In many Sanford, FL homes, slippery tile isn’t caused by water.
It’s caused by residue.
Invisible buildup turns safe flooring into a fall risk.
How Residue Creates Slick Surfaces
Over time, grout absorbs:
Soap film
Cleaning chemicals
Body oils
Cooking grease
Hard water minerals
When moisture hits, these substances rise and spread.
The floor becomes slick.
Why Florida Humidity Keeps Floors Slippery
High humidity prevents full drying.
Residue stays soft and active.
This keeps traction low — even hours after cleaning.
Warning Signs of Dangerous Buildup
Look for:
Shiny patches
Sticky feel when dry
Slippery feel when wet
Smears after mopping
These indicate contamination layers.
Why Household Cleaners Often Make It Worse
Many cleaners leave surfactants behind.
Each use adds another layer.
Eventually, floors become polished by chemicals.
