our Terracotta AND Quarry tile Cleaning process



Fired clay units have very different properties and sensitivities as regards to cleaning. With the starting point understanding the material. Both glazed and unglazed terracotta, tile and brick surfaces soil most heavily in areas of where there is the heaviest concentration of water saturation. Soiling is commonly concentrated at the edges of blocks in the around mortar or grout joints. Most dirt and soiling is not actually water-soluble so cannot be removed using water alone. While there may be an intense black colour to it, it is usually a very thin layer but is tenacious in resisting removal.
