Hardwood Care & Maintenance
You've made a great investment by choosing hardwood from Van's. Your new hardwood will last for years, and with the proper care and maintenance, you'll be able to keep it looking new and extend its life. Here are a few tips to help keep your hardwood looking great.
- For day to day cleaning of your hardwood floors, use a soft, fine bristle broom to sweep up dirt and grit.
- You can also vacuum your hardwood floors a couple times a week. Use a soft brush as an attachment.
- Wipe up spills immediately with a lightly dampened cloth, and then follow up with a recommended cleaning product. If liquids are allowed to sit on the floor, they can seep into the wood, causing the finish to split and your floors to warp.
- Oil soaps should not be used as they can leave a residue on the floor. Neutral pH based wood floor cleaners can be used when cleaning. And be sure to dry the floors right away.
