Hardwood CARE & MAINTENANCE

Routine Hardwood Care

Daily care is essential for maintaining the beauty and longevity of your hardwood flooring. Implementing a regular routine of sweeping and dry mopping helps to remove loose dirt and debris that can cause wear and scratches. While most hardwood can handle damp mopping, it is important to avoid allowing water to stand or pool, as it can cause damage. Placing doormats at entrances helps to minimize the amount of dirt tracked onto the hardwood. Additionally, keeping your pets' nails trimmed can prevent scratching.

By following these simple tips, you can ensure that your hardwood floors retain their beautiful appearance for many years to come.

Tackling Hardwood Spills and Stains

Unfortunately, no matter how careful you are, spills are bound to happen. It's crucial to act quickly to prevent stains on your hardwood floors. Blot up any liquid with a clean cloth and sweep any solids. If needed, use a clean, damp cloth to gently wipe away residue, making sure not to let moisture stand. Always refer to your manufacturer's guide before using any cleaning solutions or stain removers to avoid any potential damage to your floors or voiding of warranties. Avoid letting moisture or cleaning solutions linger, as they can harm your hardwood floors.
