Marble Renovations Initial Thoughts

Marble floors add elegance to any home interior space. When clean and polished, they are stately and grand. But if you have marble in your home, you know it isn’t without its challenges. Keeping this porous surface both clean and polished can be tricky and requires careful attention.

Marble floor cleaning also requires careful consideration for materials and cleaning supplies. Read on to learn everything you need to know about your marble floors and why it might be a good idea to hire professionals to help maintain these beautiful floors.

Understanding Marble and what makes it stain or etch

If you are lucky enough to have marble in your bathroom, you know it adds upscale beauty. The colour variations of marble add a level of sophistication to any space. Yet, the beauty of marble comes with some complications too, especially in the bathroom.

Why does marble stain and etch?

Marble is a metamorphic rock that is made of limestone that has been exposed to high temperatures and pressures. Over time, the stone changes in colour and texture, which is how marble get its unique look.

The same process that creates beautiful veins and swirls in the stone also makes it more porous than other types of stone. This means that marble is more likely to absorb liquids and stains.

In addition, because marble is soft, it can be etched by acidic substances. This means that even something as common as lemon juice can leave a permanent mark on your marble floors or countertops.

To avoid staining or etching your marble, you need to take care when cleaning and use the right products.

Choose Cleaning Products For Your Marble Surfaces Carefully

Marble is a delicate material. The wrong cleansers might harm the marble surface. Don't use acid-based cleaners on your shower floor or marble shower tiles.

Vinegar is often recommended for cleaning marble shower tiles, it is a terrible idea. For your marble Bathroom and shower walls, use Ph-neutral cleaners.

Cleaning Products to Avoid on Marble Showers

Not all cleaning products are equal, and this is especially true when it comes to marble. Because marble is soft and porous, you need to be careful about what you use to clean your marble shower floors. Never use harsh cleaning products on natural stones.

Many common household cleaners contain harsh chemicals that can damage marble. These cleaners can strip away the sealant that protects the stone and leave it vulnerable to staining. In some cases, they can even etch the marble.

To avoid damaging your marble, you should steer clear of any cleaners that contain:

Acids, Alkalis, Bleach, Butyl, Ethylene glycol, Hydrofluoric acid, Lactic acid, Muriatic acid, Nitric acid, Phosphoric acid or Sulphuric acid

If a cleaner contains any of these ingredients, it is best to avoid using it on marble.

Cleaning Products that are Safe for Marble

Just because some cleaners can damage marble doesn’t mean you can’t find safe and effective cleaners for this delicate surface. In fact, there are several cleaning products that are specifically designed for use on marble.

When choosing a cleaner for your marble, look for one that is:

pH balanced, mild, non-abrasive, non-acidic.

You can also use a mixture of warm water and dish soap to clean your marble. Just be sure to avoid using any soap that is harsh or contains oils, as this can leave a film on the surface of the marble.

Ensure your marble is kept dry

Although marble in the bathroom is both elegant and stunning, the shower tiles do not like to be constantly wet and covered in soap scum.

Keeping your marble clean is critical to preventing it from absorbing soap scum and water from the shower. Wipe the shower down after usage to prevent water from accumulating on the marble. Keep microfiber towels handy near the shower.

Simply clean the surfaces after showering with a clean microfiber cloth. This prevents mineral deposits from collecting on the porous marble surfaces.
