Individually wash tiles with detergent

  Removable rubber tiles should be cleaned individually by hand since mopping may damage the floor underneath from standing water — causing stains, mildew, mold, etc. Instead of regular mopping, JL Rubber recommends using a gentle detergent or mild soap and warm water for handwashing purposes. They recommend washing tiles daily to weekly, depending on how heavily trafficked the floor is. For example, rubber tiles used in a home gym or kid's playroom should only need weekly washing, but commercial venues and high trafficked areas in your home should be washed daily or as needed.

Vacuum and sweep regularly

JL Rubber also recommends sweeping and dry vacuuming often to reduce dirt build-up and maintain the integrity of the rubber flooring. Daily sweeping is ideal, especially considering rubber flooring is usually installed in areas that tend to accumulate dirt quickly. Vacuuming once a week is adequate for most home gyms or playrooms. Use discretion based on your circumstances and specific use for your rubber flooring.

Consider vacuuming between interlocking tiles with the hose attachment, as it will help maintain the integrity of the floor underneath, prevent dirt build-up that can attract bugs, and more. Both sweeping and dry vacuuming are recommended for interlocking tiles and permanently installed rubber flooring. Permanent rubber flooring can also benefit from daily or weekly wet mopping with a mild detergent and mopping pad. Remember not to mop removable interlocking rubber tiles, as leftover water and soap can damage the floor underneath — instead, hand wash the tiles regularly.
