This type of solution will damage the surface causing discolouration in the future. Take care to avoid any kind of acidic cleaner - these can cause staining problems over time if used to clean sandstone paving, due to reactions between acids and calcium carbonate found in limestone paving.\r\rIf you do want to use some kind of sandstone cleaner to clean your sandstone pavers then consider diluted vinegar or soda crystals (sodium bicarbonate). This type of cleaner is a safer option for cleaning sandstone surfaces that will not damage your sandstone pavers like bleach can.

If this continues unchecked over a long period of time then not only will it cause staining and discolouration but also you run the risk that acid from the mould itself could start etching into the stone's surface which would weaken it. \r\rMould is usually present in dark patches that look like discolouration.\r\rIf you want to clean the mould and algae from your sandstone paving then the first step is to ensure that your sandstone tiles are not regularly getting wet and damp underneath. Sandstone has a porous nature, and a permeable sandstone patio surface will allow water to drain through easily and can help prevent moisture problems, as well as helping to avoid problems such as black mould which loves a high level of moisture. You may also find that there is a risk of some sandstone tiles lifting if the earth beneath them stays constantly wet over a long period of time. If tiles are lifting from the ground, touch the bottom of the pavers or the earth below to see if it is damp or wet.\r\rClean off any loose debris like leaf litter and other vegetation on sandstone pavers before starting work on cleaning the mould and algae - do this with just water and a soft brush. Using harsher chemical is a good way to damage the surface of your sandstone paving.\r\rThe next step in cleaning black mould is to scrub it clean with a dilute solution of vinegar or soda crystals - this solution will kill off much of the mould, leaving just discolouration on areas where there has been a lot of growth. To do so, mix equal parts of vinegar/soda crystals with water. If it's not effective you can add another part of vinegar to the mixture. Keep adding one part vinegar and testing until you're satisfied with the solution.\r\rOnce you have rubbed off any remaining patches or areas of mould and algae clean, wipe away any remaining solution with a mop, soft cloth, or towel. You should be able to make out faint outlines where the damage was done - these are usually quite dark and greasy looking because they are stained by dirt rather than being discoloured limestone itself. If you cannot clean such a stain completely then using a penetrating sealer to seal it in. These types of sealers might reduce stain visibility over time. Additionally, the sealer will also help protect your sandstone from other types of damage, and increase the longevity of the sandstone.

You should then be able to keep up the good work by cleaning and washing down sandstone tiles at least once a year with just water from your garden hose to remove any surface grime that forms over time - this should also help prevent black mould from growing on your stones. Once you have it looking great, give the pool fence a quick go-over.\r\rDo not try cleaning the natural stone around pools with anything too harsh or acidic because this could cause damage, removing the colouring and etching into the surface of your sandstone pavers.

This is usually because they are stained with something which has made its way into your sandstone tiles over time, for example, it could be caused by long-term exposure to oil or some other kind of contaminant which has been spilled onto your sandstone tiles and soaked in.\r\rTry cleaning any affected area with just water from your garden hose first, to see what changes - if you notice some improvement then you will definitely need to do something else for cleaning away the rest of the dirt. \r\rAfter that, give your sandstone pavers a thorough cleaning using just water and soda crystals - this kind of cleaning product is excellent at breaking down stains naturally so it's best to use it first before trying anything stronger.

If you are thinking about doing this for the first time, here is a step-by-step guide.\r\rIf your bathroom has limited space, it is probably better to use the same on the floor and wall tiles of your bathroom. You can play with patterns by combining shapes and matching chair rail. Matching floor and wall tiles creates uniformity throughout the bathroom. \r\rWhen using same tile in darker colours on both walls and the floor, such as dark grey, creates depth which usually gives a more interesting look but additionally white tile or light should be considered since dark tiles attract light less effectively than lighter ones.","bulletData":null,"numberedListData":null,"columnData":null,"imageCaption_1":null,"imageCaption_2":null,"imageURL_1":null,"imageURL_2":null,"numberOfImages":null,"numberOfColumns":null},{"__typename":"SectionData","type":"Text","headingTag":"h2","heading":"Are shower wall and floor tiles the same?","text":"Because of the difference in textures and materials, shower tiles and floor tiles are the same kind. A shower wall tile is usually porous and sometimes comes with a protective sealant, while a tile for floors is usually coated in a low-slip resistant material to make sure they are easy to walk on. \r\rThe idea of matching floor and walls tiles is usually seen as a good move because it assists in creating the illusion that you have more space. \r\rIn a small bathroom, having different tiles or using tiles with patterns in your shower area gives a cramped look and make the room feel smaller. A common solution to this problem is by matching tiles of the complete bathroom so everything fits well together.

There are several different theories on this topic, so make sure you choose something that looks harmonious and does not distract from what is important in your bathroom. \r\rYou may choose to create a contrast with a pattern for a stunning effect by going for a more colourful design for your soap dish, shower curtain or other bathroom accessories. Additionally, you can also take things such as white grout, dark grout or grey border into account. Bathroom lighting such as downlights also plays a role.\r\rIn the case of large bathrooms, or a large shower, having two separate areas with different styles can be an interesting idea because it has more visual impact. However, if you have limited square footage as well as budget then you might want to have a matching wall to opt for a minimalistic look that suits smaller spaces perfectly.

Both these kinds of tile have one thing in common: the floor tile is usually slip-resistant to make sure you can stand on them with confidence and safety.\r\rAlso, small tiles, like mosaic tiles, are more often used on the floor as the water gets to slop around into the grouts. In other words, a tile floor with fewer grout lines can be more slippery when it's wet.\r\rThe main difference between them is that porcelain tile has a glossy finish, while ceramic tiles have a more matte finish. Some people don't like the look of glossy tiles on the floors because they can create unnecessary amounts of glare if there is too much light in the room. You might be able to have them reglazed.\r\rMake sure your tile choices suits your bathroom style and matches the other materials, such as the shower door or shower threshold you have chosen for decorating.\r\rThe floor tiles are usually kept to a certain size so that all the grouts match up well to finish off a good-looking design. Some manufacturers sell only full packs so you may need more than one box, but usually, anywhere between eight and twelve tiles will be enough to cover an area in your shower. If you are not sure, you can always consult your local or designated tile shop. The Northern Territory State Government has a handy guide to refurbishing wet areas in your home. Your local or state government may have something similar.\r\rFinally, you would want to seal the tiles for higher durability. The proper way to seal the floor is by using clear sealant after grouting all your tiles together. You may use an epoxy or polyurethane clear sealant which does not yellow over long periods of time and ensures any cracks or damaged areas are fully covered up for extra protection.
