Pre-TEst

It is always a good idea to pre-test a small area of your hardwood flooring before using any products. You should always consult your manufacturer for approved cleaning solutions. 

DAILY CARE IS IMPORTANT

To keep your hardwood floors looking pristine for many years, it is important to establish a care routine. How often you sweep your floors will depend on how often they are used, but you may choose to sweep daily or several times a week. You can also use a wet mop on hardwood floors as long as you do not allow water to stand.
