Laminate Care & Maintenance
In an active home with teens, little kids, and playful pets, you will love how the right laminate care routine minimizes clean-up time!
Preventative Laminate Care
To keep your laminate floors shining, effective sweeping or dust-mopping is the key to regular care! Dusting or sweeping with a soft bristle broom will remove debris, dirt, and pet dander off of the laminate surface before these particles can dull and wear down the appearance. To reduce the presence of abrasive particles, use mats at entranceways, remove footwear by the door during bad weather, and keep all pet nails trimmed appropriately.
Treating Spills On Laminate
There’s no need to stress over spills on your laminate, as these floors are engineered to better resist moisture damage than hardwood floors. However, you should still treat spills as promptly as possible! Start by gently lifting any solid material from the spill, then begin blotting the spill with a dry white cloth or paper towels. Blot from the perimeter of the spill towards the center, then use a gentle laminate-specific cleaner to spot treat as needed. Always consult with your laminate warranty before wet-mopping or using a Swiffer WetJet system to deep clean the floor.
