Below are a few important tips to help insure long lasting, brilliant floors.

• Never damp mop a wood floor
• Floors should be cleaned once every 1-2 weeks.
• Remove wet spills promptly using a soft cotton cloth.
• Do not use wax, oil soap, vinegar or other household cleaners. These products can dull the finish and make future cleaning and re-coating difficult.

Preventative Maintenance

Preventative Maintenance goes a long way toward protecting your hardwood floor and helping it look great for a lifetime of enjoyment. Follow these important tips:

• Regularly trim file your pet's claws
• Recoat your floors every 5-6 years
• Never slide furniture across flooring
• Use a humidifier in the winter months
• Install EZ-Glide™ protectors on feet of furniture
• Avoid rubber-backed or other non-ventilated rugs
• Avoid walking on the floors with high heels or cleats
• Use mats or throw rugs at entrances and heavy traffic areas
• Recoating should be done when your floor begins to show wear. A recoat will quickly rejuvenate the floor’s resilience.
