A GON Reader Asked:

Maria,

Cleaning ceramic tiles, to me, is the worst! Any ideas to share?

Thank you,

Eileen W.

Maria Gracia Responded:

Hi Eileen,

Thank you for asking. Your absolute best defense for cleaning ceramic tiles is to keep them as clean as possible in the first place. The longer they're neglected, the more time and energy you're going to have to put into cleaning them. Plus, sand and grit left about may permanently scratch and damage the surface.

Use a microfiber duster, like a Swiffer, for daily tidying.

As needed, if there is any sticky residue on the tiles, an expired credit card can be used to gently scrape it off.

For weekly (or twice-a-week) cleaning, fill a bucket (or your bathroom sink) with hot water, a half cup of vinegar, and a TINY BIT of dish soap...emphasis on tiny. If it's a small surface, you'll only need a few drops...increase a bit if it's a larger surface. Then, either clean with a mop (floors) or by hand (walls). You're also going to have to follow up with another mopping or hand cleaning session with plain hot water.

Finally, dry the surface(s) with a clean, dry cloth. Don't air dry...it will leave spots.

There aren't too many tips to do this differently, except to keep up with it. And plan something fun afterwards to help make the work you just did a bit more rewarding.

If you have years of build-up, specifically on the grout, that's going to take a commercial grout cleaner and a lot more work. Some folks use a paste of baking soda and water...and a toothbrush. You can actually apply the baking soda paste to the grout and allow it to sit overnight. You can also use a steam-cleaner.

Or, better yet, get a professional cleaning service to handle this task for you if it's in your budget.

Finally, don't wear outside shoes in the house. There's a much greater chance of tracking in dirt and gravel, which makes keeping ceramic tile floors that much more challenging.
