Caring for Your Laminate Floors

Proper care is essential to protect your laminate floors, preserve their stylish appearance, and ensure their durability for years to come. A consistent cleaning routine can significantly extend the life of your laminate and keep it looking its best.

Routine Care

  • Sweep or Vacuum Regularly: Sweep or vacuum your laminate floors daily or every other day to remove loose dirt, dust, and debris. Use a soft brush attachment or a vacuum designed for hard floors to avoid scratching the surface.
  • Wipe with a Damp Mop: Wipe your laminate floors weekly or as needed using a microfiber mop that is only slightly damp. Avoid soaking the floor with water, as excessive moisture can seep into the seams and cause damage.

Preventative Care

Preventing scratches, scuffs, and moisture damage is key to maintaining the beauty of your laminate floors. Simple habits can make a big difference. Encourage everyone to remove their shoes at the door to avoid tracking in dirt and grit that can scratch the protective layer. Utilize entry mats and area rugs in high-traffic areas to protect the flooring from wear and potential spills. Consider using furniture pads under the legs of furniture to prevent scratches and dents when moving pieces.

Handling Spills

Accidents happen, but acting fast is crucial to minimizing damage to your laminate floors. Wipe up spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. For sticky residue, use a slightly damp cloth with a mild, pH-neutral cleaner specifically designed for laminate floors. Avoid using excessive water, steam mops, or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the surface. For stubborn stains, consult the cleaner manufacturer's recommendations or seek advice from a flooring professional to prevent permanent damage to the finish.
