Hi

The floor of my basement use to be covered by a carpet and underneath it a vinyl tiles. I removed both of them. I am not sure what the floor is made from. Not sure if it is cement of something else. My house was build in 1926.

I took a picture of this floor. you can see it here

My question, do you know from that pic which kind of floor is that (cement or something else). Also any recommendation how to keep it nice. Any material I can put it to clean it, make it better looking, shining etc. I had to remove both the carpet and vinyl because of the water.

Thanks a lotl.


Leza. I can't tell exactly. That floor resembles tiles/stone or
similar with lines at 12 inch by 12 inch. Is there grout along the
horizontal and vertical lines?

If so, it could be cleaned up and used as is.
