By following these tips and setting up a regular cleaning and maintenance program, you can add years of beauty and usefulness to your hardwood floor.
- Sweep or vacuum regularly; built-up grit can damage the floor surface
- Remove spills promptly using a soft cloth and cleaning product recommended by the manufacturer
- Avoid wet-mopping or flooding the floor with water or other liquids; this can not only damage the flooring, but also void any warranties
- Use only floor-care products recommended by the manufacturer
- Keep pets' nails trimmed and paws clean.
- Place protective pads beneath furniture legs and feet to reduce scratches and dents
- Use protective sheets of plywood or blankets when moving heavy objects, furniture or appliances.
- Do not wear shoes with spiked or damaged heels on hardwood flooring.
- Place area rugs in high traffic areas, such as stair landings and room entryways
- Use non-tip pet dishes and rugs or indoor pets
- Place mats on both sides of exterior doors; mats will help catch dirt, sand and other materials that may damage your floor.
