Daily Laminate Cleaning
When it comes to keeping your laminate floors shining around the clock, the preventative measures you take will aid these extremely easy-to-maintain surfaces! Start by using mats at all entranceways so guests can scrape their footwear before entering, thus preventing dirt, debris, mud, and gravel from reaching your floors. During inclement weather, place a shoe rack by the door and encourage guests to remove footwear completely before moving through the home. Keep all pets groomed regularly to reduce hair and dander in the home and keep all pet nails trimmed. These helpful steps will help keep your durable laminate floors looking their best!
Dirt & Debris
It’s important to effectively remove dirt, debris, dust, and pet dander before these particles become abrasive and wear the laminate surface over time. Sweep with a gentle bristle broom or dust-mop your laminate floors regularly or as frequently as possible. Although high-character laminate visuals with realistic distinctive markings can camouflage particles between cleanings, removing dirt and debris will help minimize the effects of daily life.
Spills & Stains
When spills do occur on your laminate, there's no need to stress. Laminate floors have innovative constructions that are better prepared to resist moisture damage. Simply lift any solid material with a spoon and begin blotting the liquid spill with paper towels or a dry, clean cloth. Start blotting from the perimeter of the spill towards the center and use a gentle-laminate specific cleaner to spot treat as needed. Consult your manufacturer before wet-mopping your floors and ensure a dry surface after cleaning a spill!
