Laminate Flooring Care & Maintenance
Although low-maintenance, laminate flooring benefits from regular cleaning and simple preventive measures.
Daily Maintenance
Sweep or vacuum with a soft-bristle broom or a hard-floor vacuum to remove dirt and debris.
Cleaning Laminate Floors
Mop with a damp microfiber cloth and a laminate-safe cleaner. Avoid excess water and steam mops, as laminate is not fully waterproof.
Protective Measures
Use felt pads under furniture and place rugs in high-traffic areas. Avoid dragging furniture across the floor to prevent scratches.
Repair and Replacement
Inspect for chips or damage. Laminate planks can often be replaced individually if necessary.
Final Thoughts
With simple cleaning routines and preventive measures, laminate flooring can stay beautiful and resilient for years.
