Importance of Hard Wood Floor Maintenance
Unlike most floor coverings, wood floors are a long term investment, that correctly maintained, will last the lifetime of the home. Fortunately for consumers, today’s wood floors offer a wide spectrum of product options that are very easy to maintain.

Unlike times past, when people had to get down on their knees to buff their wax floors, taking care of wood floors today requires little effort. The routine maintenance involves protecting the finish from scratches and moisture. If consumers avoid both of those things, they have a handle on most of their wood floor care.

Consumers should realize that their hard wood floors aren’t impervious to an onslaught of spills, grit and water. Every hard wood floor care customer should be educated by the floor professionals in regards to maintenance.

Proper maintenance – both preventative, such as using throw rugs and floor protectors, and routine, such as using the correct wood floor cleaner. Hard wood floor consumers should be aware that using improper cleaners can void their warranty and also cause future problems with re-coating. Wood floor customers should understand maintenance schedules. Depending on the traffic on the floor, most floors will need re-coating at some point. It’s best to call a hard wood flooring professional if you feel your wood floors need some care. Royal Wood Floors services the Milwaukee area and has for many years.

As a hard wood floor owner, you should understand how humidity affects wood floor performance. High humidity can also cause gaps between the floor boards. While specific finish types may require different maintenance, some guidelines apply to all hard wood floor care.

Floor protector pads should be installed on the bottoms of all furniture legs before furniture is placed on the wood floor. Rugs should be placed at all entrances. They help trap grit and absorb moisture before either one has a chance to damage the finish. Rugs should be shaken out, cleaned and thoroughly dried when they get wet. Be aware that area rugs can cause differences in color due to differences in light exposure on the wood. You should expect that floors will shrink and expand with changes in humidity, sometimes leaving small gaps between boards. To minimize changes, humidity control in the spaces or home is recommended.

“The best way to make sure that your hard wood floors are protected and as beautiful as they naturally can be, is to always do the research first or seek professional help. Then problems such as the ones described here can be prevented,” says Allman.
