Maintenance Tips for Laminate Flooring

Need a few helpful tips before and in between your scheduled cleanings? Don’t wait for your laminate floor to become dirty or damaged before taking action to maintain them. Consider these preventative measures:

  • Entry mats to help collect moisture, oils, and dirt that tracking from outside. To prevent rugs from slipping, use mat grippers.
  • Use floor protectors to minimize the chances of scratches or scuff marks from chairs, tables, sofas, floor lamps, or other furniture.
  • Frequent sweeping using a floor sweeper or soft-bristle broom can remove most pet hair, dust and dirt that collects on the floor.
  • For hard to reach areas, use the soft brush attachment on your vacuum.
  • Consider the effect of your clothing, too. For example, high heel shoes are not recommended because they can mark and scratch laminate.
  • Treat your dog to a routine mani-pedi. Trimming the nails of your best friend will help preserve the protective layer of your floor.
  • Install window coverings to help reduce the effects of direct sunlight (fading, heat, reflective glare, etc.).
