Choosing the right detergent is essential for effective floor cleaning. Every type of flooring calls for a specific approach and the right cleaning chemicals.
Types of Flooring
Ceramic Tiles
For ceramic tiles, use mild, pH-neutral detergents. Avoid acidic products, which can damage the grout.
Laminate
Laminate requires special care - use only detergents designed for laminate and avoid using too much water.
Hardwood
For hardwood floors, use specialised detergents that are free of harsh chemicals which could damage the wood.
Types of Dirt
Different types of dirt call for different approaches:
- Oily stains - use a degreaser
- Limescale - use acidic detergents
- Organic stains - use enzyme-based detergents
