If you want to keep your marble flooring clean, sweep it frequently. This will remove any dirt or grime that has settled on the surface, leaving you with that attractive marble finish.
SWEEP FREQUENTLY
The general rule is to sweep marble once a week for every person or pet in the house. So, in a single-person household, a sweep a week should be fine.

Twice a week for two people, three times a week for a couple and a dog, and so on. If it's just you and a pack of dogs, you'll probably need to sweep every single day.

We recommend mopping your marble tiles roughly once a month. This can be a long process, but make sure to take your time over it. Rushing through a clean can leave stains and marks that will then require even more effort to remove.
MOP OCCASIONALLY
Start by wetting down the entire area, preferably with distilled, warm water. Use either a spray bottle or wring out a mop, as you want to avoid water sitting. Blot away any excess water.

Next, prepare your chosen cleaning solution according to the instructions. You may find that you don't need much, especially if you're using a mop. The best cleaners are pH-neutral, as these are gentle on the alkali stone.
