Sweep, vacuum (beater bar always OFF) and dry mop your hardwood flooring on a regular basis. If your hardwood needs more than just a dry surface clean, make sure to check your manufacturer's care and maintenance guide for approved cleaning solutions.

If your flooring needs more than just a dry surface clean, use a manufacturer-approved cleaning solution and follow their guidelines. If you find your floors need a periodical deep cleaning, always hire a local professional floor cleaning company. For recommendations, speak with one of our Floorida Floors store representatives!

Occasional spills and stains are inevitable, especially if you have pets or kids. Most liquid spills will wipe away simply with a cloth. You'll want to do this as quickly as possible, as hardwood flooring is not water-resistant. Other spills, such as wax or nail polish, are more complex. For these, you'll want to consult your manufacturer's care guidelines.
