How to Keep Your Hardwood Floors Looking Top-Notch Year Round

Hardwood floors look beautiful in our homes, as long as they’re kept clean and tidy! Wouldn't you agree? Yes, hardwood requires a bit of tender loving care, but what type of flooring doesn’t? Below, you’ll find 3 simple tips on keeping your hardwood floors looking top-notch- all year round! We hope you find them helpful!

 

Utilize Area Rugs

 

One way to protect your hardwood flooring is to utilize area rugs. Area rugs will protect your hardwood flooring from wear and tear caused by shoes! Just be sure to vacuum and pat them clean frequently, as they’ll be collecting the dirt, dust, debris, and sand that your shoes drag into the house. Yuck!

 

Take Your Shoes Off

 

Tip #2: Just take off your shoes! Do you have an old laundry hamper or basket? Place an empty basket near the entrance to your home, and designate it the shoe basket! It’s easy enough. If you remove your shoes at the door, there won’t be any scratches, skid marks, or dirt left on the flooring!
