Nice flooring is an important part of your home décor. However, in order to keep your new flooring looking like new, it is imperative that you take proper care of it. In order to get the best results, you need to ensure that you clean your floors regularly, and with the right products. Choose floor care products which are ideal for the type of flooring you are cleaning. Below are some tips for cleaning different types of flooring.

Hardwood & Laminate Floors

The first step in cleaning your hardwood and laminate flooring is to sweep it. Or you can us a vacuum if that is your preference. Next, you should mop your floors, making sure that you use the appropriate cleaner. Look for cleaners that are ready-to-use as these are the easiest to use. These cleaners are also suitable for all the gloss-level finishes. Rinsing should not be required, and too much water could also damage your flooring if it is traditional hardwood. Steam cleaning hardwood flooring is also another safe option.

Vinyl Floors

Vinyl flooring can be kept looking great for longer by regularly cleaning it with the same steps used for hardwood and laminate flooring. Make sure the cleaner you use is safe for vinyl flooring to avoid damaging it.There are also some great products on the market for restoring the luster to your floors. Armstrong’s Shinekeeper, for instance, can restore the look of high gloss vinyl flooring.

By using the helpful tips above, you will have sparkling clean floors in no time! And if you were looking for assistance with your housekeeping needs, then do not hesitate to contact The Maids of Rhode Island, in Coventry, RI.
