    Can you give further details, are they ceramic tiles or natural stone? You might find that a granite cleaning solution would be the best bet, or using something like windowlene.

    Ceramic or Porcelain? Find out and ask your local independent tile shop. Polished black Porcelain is a nightmare to keep clean but there are a number of specialist products available from the likes of Lithofin, Fila etc... that do work though.

    Get the correct H&G or Lithofin Cleaner for your tile type and just use that to clean them thoroughly.

    Then use the sealer from the same range. They should have been sealed after installation - bet they weren't - but all is not lost you can bring them back.
