To find out whether zellige tiles are difficult to clean, we first need to understand what kind of tiles they are.
From the production process, zellige tiles are handmade tiles. They are not smooth tiles. Their corrugated surface, uneven edges and small square size are all problems that all handmade tiles cannot avoid, which means that zellige tiles are more difficult to clean than factory-made tiles.
Secondly, from the paving aspect, due to the unevenness of zellige tiles, there will be problems with uneven surfaces and the problem of not being able to completely align the gaps when paving. Regardless of whether the customer is paving with close seams or paving with a gap of 2-3mm, the cleaning of the gaps will be involved, because you have to clean every groove. At this time, the choice of caulking material is crucial. We generally recommend using epoxy colored sand caulking agent in places with heavy oil pollution because it is easier to clean. White cement can be used in the bathroom.
Finally, no matter what zellige tiles you choose, we recommend that you clean them regularly with special detergents and sponges to maintain their beauty.
