How to know when your terracotta tiles need cleaning or restoring
Terracotta tiles should be frequently maintained with a dust and a sweep. If you want to maximise the life of the tiles and keep them looking their best for even longer then you should consider a semi-regular professional clean. A deep clean and polish will clean the floor more thoroughly, remove any bacterial build up and keep the colour looking vibrant.
But exactly regularly should you hire a professional to deep clean your terracotta tiles? One of the most important things to think about is the level of foot traffic the floor gets each day. Usually, terracotta flooring in commercial premises or busy hallways requires professional cleaning more often than quieter areas.
