How to Clean Tile Flooring

In a bucket, mix mild dish soap or or the best floor cleaner for tile with water. Then add water to a second bucket.

Dip a microfiber mop or a flat mop into the cleaning solution and squeeze the excess. Then mop the floors, ensuring that you cover the entire area, including the corners. As you're cleaning, use the second bucket to rinse the mop.

Some floors show water spots after they dry. To prevent those spots, use a cleaning cloth to wipe down the floors.

Next, use a floor cleaner that's formulated for vinyl floors. You can also make your own cleaning solution with vinegar and water. Mix one cup of white vinegar or apple cider vinegar with one gallon of water in a bucket.

Then use your preferred solution and a mop to clean the floors.

Use a mild detergent that's specially formulated for stone floors. Mix it with water and mop the floors with the solution. For best results, use a soft mop or microfiber mop.

Leave it on for a few minutes and then rinse with warm water. Don't soak the floors when rinsing.

Apply the grout cleaner into the grout lines and let it sit. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the exact timing. Then use a nylon grout brush or a toothbrush to scrub the grout lines. Repeat the process if needed.

Fill the water tank with tap or distilled water. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions to determine which will work best for your machine.

Choose the appropriate attachment (if needed) and connect it to the steam cleaner.

Guide the steam cleaner over your floor, pressing the steam button to apply steam. Work in small sections.

Once a section has been cleaned, wipe or rinse away any dirt loosened in the process.

Repeat the above steps as needed until the entire floor has been cleaned.

Once finished, allow the floor to dry.
