3 Tips to Clean Your Flooring

Know Your Floors

That’s right – the first thing is to be familiar with your floors. Understand what materials your floors are made of and any best practices to go along with that. For example, with some flooring, you need to be careful about heat.

For some other flooring types, you need to remember to use a minimal amount of water for cleaning. Then there are floors that might scratch easily. It’s important to understand your floors so you can clean them properly, but also so you don’t harm them by accident.

Clean Spills & Stains Quickly

When spills or stains happen, it is important to take care of them as quickly as possible. The longer they set, the more likely they are to leave behind stains and residue, which makes them that much harder to clean up.

One way to keep those floors clean is to watch for spills and stains and tackle them fast. You can spot clean the affected area right away. This gives you the best chance of getting the stain up and not having to worry about a big mess later.

Prepare Before Cleaning

Finally, you can always do a few things before you actually start cleaning. Take the time to pick up things from the floor and prepare the area. If you can, move furniture or heavy items out of the way so you can also clean those spots.

It’s not always feasible to move the couch or the dining room table, but you should move smaller things that are easier to move.

If you plan to mop, be sure to pick up and then quickly sweep the floor first to get any loose dirt and debris out of the way.
