Problem: Article: Cracked tiles will accumulate buildup and dirtiness more quickly than those without any. These may need to be replaced or repaired. Uneven tiles may require a professional to grind, hone, and polish them flat. Note any stains and try to determine what caused these. Knowing the source of a stain will make it easier for you to eliminate later if general cleaning techniques don't work. Abrasive and acidic cleaners will damage to your stone. Check the labels of all cleaners before using them to make sure they don't contain either of these. Before using a cleaner, test it on an out of sight part of the stone to verify that it won't damage or discolor. Cleaners that are specially formulated for the kind of stone used in your shower will likely be the safest to use. Water remaining on your tile will eventually evaporate, leaving behind minerals that cloud your stone, dirtiness, and more. After every shower, use a squeegee or soft towel to wipe away excess water and prevent this from happening. Many squeegees come with suction cup hangers that you can attach to the wall of your shower. This way, your squeegee will be easily accessible after showering. Your feet can grind small debris, like dirt, into your stone tile, wearing it down over time. This can cause it to lose its luster. Place a non-slip mat on the tile and vacuum under it occasionally to suck up these small particles. Clean mats at least once a month to prevent stains from hiding underneath them and increasing in severity over time. Etch marks are usually caused by an acid. Remove any dirtiness first with general cleaning methods. Apply a suitable stone polishing powder to the tile. Use a damp cloth to rub the powder into the stone in a circular motion. Continue rubbing until the etch mark disappears. Some of your shower products may contain acids. Take care to keep these off your stone to prevent etching. Etching that is especially deep may be impossible to remove with polishing powder. In these cases, call a stone repair or maintenance professional. Professional cleaners have special tools and techniques that can extract dirt or grime that may have impacted the pores of the stone, which causes dullness. Have your tile cleaned by a professional when thorough cleaning fails to restore the stone's luster. Persistent stains or blemishes that are difficult to treat may require an expert. Call a stone care professional, installer, or restoration specialist to treat problems like these.
Summary: Evaluate the condition of your stone. Avoid abrasive and acidic cleaners. Remove excess moisture from the tile after showering. Protect the condition of the tile with a non-slip mat. Polish out etch marks. Hire a professional to deep-clean your stone tile.
