Hardwood flooring adds timeless beauty and a touch of elegance to any space. However, to maintain the shine and durability of your floor, it’s essential to adopt proper care and maintenance practices. Check out what you can do:
Regular and gentle cleaning
Use a soft-bristle broom or a vacuum with a soft floor attachment to remove dust, dirt, and particles that could scratch the surface. Avoid using harsh cleaning products that could damage the floor finish.
Avoid excessive moisture
Moisture is one of the biggest enemies of hardwood flooring as it can cause warping and cracking. Avoid spilling liquids directly on the floor and promptly clean up any accidental spills. Use rugs or doormats in high-traffic areas and in environments with higher humidity, such as the kitchen and bathroom.
Protection against scratches and impacts
Shielding the floor from scratches and impacts is crucial to maintaining its shine. Place adhesive felt pads on furniture legs to prevent unwanted marks. When moving heavy furniture, use protection sliders or ask for assistance to lift them.
Regular finish maintenance
The finish of hardwood flooring is responsible for its shine and protection. Perform regular finish maintenance, such as polishing and revitalization.
