one of the reasons may be that it is ideal for allergy sufferers. The stone structure simply absorbs dust and small particles and allows them to sink downwards. This prevents the formation of dust bunnies, which are blown by the draught through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quarzkiesboden.de\/en\/entrance-area-after\/\"><strong>entrance area<\/strong><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quarzkiesboden.de\/en\/stone-carpet-in-the-hallway\/\"><strong>hallway<\/strong><\/a>. Less dirt collects under cupboards and behind the sofa.   <\/p><p>The name stone carpet is no coincidence, as this property is well known to carpet owners. Unlike carpets, however, the dust does not get caught in the fabric fibres, from which it is difficult to remove. The dust collects in the fine recesses of the stone structure and can be removed with a standard hoover.  <\/p><p><em>&#8220;How does this give me an advantage over other floor coverings?

Shoes carry dirt into the living room, snacks fall onto the kitchen floor. What remains are dried stains everywhere. Does the root brush need to be used here?   <\/p><p>Of course, individual stains can also be removed in the traditional way with a cloth, sponge or brush. However, as stone carpet is not sensitive to water, damp mopping is not a problem. On the contrary: warm cleaning water is excellent at removing dried stains from the floor. Due to its structure, the surface of the gravel floor is significantly larger than that of smooth floors such as tiles, which is why the stone carpet dries much faster after mopping than other floor coverings.   <\/p><p>When it comes to cleaning agents, you can achieve optimum results with Qubo\u00ae stone carpet cleaner. The cleaning concentrate is highly dilutable, but can also be used undiluted for stubborn stains. The cleaner is available in a 5 litre set including cleaning brush and spray bottle.  <\/p><p>Solvent-based agents should not be used when <strong>cleaning stone carpets<\/strong> as they attack and

the wet vacuum cleaner<\/strong><\/p><p>Some stains are more stubborn than others, so water, cleaner and a mop are sometimes not enough. How else can you clean the stone carpet? <\/p><p>This is where <strong>stone carpet <\/strong>really comes into i<strong>ts own<\/strong>: While carpets readily absorb all kinds of dirt and liquids and wooden floors quickly show permanent discolouration due to small dents, scratches or scuffs, a gravel floor is <strong>extremely resistant.<\/strong> Thanks to its robust surface, there are no cracks into which dirt can penetrate. Accordingly, even red wine stains do not cause permanent damage. If normal mopping has not brought the desired success, many companies recommend the use of a steam cleaner. As standing water is not a problem for stone floors, this option can also be considered for <strong>cleaning stone carpets.<\/strong> However, very few people own a steam cleaner and both the purchase and regular hire of a steam cleaner are expensive.     <\/p><p>It is more favourable to use a combination of <span style=\"font-weight: bolder;\">sponge and wet vacuum<\/span> cleaner. Stubborn stains can be loosened with warm water and circular movements with a sponge or brush. The excess water is then absorbed by the wet vacuum cleaner. Although this procedure is more work, it can save several hundred euros compared to professional steam cleaners. You can often even find an industrial hoover in <a style=\"font-family: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-size ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-weight ); font-style: var( --e-global-typography-primary-font-style ); line-height: var( --e-global-typography-primary-line-height ); letter-spacing: var( --e-global-typography-primary-letter-spacing ); word-spacing: var( --e-global-typography-primary-word-spacing );\" href=\"https:\/\/www.quarzkiesboden.de\/en\/stone-carpet-for-garages-industrial-flooring\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: bolder;\">garages and workshops<\/span><\/a> that is also suitable for vacuuming up water.    <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34bec49 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"34bec49\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-21f29c2 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"21f29c2\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t<div data-particle_enable=\"false\" data-particle-mobile-disabled=\"false\" class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-00988b1 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"00988b1\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d2c032e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d2c032e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" id=\"hochdruckreiniger\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Balcony and terrace - <span>Can I use a high-pressure cleaner on stone carpets?<\/span><\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-882e84b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"882e84b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default elementor-inline-editing pen\" style=\"color: #2d2723; letter-spacing: normal;\" spellcheck=\"false\" data-elementor-setting-key=\"title\" data-pen-placeholder=\"Eingabe hier...\" data-lt-tmp-id=\"lt-132842\" data-gramm=\"false\"><strong>4. remove coarse dirt from the outdoor gravel floor<\/strong><\/p><p>In <strong>outdoor areas<\/strong>, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quarzkiesboden.de\/en\/stone-carpet\/\"><strong>stone carpet<\/strong><\/a> once again shows what it can do: Seamless and even, it is insensitive to moss and weeds and therefore clearly stands out from paving stones and patio tiles. Even after a hard winter, the <strong>stone carpet patio<\/strong> can be quickly and easily cleaned of accumulated dirt. <\/p><p>Scrubbing and wet vacuuming are not a major problem for smaller stains. However, on larger areas such as <br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.quarzkiesboden.de\/steinteppich-balkon\/\"><strong>balconies<\/strong><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quarzkiesboden.de\/en\/stone-carpet-terrace\/\"><strong>terraces <\/strong><\/a>and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quarzkiesboden.de\/en\/steinteppich-treppe-3\/\">outdoor stairs<\/a>, this approach quickly turns into hard labour. This is why many owners of gravel floors resort to using a high pressure cleaner.  <\/p><p><strong>However, extreme caution is required here!<\/strong> The high water pressure can loosen individual stones from the gravel bond, resulting in holes in the floor after prolonged use. And that&#8217;s not all: the dirt that the pressure washer is supposed to flush out of the pores is only pressed deeper into the stone structure and compacted by the water. What remains is an uneven, damaged floor with extremely stubborn dirt that also impairs the drainage capacity.  <\/p><p>It is perfectly possible to clean larger areas with a pressure washer without causing any damage. <strong>The trick<\/strong> is to use a <strong>brush attachment<\/strong>. A rotating washing brush utilises the power of the water pressure to scrub even coarse dirt from heavily used outdoor steps and patios with little effort, without putting too much strain on the gravel floor. The abrasion-resistant pebble layer ensures that your stone carpet still shines as brightly as on the first day, even after years of use. The brush attachment can also be used to clean the <strong>stone carpet<\/strong> on outdoor surfaces with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.quarzkiesboden.de\/en\/qubo-painting-stone-carpet-logo\/\"><strong>Qubo\u00ae Paintings,<\/strong><\/a> the airbrush artwork from <a href=\"https:\/\/sz-airbrush.de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>sz art of airbrush<\/strong><\/a>.

The reasons for this can be found in the basic structure of the floor and the wet room. Just as the tile adhesive under a tile does not form a completely flat surface without air pockets, pores also remain underneath a sealed stone carpet.  <\/p>\n<p>If, after years, a silicone seam leaks and water from a fitting, for example, penetrates between the wall or floor covering and the seal of the building structure, the transparent pore seal reacts with the water and forms white stains. As these occur underneath the seal, they cannot be wiped away or removed by drying. <\/p>\n<p>This is why insurance companies do not classify stone carpets as suitable for wet rooms and do not replace such coatings in the event of damage. We therefore recommend microcement coatings for showers. With these, there is no water-bearing layer between the floor covering and the substrate, so there is no risk of moisture penetration. Due to the many customization options for microcement, it can also be combined with stone carpeting.
