Why A Wood Floor?
The reasons why you may select a wooden floor are wide-ranging. These are just some of them.

- Wooden floors can be laid in many different rooms

Daily wear and tear are inevitable. This is not something that you can avoid and even the most careful homeowner will find their floors show signs of wear. Rest assured there are also ways in which you can reduce the risk of damage to any wood floor.
Keeping Your Wood Floors Safe; Our Top Tips –
Place matting outside and inside of every external doorway. Matting also helps to remove dirt and particles that would otherwise enter your home. Having an external mat and an internal rug will offer maximum protection against larger and smaller particles.
It is always a good idea to sweep daily. This also reduces the build-up of particles. If left, they will be carried around on people’s feet. This process works like sandpaper on your wood floor and will possibly damage your floor. This is a process that won’t take long but will also provide maximum benefit to ensure the longevity of your floor.
Cleaning Wood Floors
Using the correct tools, products and techniques is really important. It may be that you are looking to clean a specific mark, or you are cleaning the floors surface. Making sure that you only use products that are specifically designed for wood floors is also very important. You should never scrub the surface of your wood floor with anything abrasive and make sure to use as little water as possible.
