Simple Steps to Lasting Beauty
Caring for Your Laminate Floors
Regular care is key to maintaining the stylish look and durability of your laminate floors. Your laminate needs consistent, simple attention to keep it looking its best. One of the most important things you can do is sweep or dry mop/dust regularly. This helps remove loose dirt and debris from the surface, preventing scratches and dulling over time. With the right care, your laminate floors will continue to enhance the beauty and practicality of your home for years to come.
Easy Tips for Ongoing Laminate Care:
- Clean spills immediately with a slightly damp cloth or sponge, and dry thoroughly. Avoid soaking the floor.
- Use a laminate floor cleaner specifically designed for laminate. Avoid excessive water, steam mops, waxes, or polishes.
- Place mats at entryways to trap dirt and moisture from shoes.
- Use felt pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches and dents.
- Avoid dragging heavy furniture across the floor; lift instead.
- Trim your pets' nails regularly to minimize scratches.
- Consider using area rugs in high-traffic zones to protect the laminate.
