Quick And Easy Tile Cleaning DIY

By Phyllis Schroeder


Nobody likes dirty grimy slimy tiles. They are disgusting and no one wants to look at them. You don't need to have your bathroom cleaned professionally. There are many DIY options. Doing it yourself is much easier and quicker and you don't have to spend a dime.

Some choose to use all natural ingredients as cleanser while other are okay with the stronger chemically based solutions. It doesn't matter which one you choose because you can find plenty of tips for tile cleaning Chandler. If the dirt is new and not caked on, you can easily mop it up. However if it has had time to settle then you will need to use a stronger agent to scrub it off. But do note that using less chemicals would be better for the environment and for yourself.

As an all natural cleanser, vinegar is top. It can be used for many things aside from cleaning. It is cheap and it works well to get rid of stains and odors. Baking soda is also another readily available product that can be used for cleaning. It is a gentle abrasive so it makes a good scrubbing paste when combined with vinegar.

The grouting is the part of the tiles that is hard to clean. They are made of a porous material so dirt and dust easily get caught and cause it to discolor. Covering the grout in a sealant will lessen stain absorption. If you spill something sticky, as much as possible try to get it cleaned up quickly. You don't want the stickiness to be absorbed because it will be tough to remove if you let it harden.

Another popular item for cleaning is bleach. When handled correctly, bleach can remove almost any stain and keep your floors good as new. It can be bought at any grocery store. It is very affordable and you can get a lot of use from one bottle of bleach because you just have to mix a little bit with a liter of water and it is still effective and good for cleaning.

Proper ventilation is important when you are cleaning. You don't want to trap the smells of chemicals inside because this can cause you harm. Open the doors and windows and cover your nose. Do not let children use chemicals when cleaning.

Another thing you need to watch out for is if the chemical you use for cleaning is compatible with the material of the tiles. Harsh ingredients could degrade the tile and ruin it. So do a lot of research before you use a cleanser on the tiles. Get a list of the most recommended one in the market.

When handling cleansers always remember to keep them stashed away to make sure that you do not hurt your eyes on the process. Use gloves all the time. Protecting your skin is a priority. Chemicals can burn and leave scars if you do not handle them correctly.

Floors and counters are easy to keep clean as long as you keep the tiles fresh. Don't let spills and messes stay on the floor. Just always keep your place fresh and clean.
