There are different levels of cleaning. You can start off with a simple vacuum. Spot cleaning can be done with a soft-bristled brush. Deeper cleaning can be done with a mop and minimal water. Any cleaning product you use should be stone specific and you should never saturate the stone surface. Some cleaning products work better than others. Therefore, it is important to gain advice from your stone cleaning specialist to find out which ones are best for your floor.
