Bathroom Tiles: how to clean and repair them easily
 | Cleaning the bathroom is a task that you may not enjoy much but it is something you cannot avoid either. After all, you cannot allow the bathroom to get dirty and cluttered which can become an eyesore! Along with other accessories in your bathroom, it is very important to keep your bathroom tiles in proper condition. Irrespective of whether your bathroom wall tiles are cheap or expensive, it is important to clean them periodically as not doing so will let dirt and grime accumulate on the surface. It will not only look dirty but will make bathroom tiles suited for germs and bacteria to grow. It is necessary to clean bathroom tiles with proper cleaning fluids. It would be a good idea to use a cleaning solution that has no acidic properties in it. You can also opt for an eco friendly cleaning fluid for this purpose. Do not try cleaning your bathroom tiles with a hard brush or an abrasive cloth as these can damage tiles. Use a soft and damp cloth to clean tiles with care. If a large section of your bathroom wall is covered by tiles then you resort to a sprayer for cleaning them easily. Bathrooms tend to be moister than any other part of the house and therefore you can use anti bacterial sprays in them sometimes. It is also essential to maintain adequate ventilation in your bathroom. On sunny days, keep windows open for some time so that sunlight can pour in the room. While cleaning the bathroom tiles, you can switch on the exhaust fan to take out the moist air. Even though bathroom tiles are not much fragile in nature, owing to some reasons they may develop chips or thin cracks over time. This may look ugly especially if you have light colored bathroom tiles. This can also allow grime seep in and serve as a breeding ground for mold. You can use tile fillers to take care of this issue and unless the crack is not deep or long, replacing tiles would not be necessary. This can save you from many headaches later. |
