Spring Cleaning: Hardwood

Nothing welcomes us home like a tidy place that we can be comfortable. Hardwood floors can be hit hard by winter weather, so try these tips to get your floors ready for summer guests:

• Know your finish. Before you pull out any sponges or mops, know how the wood is sealed.
• Get rid of surface dirt and debris with a dry mop of vacuum before using wet products.
• Use a damp (not soaking) mop, using the manufacturer-recommended cleaning product or products.
• Before the spring mud undoes your work, be sure to use floor mats in high-traffic areas.

And as always, we have a team of experts at American Flooring to show you the latest in hardwood floors. Contact us today.
