Choosing the perfect floor and wall covering depends on several factors, including the desired style, use of the room, budget and personal preferences. Here are some steps to help you make an informed choice:

Define the style: Determine the style or atmosphere you want to create in the room. You can get some ideas of the floors you want from design magazines, online sources or by consulting the Keope configurator (Match App - link). Determine whether you want a modern, rustic, traditional or other look.

Assess the durability: Take into account the durability of the flooring material. Opt for scratch and wear-resistant flooring for high-traffic areas such as hallways or entrances. Conversely, consider more delicate materials for low-traffic areas.

Determine the budget: Set a budget for both the floor and wall coverings, factoring in installation and maintenance costs. There are many options available at varying price points to suit any budget.

Consult a professional: If you're uncertain about your choices and have particular inquiries, don't hesitate to contact a Keope professional. They can offer customised advice based on your needs and budget.

Follow these steps to remove stains from porcelain stoneware floors:

Daily cleaning: Always start with general cleaning of the floor using a soft-bristle broom or vacuum cleaner to remove dust, dirt and debris from the surface.

Neutral detergent: Prepare a solution of lukewarm water and a neutral detergent. Use a broom or soft cloth to clean the floor with this solution. Do not use detergents that are too harsh or abrasive, as they can damage the porcelain stoneware surface.

Food or drink stains: Remove food or drink stains, such as coffee, wine or oil, using a solution of lukewarm water and mild dishwashing detergent. Apply the solution onto the stain, allowing it to sit for a few minutes. Then, gently wipe with a clean cloth. Rinse thoroughly with clean water.

Difficult stains: For more stubborn stains, such as those caused by grease, nail polish or paint, you may need to use a solvent specific for that type of stain. Make sure to read the product instructions carefully and to first test it on a small, inconspicuous area of the floor to prevent damage.

Limescale stains: Use an anti-scale product specifically for porcelain stoneware floors to remove limescale stains. Apply the product according to the manufacturer's instructions, allow it to work for the recommended time and then rinse thoroughly.

Preventive daily cleaning: To prevent the formation of stains, clean the floor regularly and dry it immediately in case of spills. In addition, avoid using products that contain acids or bleach, as they can damage the porcelain stoneware surface.

Always remember to follow the specific instructions of the products used and test them on a small, inconspicuous area before applying on the entire floor. Consult the table showing the products for removing the most frequent stains at this link.

No, joints are always necessary. However, depending on the type of tile or rather the kind of tile edge, the joint can be narrower (2 mm) or wider (up to 5 mm). The laying of tiles generally varies according to the characteristics of the collection itself. It is important to ensure seamless blending of the tiles to keep the grout joints as narrow as possible. If the tiles are rectified (with perfectly bevelled edges), they can be laid with a narrow joint (2 mm) to obtain a refined and elegant effect. The final result is particularly striking and is generally recommended for modern and technologically advanced products, such as large sizes. In the case of more traditional or rustic tiles with non-rectified edges after firing, it is advisable to opt for a slightly wider joint of about 4 or 5 mm to obtain a final effect that aligns with the aesthetic and functional characteristics of the tile. It's worth noting that the narrower the grout joint, the more rigid the tile. In some cases, structural shifts in screeds and floor slabs could lead to tile breakage or deformation.
