Hardwood Flooring Cleaning

Hardwood floors are the easiest to keep clean. Unlike carpets, they require minimum maintenance and last for many years. Clean hardwood floors make your house look both beautiful and spacious. Maintenance methods do not depend on the particular type of hardwood floor, but
some varnishes may require extra care when removing stains.

The fastest and most eective way of cleaning a hardwood oor is to use a damp mop. Just make sure that
dust has been removed prior to mopping, because dust particles have abrasive properties. You can use a soft broom or lightweight vacuum cleaner and then simply mop, rinse and repeat several times. It is important to remove grit and dirt from hardwood floors, because they are the major reason behind floors getting scratched,  and scoured.

There is a wide variety of hardwood flooring cleaners available, but a pH neutral cleanser (i.e., with neither low, nor high pH value) and water will do best and is just as effective. Please, make sure the hardwood flooring sealing coat is intact, because otherwise the water-based solution will seep through worn patches, penetrate the floor and cause warping.
