Hardwood Flooring
Timeless Beauty, Built to Last
Care & Maintenance for
Hardwood Flooring
Hardwood flooring brings timeless beauty to your home, but a little regular care helps keep it looking its best, especially in Florida’s humid climate.
Everyday Protection
Minimize dirt, sand, and moisture by placing mats at entryways and removing shoes indoors. Use area rugs with hardwood-safe backings in high-traffic areas for added protection.
Cleaning Tips
Sweep or dust-mop frequently with a soft-bristle broom to prevent scratches. Avoid harsh chemicals and use hardwood-approved cleaners and dry cloths to spot-clean spills. Always refer to your manufacturer’s care guidelines before mopping.
Pet-Friendly Practices
Trim pet nails regularly to prevent scratches and brush them often to reduce shedding. Place mats under food and water bowls to guard against moisture damage.
Spills & Stains
Clean spills promptly to avoid water damage. Blot (don’t rub) using a dry, clean cloth, starting from the edges and working inward. Spot-treat with a hardwood-safe cleaner if needed, and ensure the area is completely dry afterward.
