Casting your memory back to school days, it is likely that many of those are lessons and assemblies in the school hall. Traditional school halls usually have wooden floors.

Here are some wood floor myths:
Myth 1: wood floors are expensive
The initial outlay for a wooden floor may be more than other flooring options. However, over time it can be one of the most cost-effective alternatives on the market. When the floor is properly installed, appropriately maintained and treated it can last a lifetime. There are few other floors that are so timeless in their appearance.
Myth 2: wooden floors scratch easily
There is truth in the fact that all flooring shows some wear and tear over time. However, not all floors can be sanded and restored to look like new again. When a floor is installed, a wood finish is applied. The likelihood is that the scratches are in the finish rather than in the wood. Even deeper scratches can be sanded. The options available for restoring wood floors is exceptional and the results can transform a tired-looking wood floor.
Myth 3: wood floors are a challenge to maintain
As with many other things; knowledge is power. Once you are equipped with the correct information, routine maintenance of wood floors proves to be straightforward and easy. Sweeping, dusting and hovering are successful methods of removing dirt and particles. Wet mops and steam cleaning should be avoided due to the fact they introduce excessive water. However, careful selection of an appropriate mop will prove to be really beneficial.
