I recently purchased a home with brick floors in the living areas. They are very dirty and I need advice of how to clean n then seal them.
Thanks,

I'll bet the vinegar, Dawn dish soap, baking soda and some water would do it. Mix together and let sit for about 10 minutes. Then scrub with w good scrubber and pick up the dirt quickly so it doesn't soak back in the brick or grout.
I love brick floors inside a home! You can clean it with a tablespoon of borax in a bucket of warm water and give it a good scrub. I wouldn't seal brick-it's healthy for it to breath

baking soda and vinegar do a lovely job. I add about a half cup bleach to about a gallon of the water, vinegar (about two cups) and then the baking soda (half a box about) . do in well ventilated room.
it will bubble up and foam so make sure you have enough room at the top.
scrub it in. wait a few mins and wash off w clear water. make sure the soda is dissolved.
what I did when we first had a whole room to do was I rented one of those machines you do rugs w. I put the mixture on the floor, scrubbed some and then used the machine as a rinse and lift machine for the rinse.. I rinsed twice.
