With summer in full swing, it’s the perfect time to enjoy your outdoor spaces. Cooking on the grill, lounging by the pool, planting your favorite flowers – there’s just no better time in Texas to enjoy the great outdoors. And if you’ve invested in beautiful Terrazzo, marble or Travertine outdoor flooring and countertops, you’ll need to take special care to keep these surfaces clean and protected. 

You may be thinking it makes more sense to wait until the end of the season to worry about your outdoor surfaces, but there are some things you can do to protect them along the way to prevent scratching and staining and minimize normal wear and tear. 

 

Cleaning

First, give your floors and countertops a good cleaning. No need to purchase expensive floor cleaners; just use warm water and a little mild detergent with a soft cloth or mop. Use a traditional mop rather than a Swiffer-type, as it will reach the cracks and pores in your floors and give you a more thorough cleaning. Be careful not to use too much soap, as it could leave a sticky film on your floors that will attract even more dirt and debris. Once you’ve finished cleaning, rinse your surfaces with clean water to remove all soap residue. 

 

Protecting

Another easy way to protect your outdoor stone floors is to add a few decorative rugs and mats. They will enhance your spaces and serve to protect your floors from the extra wear and tear of summer. Put a mat near each door, so guests won’t bring the outside dirt inside. For countertops, utilize drink coasters and placemats and keep a hand towel nearby to quickly take care of spills. Even plain water can stain your stone surfaces, so the quicker you clean up, the better your countertops will look longterm.

Sweep your outdoor flooring and wipe down your outdoor countertops often to keep them looking clean and new. By following these few easy steps, you will protect your outdoor surfaces throughout the summer.

Once summer is over, it may be time to consider a thorough cleaning and/or sealing of your outdoor surfaces to get them ready for next summer and protect them throughout all four seasons.

Why Bizaillion?

At Bizaillion, our restorations go far beyond what you could achieve on your own. We use commercial grade equipment and a diamond abrasive pad to help remove or lighten deep stains on your flooring and countertops. We also use a special epoxy to fill holes and cracks, so they are hardly noticeable. Your stone surfaces are an investment, and with Bizaillion, you can keep them looking beautiful for years to come. 

Our diamond honing and polishing process is second to none in restoring your floors and countertops to their original magnificence. We use a form of polishing called crystallizing, which is the last step in restoring a floor. Most floors will only require crystallizing two to three times over their lifetime. Crystallizing takes extensive knowledge and experience and at Bizaillion, we have no shortage of experience.
