Newly installed porcelain tile has a distinctly radiant appearance. Whether you have porcelain in your entryway or your bathroom, you may be wondering how to keep your tile looking impeccable. Fortunately, with proper care, your flooring will maintain its beauty for years to come. Today, the savvy floor design team from Interior Designs in Holmen, WI, will explain how.

Fortunately, porcelain is a durable and easy-to-maintain flooring option. It’s water-resistant, easy to clean, and continues to look fantastic for years. For that reason, it’s commonly used in the kitchen, bathroom, and outdoor areas, where a few spills and a bit of moisture here and there is inevitable. For routine cleaning, all you need to do is sweep or vacuum, followed by some mopping. Use a nonabrasive cloth, sponge, or mop to wipe everything down with an all-purpose cleaner. You may also wish to purchase a product specifically designed for porcelain tile use. Take special care to clean the grout, which is vulnerable to the buildup of dirt and grime.

What happens when you spill wine in the kitchen or makeup on the bathroom floor? Fortunately, porcelain tile—especially if it’s glazed—will absorb very little or none of the color. You should be able to remove it with just water or a little solution. 

If you notice any cracked or flawed tiles, contact a professional flooring service to repair them right away. Any cracks can trap bacteria, which can lead to mold and other issues. If your grout becomes stained or dingy, hire a professional to clean and reseal it.
