Once they have their marble tiles, QLD residents must know how to keep it clean and free from dirt and moisture. Marble is considered a porous stone and can come in contact with stains and other damage easier than other stones. In some cases, the marble is sealed to help, keeping a daily cleaning schedule can help to prevent damage over the years.
You will probably want to wipe down the marble twice a day with a damp soft cloth. This is quite easy to do and will prolong the life of your marble considerably.
Anytime the marble is wet, whether in a shower stall or in the kitchen, you will want to wipe it down with a dry cloth. It may be handy to keep some dry cloths or paper towels close by for this purpose. You may choose to use coasters for drinks so that the moisture from the glass does not touch the marble.
You can also wash the tiles daily with a marble cleaner, though you will probably only need to do this once a week. These are easily available at most retailers; simply look for a cleaner that specifies it can be used on marble.
You may also want to consider polishing your marble once or twice per month. This will help it stay shiny. However, polishing may only have to be done every other month or even less. Once you notice marble tiles in QLD homes are no longer shiny, polish them then to save yourself some time.
