The Best Way to Clean Laminate

Getting laminate floors installed is a great way to enhance the aesthetics of your home. Like any good thing, however, it starts to lose a little luster over time. The best way to keep your laminate flooring looking fresh and new is to properly maintain it. To make sure that you know the best laminate cleaning tips, The Carpet Guys are here to tell you.

If you have gotten a laminate flooring installation done in your home, you know just how beautiful laminate is. To keep it looking nice for years to come, follow these simple cleaning steps:

• For any kind of wood flooring, always start off by vacuuming using the hard floor application or a soft bristled broom. You do not want to catch any hard items under the mop and drag it across the floor. The scratches it can create will make the floor look terrible.
• Once you have finished with the sweeping, use a micro fiber mop and a cleaner specifically made for laminate flooring. If you do not know which cleaner to use, consult a pro who has a history with laminate for advice.
• Put place mats down in front of each entrance to the room and ask visitors to take their shoes off when coming in. Not surprisingly, most of the dirt and dust is tracked in by shoes. Sweep regularly to avoid any extra problems with dirt intrusion.
• Do not use a steam cleaner on laminate flooring, as it can cause some major damage to it. If anything happens to spill on it, pick it up as soon as possible to avoid any other issues.

By following these simple maintenance steps, you will be able to keep your laminate floors sparkling for years to come. Make sure to consult your local flooring dealer for any other questions.
