Problems With Hard Water

We all know the look when you get watermarks on your new bathroom tiles or your freshly cleaned shower door or screen!

It isnt always the easiest thing to get around, but depending on the tile, but a good sealer can always help.

If you are using an uneven tile, a sealer will help fill the microscopic holes that can hold water and dust residue, if the water and dirt can't get into them, then they wont stain as easily.

It may seem like a pain, but an hour or so doing this before the tiles are used much is much better than a couple of hours cleanng them, then applying a suitable sealer.

You can also apply the same thought to floor tiles. By helping to fill all the possible dirt traps, you will prolong the aesthetic appearance of your floor! It may sound like a pain, and you wont necessarily notice the effect immediately, however, over a period of months, floor tiles subject to heavy foot traffic will inevitably get dirty!

But whatever course of action you prefer, the best thing to do is to clean your tiles regularly. Mild detergent solution, used regularly, worked in and mopped up to help remove the dirt is on of the best ways to help overcome any problems.

By doing this you will avoid the need for more chemical detergents, chlorine based bleach products, although one of the best and oldest remedies is white vinegar for your tiles and taps.
