Be Cautious with Furniture on Tile

To keep your tile grout looking its best for years, one of the most important things you can

do is be cautious with furniture on the tile. Furniture pieces that are not properly cushioned

or have sharp corners can easily scratch and chip away at the grout over time. To protect

your grout, invest in high-quality felt pads for the bottom of all furniture legs and keep them

clean, so they don't stick to your tiles when you move furniture around.

Additionally, try to avoid dragging heavy objects across the floor as much as possible; if

something needs to be moved quickly, place a few thick rugs or blankets down first before

sliding it. These extra steps will help ensure that your tile grout stays in great condition for

many years!
