Wood floors bring warmth and durability—but they only perform as well as they’re maintained.
Keep them clean with regular dust mopping or vacuuming (no beater bar), and use a pH-neutral wood cleaner for routine cleaning. The biggest threat is moisture: wipe up spills immediately and avoid wet mopping or steam, which can lead to cupping, warping, and long-term damage. Maintain consistent indoor humidity (ideally 30–50%) to prevent expansion and contraction, and use felt pads under furniture to minimize scratching.
With the right care, wood floors don’t just last—they age well.
DO:
- Use dry dust mops or microfiber regularly
- Clean with pH-neutral wood cleaner
- Keep humidity stable (30–50%)
- Use felt pads on furniture
DON’T:
- Use excessive water or steam mops
- Let spills sit (especially pet or kitchen moisture)
- Drag furniture across floors
