If you've got a beautiful PrimaPorcelain patio in your garden, then it's likely that you'll want to keep it looking its best. While PrimaPorcelain doesn't require the same amount of maintenance as other types of paving slabs that are prone to staining, it still benefits from an annual clean. You might be wondering - will cleaning my porcelain paving change the tile colour? and the answer is - no. If you clean your porcelain paving in the way we outline in this blog, you shouldn't notice any discolouration.

Having put a lot of thought and effort into installing your new, tiled flooring, it's only natural that you will want the quality of the finish to last. Unfortunately, there are many issues which can affect your tiles both indoors about outdoors, such as mould, stains and discolouration. In an attempt to avoid these issues, most people invest in expensive sealants, calling for more expense and effort to be put into on your flooring.
At PrimaPorcelain, we strive to deliver quality products that make your home and garden transformations as simple and stress-free as possible, which is why all of the tiles we stock are largely maintenance free. This eliminates the need to use sealants and expensive cleaning products, making the upkeep of your porcelain tiles as simple as possible.
Here's why our tiles don't require sealing and extensive cleaning:
- 0.5% Porosity - A low porosity level means that your tiles won't absorb dirt and water, making them stain resistant and frostproof!
- Fade Resistant - Our tiles are made in such a way that the raw materials cannot be separated, which means that the pigment is preserved inside of the porcelain. This makes it resistant to UV fading and other normal weathering.

One of the major advantages that comes with investing in Prima's tiled flooring, is that our material is virtually maintenance-free, thanks to its unique design and texture. The main contributing factor to the build-up of dirt and staining is a high porosity level, which means that the material is more absorbent and therefore more prone to picking up marks. Our tiles have a porosity level of only 0.05%, which means that they do not allow moisture to enter the material. This innovative quality removes the need for the application of a sealant, as well as the need for regular, thorough cleaning, alleviating all of the drawbacks associated with natural stone.
Thanks to their anti-stain, low maintenance quality, the only upkeep you should have to perform on outdoor tiles is a clean with warm, soapy water once a year. This is simply to remove any organic debris, such as soil grass and leaves etc. For those using their tiles indoors, a weekly mop is recommended to keep your tiles gleaming and pristine.
Although your flooring should largely stay crystal clear and stain-free, we understand that life can sometimes be a messy business. For this reason, we have put together a handy guide which highlights the best detergents and cleaners for particular stains, ranging from oils and rust to paints and pen marks.
