Laminate flooring is popular because it’s durable, relatively easy to install, and it mimics the look of natural hardwood. At Davie Property Restoration, we can complete the laminate flooring installation process for you so that you can enjoy having new, beautiful floors in your home in no time.
After the laminate flooring installation process, there are few steps you should take to ensure your new floors continue to look great for as long as possible. Here are some of our top tips to care for your laminate floors:
- Promptly Remove Debris – Regularly sweep or vacuum your laminate floors to remove dirt, dust, and debris. You can use a soft-bristle broom or a vacuum with a soft brush attachment for this task. Avoid using a vacuum with a beater bar because this could damage your laminate flooring’s surface.
- Use a Damp Mop – Occasionally damp mop your laminate floors to remove more stubborn dirt or spills. Use a well-wrung mop or microfiber cloth dampened with water or a laminate floor cleaner. Avoid using excessive water because this can seep into the seams of your flooring and cause damage.
- Prevent Water Damage – Laminate flooring isn’t suitable for areas with high humidity or moisture, such as bathrooms or laundry rooms. Wipe up spills promptly using a dry or slightly damp cloth to prevent water from penetrating the seams and causing swelling or warping.
