We have just bought a house with tile floors. They are 12x12 tiles and are very textured, (groves all over them, that a can get clean). Does anyone one have any ways of cleaning them. I was using bleach water, but I am pregnant and smelling bleach has already sent me to the hospital once. So I need something else that will clean them.Please give me some ideas, on what I can do to cut down on my floor cleaning time.Thanks for all your help!
small amount of white vinegar to 2 gallons of water. about a quarter of a cup.
The best thing for tiled floors is a good mop and boiling hot water. The tiles will dry very quick & leave no streaks. Then you can add a small amout of any floor cleaner and do the same again. as as you have just moved in , sure it might take a few washes to get them how you won?t them. I have ceramic and marble tiles all over my house. I normally just use boiling water and no detergents. Bleach will only fade the color of the tiles. Congratulations & good luck , hope all goes well.
Depending how dirty your floors are. Light clean just use dawn with warm to hot water and maybe some pin-sol or Lysol for a disinfectant not to much. Vacuum floor then mop. Heavier soiled floor you can same soapy water use a soft brush to scrub floors. Like the one you would use to was your car...
