Avoid Excessive Moisture: While Minton Tiles are durable, excessive moisture can seep into cracks and cause damage over time. Wipe up spills promptly and use rugs in areas prone to moisture.

Avoid Heavy Impact: Though durable, Minton Tiles can still chip or crack if subjected to heavy impacts. Use furniture protectors and take care when moving heavy objects.

Sealing: Consider applying a sealant to protect the tiles and enhance their longevity.
