Hardwood floors are one of the top choices throughout homes around the country. They’re perfect for pets, kids, and really, just anything else. But, they also require regular maintenance (just as any other flooring does). Don’t worry- we, here at The Steam Team, have the perfect solutions for you. We’ve got a few tricks up our sleeves to keep those floors looking clean and pristine all year-round.


Dust Floors Daily


This is the most important step you can take when it comes to keeping your floors clean! Dust settles all over our flooring and baseboards (especially if you have a ceiling fan that runs constantly!). So it’s highly important to prioritize dusting when it comes to keeping your floors as clean as possible! Use a microfiber dust mop, as the microfiber material attracts more dust and allergens.  


Mop Floors Weekly


It’s time to start mopping your floors weekly! There are some things to remember when it comes to hardwood floors. For example, too much liquid on hard floors is not good. Some cleaners can eat away at the finish, so it’s important to look out for only cleaners that are meant for hardwood. Just keep these things in mind when you’re developing your cleaning routine!


Polish Floors Quarterly


Are your floors looking dull as of late? Are they lacking the shine and luster that you remember? Your hardwood floors should be polished every two to three months, and don’t worry, the professionals can help you out with that!
