How to clean the shower floor?

12 years ago
I have 2x2 marble tiles (unsealed) in my shower and I'm not sure what product to use to clean them. I've been using baking soda and it's not really effective.

    Contact your tile installer. All tile needs to be sealed. The sealer protects the grout and needs to be re sealed annually.

    Tina - I wanted to let you know how lovely this bathroom design is. It practically takes my breath away. Well done;)

    Your bathroom is Beautiful! This is what I found out about cleaning marble.
    Dry with a towel after each use. Sweep a few times a week for any dirt. Anything loose dirt can scratch the tiles. Once a week clean with a neutral PH (retail stores) cleaner, follow instructions. About every 4 months , seal & then polish to a shine. Sealing helps with staining. Good luck,

    joancuneo, thanks for the comment. I don't believe it is necessary to go to that extreme as I have designed many bathrooms and kitchens with marble If your bathroom is cleaned weekly and you are careful not to spill make-up or other staining elements on the floor, then a good scrubbing with a non-abrasive cleaners is all that is takes. Most of my clients have weekly or twice a month cleaning services and their marble has been just fine.

    LOL. Tina I agree. I would not go to that extreme for my marble. This is what the marble companies tell you. If I had a new bathroom I might do it for 2 weeks. The bathroom is beautiful, I don't want anything to happen. It should be sealed at least 2x a year, if used often.
