Keep Your Hardwood Floors Looking Beautiful

Care and maintenance of your hardwood floor depends on how your floors are finished. Each manufacturer provides brochures and online guides that are specific to its brand and finish.

Generally daily cleaning only requires a dry sweep or vacuum. Some people prefer to use a hardwood-specific vacuum that has the same design and power as a regular vacuum, but weighs much less and has control settings and features for cleaning wood.
