There’s no denying hardwood floors are beautiful. And you want to keep them beautiful. Believe it or not, it doesn’t take a lot of work to keep them looking their best. The most important thing you can do is simply keep them swept. Dirt and grit are the worst things for your hardwood floor. Small pieces get caught between shoes and the wood and leave tiny scratches. Over time, these scratches will add up and the overall result will be dullness. Simply sweeping or vacuuming a couple of times a week will greatly prolong the brightness and shine in your wood floor. Don’t forget, your hardwood floors swept you off your feet, so turnabout is fair play.
Hardwood Floor Cleaning Tips
Occasionally, you will need to clean your wood floor, but regular sweeping or vacuuming to remove grit will also reduce how often you actually have to clean it. We recommend Bona hardwood floor cleaning products. Cleaning your wood floor is not difficult either. After vacuuming or sweeping, simply mist a small area of your floor (approximately 4’ x 6’ area) with Bona cleaner. Then, using a slightly damp Bona Micro Plus cleaning pad on a Bona Micro Plus mop, clean the floor in a gentle back and forth motion. Finish each area before moving onto the next. If your mop head starts looking dirty, rinse it and wring it out, reattach it to the mop and continue.
