Routine care & maintenance
Sweeping regularly is essential for maintaining the beauty of your laminate floors. Use a microfiber mop or soft broom specifically designed for laminate flooring. For deeper cleaning, use a recommended laminate floor cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, and excessive moisture, as these can damage the laminate surface. It's important to wring out your mop thoroughly to avoid leaving the floor too wet.
Here are some additional tips to extend the life of your laminate floors:
- Place mats or area rugs in high-traffic areas and entryways: This will help trap dirt and debris before it gets tracked onto your laminate floors.
- Trim pet nails regularly: Long nails can scratch the laminate surface.
- Use furniture protectors under furniture legs: This will help prevent scratches and dents.
Dealing with Laminate spills & stains
Act quickly and address spills promptly to prevent permanent damage. Blot up any excess liquid with a clean, absorbent cloth. Avoid using excessive water, as this can damage the seams. For stubborn stains or cleaning uncertainties, consult the manufacturer's guide to avoid voiding your warranty or damaging your floors.
