Daily Laminate Care
In the middle of a busy week, you will love how easy it is to care for your attractive laminate floors! The more preventative measures that you can take, the easier it is to keep your floors shining. Use mats by all entrances and encourage guests to scrape footwear before coming inside. During rainy or snowy weather, have all footwear removed by the door to prevent dirt, mud, moisture, ice, and slush from reaching the laminate surface. Also, use area rugs throughout the home as another layer of protection for your laminate floors against foot traffic and spills.
Life with Pets on Laminate
Laminate floors are a great fit for a home with pets! Take these wise steps to make life with pets even easier:
- Make sure to keep all nails and claws trimmed to prevent scratches.
- Brush pets to reduce the amount of hair and dander.
- Place food and water bowls for pets on mats with the appropriate backing for laminate floors.
- A high-character texture, finish, or mixed-shade laminate floor will look fresher between cleanings.
