Maintenance
General cleaners, not specifically formulated for natural stone or tile, are never recommended. These can breakdown the sealer, thereby removing its protective properties and making the stone and tile grout susceptible to stains. Worse yet, many cleaning products, including those that contain lemon, vinegar, bleach or ammonia can etch away the polish, discolor the surface, or even scratch your stone. Many cleaners contain what is called a chelating agent. This agent breaks down and dissolves minerals in hard water. Since all stone is made up of minerals, these types of cleaners will dissolve and cause streaks with prolonged use. ServiceMaster Residential Care offers the complete line of Spinergy and StoneTech Professional™ Products.
Ceramic Tile & Grout
Ceramic tile and grout is a man-made clay fired material. Glazed ceramic tile does not normally require any protective treatment. It is the glaze itself that gives the tile its excellent protection and resistance to the absorption of dirt. Many of the new ceramic tiles in today's market are manufactured to look like real stone. ServiceMaster Residential Care offers tile and grout cleaning and sealing. For best results, have your ceramic tile and grout sealed and use a neutral stone cleaner, such as Spinergy and StoneTech Professional™ Stone and Tile Cleaner, available through ServiceMaster Residential Care.
Quarry Tile & Pavers Brick
Quarry tiles are an unglazed ceramic material. They are particularly well suited for exterior paving due to their low absorption and resistance to freezing.

For best results, have your quarry tile & pavers brick sealed and use a neutral stone cleaner, like Spinergy and StoneTech Professional™ Stone and Tile Cleaner, available through ServiceMaster Residential Care.
