Laminate | Maintenance

  • place doormats or walk-off mats at each entryway to collect excessive moisture and dirt
  • sweep, dust-mop or vacuum (without a beater bar) your floor to remove loose dirt and grit
  • periodically use a damp mop to restore your floors shine
  • purchase a laminate cleaner specifically made by the manufacturer for your particular floor
  • after damp mopping, use a clean, dry cloth to soak up excess moisture
  • use floor protectors on the bottom of your furniture and when moving furniture, lift rather than drag it across your floor
  • never use abrasive cleaners, steel wool or scouring powder
  • never use soap-based detergents or “mop and shine” products
  • never flood your laminate floor with water or cleaners
  • never attempt to sand or refinish your laminate floor
