Wood Flooring Finishes & Aftercare

Once your new wood floors have been installed, you want to keep them looking their best for as long as possible. As with any surface, your wood floor may be subject to damage from high heels or other hard objects. Always remove these items before walking on a wood floor and consider adding protective felt pads underneath furniture legs and other objects that tend to move around on the floor.

In general, all natural wood floors should be cleaned regularly with a vacuum cleaner and broom to remove the fine dust and grit that can scratch the surface of your floor. For tougher stains and spills, you can use a damp mop.

If you have an oiled or hardwax oiled floor, it’s important to use products that are specifically made for your floor finish. Using the wrong products on your floor can severely damage it, sometimes irreparably. This is particularly true if you have an engineered or laminate floor.
