Caring for Your Cemcrete Floor: Tips and Tricks | CT Floors

If you have a Cemcrete floor in your home or office, then you know how beautiful and durable it is. Cemcrete is a type of cement-based floor coating that is becoming increasingly popular in South Africa. It is a versatile flooring option that comes in a range of colors and finishes and can be used on both interior and exterior surfaces. But, like any flooring material, it requires regular maintenance to keep it looking its best. In this blog post, we will share some tips on how to take care of your Cemcrete floor.

1. Clean spills immediately

Cemcrete floors are porous, which means they can absorb liquids and stains if they are not cleaned up quickly. To prevent stains from setting in, be sure to clean up spills as soon as possible. Use a damp cloth or mop to wipe up spills, and avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that can damage the surface of your floor.

2. Sweep and mop regularly

Sweeping and mopping your Cemcrete floor regularly will help to remove dirt and debris that can scratch the surface. Use a soft-bristled broom or a microfiber mop to sweep or mop your floor, and avoid using a vacuum cleaner with a beater bar that can scratch the surface of your floor.

3. Use a neutral pH cleaner

When you do need to clean your Cemcrete floor, be sure to use a neutral pH cleaner that is specifically designed for this type of flooring. Avoid using acidic or alkaline cleaners, as they can damage the surface of your floor over time. You can find Cemcrete-approved cleaners at our online store.

4. Avoid heavy furniture

Cemcrete floors are durable, but they can be scratched or damaged by heavy furniture. If you need to move furniture across your floor, be sure to lift it rather than dragging it. You can also place felt pads on the bottom of your furniture to protect your floor from scratches.

5. Seal your floor

Sealing your Cemcrete floor can help to protect it from stains and scratches. You should seal your floor every two to three years, depending on the level of foot traffic it receives. You can contact us to enquire about the maintenance services that we provide.
