Use Furniture Protectors
As a homeowner, you can help protect your floors simply by avoiding unnecessary marring or scratches. While some scratches will naturally occur over time from traffic, pets, and other movements, many can be avoided. Adding furniture protectors or sliders is one way to maintain healthy hardwood flooring. It will also increase the lifespan of your floors and reduce the number of times you need to polish, buff, and refinish them. Soft furniture protectors come in all shapes and sizes and are easily added to the bottoms of furniture legs. When furniture is moved across the flooring, it won’t scratch the surface. Plus, this makes moving furniture easier on you without creating additional strain on your body. It’s a win-win for you and your flooring!
Use Gentle Cleaning Solutions
It’s important to keep your hardwood floors clean. However, using harsh chemicals to clean your hardwood floors is one of the worst things you can do for them in the long run. Over time, harsh chemicals can wear away at the wood, creating discoloration, scratching, or uneven wear and tear. Therefore, while it’s important to stay on top of cleaning your floors, it’s even more important to make sure you are using eco-friendly and gentle cleaning solutions. Using items like straw brooms on wood floors can cause scratches. Ask your Flooring Expressions representatives for advice on what you can use every day to keep your floors clean and healthy.
