Easy Tips for Everyday Care

Routine Hardwood Care

Create a regular cleaning schedule to keep your hardwood floors looking their best. Sweeping or dust mopping is essential for removing dirt and grime. Incorporate these additional tips into your routine:

  • Use entry mats: Place entry mats at all entrances to trap dirt and debris before it's tracked onto your floors.
  • Protect high-traffic areas: Consider using rugs or runners in high-traffic areas to minimize wear and tear.
  • Avoid excessive moisture: Wipe up spills immediately and avoid using excessive water when cleaning.
  • Use furniture pads: Place protective pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches and dents.
  • Avoid harsh chemicals: Avoid using harsh cleaning products or abrasive materials that can damage the finish.
