Hardwood | Maintenance

One of the main benefits of hardwood flooring is that they are low maintenance floors that require only a little more maintenance than sweeping on a regular basis to remove dirt. Cleaners are only needed when cleaning spills, removing scuff marks or major cleanings like spring cleaning.

  • place walk off mats at every door that are regularly maintained
  • you can and should vacuum your floors daily
  • use the correct floor cleaner
  • don’t asume that any household cleaner should be safe for your hardwood floors
  • cleaners should be applied with a terry cloth head mop
  • Less is more use only a small amount of cleaner
  • only use wax on floors with a wax finish
  • wipe up spills immediately
  • for stubborn stains like chewing gum or candle wax try using a credit card
  • use technical support
