<h4 class="dechead">On One Hand: Harsh Chemicals Damage Marble
Marble floors may be beautiful, but they do require some extra care when it comes to cleaning. Harsh chemicals cannot be used, as they will destroy the luster of the marble. If you cannot find cleaner that is specifically made for marble floors, you can use common household soap to clean them.
On the Other: Dangers of Soap Dye
The dyes used in household soap may transfer to your marble flooring, even if you use plenty of water. It is best to use a gentle soap, such as Ivory Dish Liquid and to use a very small amount. Look for soap that is dye- and chemical-free before using it on your flooring.
Bottom Line
Household soap, when used properly, can be a great alternative for keeping your marble floors clean. However, it is necessary to use a small amount and to use soap that has no dye added. Proper rinsing and drying is also necessary when cleaning marble floors using this method.
