Simple Steps to Maintain Beautiful Laminate Floors
Laminate floors offer stunning looks and impressive durability, but they still require some preventative maintenance to keep them looking their best. Here are some simple steps you can take:
- Doormats: Place doormats at all entryways to trap dirt and debris before they get tracked onto your laminate floors.
- Furniture Pads: Protect your floors from scratches and dents caused by furniture by using furniture pads.
- Regular Cleaning: Laminate floors are easy to maintain! Regularly sweep, dust mop, or vacuum your floors to remove dust, dirt, and debris that can scratch the surface over time.
Regular Care for Laminate Floors
Maintaining the beauty of your laminate floors is easy with a simple cleaning routine:
- Use the Right Tools: When vacuuming, use a soft-bristle attachment or a hard floor setting – avoid the beater bar, which can damage the surface.
- Microfiber Marvels: Microfiber mops are a great choice for regular cleaning. Use them with a manufacturer-approved laminate floor cleaner diluted in water.
Addressing Laminate Floor Spills
Spills can damage laminate floors if not addressed promptly. Here's how to handle them:
- Blot Up Spills Immediately: Act fast! Use a clean, absorbent cloth to blot up spills without spreading the liquid.
- Manufacturer-Approved Cleaner: For tougher spills, use a damp cloth with a manufacturer-approved laminate floor cleaner. Avoid using soap-based detergents, abrasive cleaning products, or steam cleaners, as they can damage the laminate surface.
- Manufacturer's Guide: If you're unsure about the appropriate cleaning solution for your specific laminate floor type, consult your manufacturer's guide or contact Classic Flooring Center for expert advice.
