care. Whether we’re managing renovations and alterations or providing coast decorating services for a coastal home, tile maintenance is a topic we frequently discuss with our clients. In this blog, we share expert tips on how to care for and maintain your new tiles, ensuring they continue to add value and aesthetic appeal to your home.

Our Tiling Service

Regular Cleaning

Regular cleaning is the first step in maintaining your tiles. Sweep or vacuum tiled areas to remove dirt and dust, as these can scratch the tile surface over time. When it comes to wet cleaning, avoid harsh chemicals that can erode the tiles’ protective layer. At Coastal Property Improvements, our experience in kitchen fitting and fixtures has shown us the effectiveness of mild, pH-neutral cleaners in preserving tile appearance and longevity.

Dealing with Stains

Stains are inevitable, especially in high-traffic areas like kitchens. When they occur, act promptly to prevent them from setting in. Always follow manufacturer’s instructions for stain removal, as inappropriate methods could damage your tiles. Our team at Coastal Property Improvements can recommend suitable stain removal products during our renovations and alterations projects, ensuring your tiles remain pristine.

Tile Sealing

Sealing is crucial for porous tiles, such as those made from natural stone, to prevent water absorption and staining. A properly sealed tile is easier to clean and maintains its lustre for longer. When undertaking kitchen fitting and fixtures for a coastal home, we often recommend sealing to protect tiles from the coastal environment’s potential damage.

Grout Maintenance

Grout—the filler between tiles—requires equal attention. Dirty or discoloured grout can detract from your tiles’ appearance. Regular cleaning with a grout cleaner can keep it looking fresh. In our coast decorating projects, we often suggest grout sealing to prevent staining and facilitate cleaning.

Professional Cleaning

Occasional professional cleaning can help rejuvenate your tiles. Professionals use specialised cleaning and sealing products that may not be readily available to homeowners. At Coastal Property Improvements, we partner with professional cleaning services to offer comprehensive property coastal maintenance, ensuring your tiles always look their best.

Regular Inspection

Regular inspection can catch potential problems early. Look out for chipped or cracked tiles, discoloured grout, or loose tiles. If you notice any issues during your inspection, don’t hesitate to reach out to us for renovations and alterations. We’re here to help you maintain your coastal home in impeccable condition.
