3 Tips to Keep Marble Floors Looking Nice

Marble floors are a luxurious addition to any business. They add a touch of elegance and sophistication that other flooring materials cannot match. However, marble floors require special care to keep them looking their best. While regular cleaning and polishing from Carr’s Rug Cleaning will help, here are just a few things you can do to keep them looking brand new, as well.

1. Use Rugs in High Traffic Areas

One way to protect marble flooring is to use rugs in high-traffic areas. These areas include the main entryways, bathroom hallways, and lobbies. Using rugs in these areas will help absorb some of the wear and tear that can occur and allow you to show off your company's style. 

2. Clean up Spills Immediately

Another important cleaning ritual to remember is to wipe up spills immediately. Marble is a porous material, which means that it can easily absorb liquids. This can lead to staining and, in some cases, etching of the surface. As soon as a spill occurs, blot it up with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, you may need to use a marble-specific cleaner.

3. Avoid the Use of Aerosols

Finally, our last practical tip for keeping your marble floors looking nice is to avoid the use of aerosol-based cleaning products. These can include air fresheners and other sprays you use in your business. Over time, these products can dull the finish of marble floors, making them look lackluster and dirty.
