Terracotta tiles are strong and give any room a warm, rustic feel. Over time terracotta can lose its shine and can become scratched. This is usually because of dirt and dust which is gradually ground into tiles underfoot.

All of this allows us to deliver high-quality results, making the floor look like it was just laid.
How to know when your terracotta tiles need cleaning or restoring?
It is recommended that terracotta tiles are regularly swept and dusted. However, if you want to maximise the life of the tiles then consider a regular professional deep clean. A deep clean and polish will clean the floor thoroughly and limit any damage from scratches and ingrained dirt.
How often should you hire a professional to clean your terracotta tiles? One of the most important things to think about is how much foot traffic the floor gets each day. Generally, terracotta flooring in commercial areas requires professional cleaning more frequently than flooring in the home.
