  1. 6 Tips for Cleaning Hardwood Floors

  2. Vacuum your floor every week • You probably do this already, but it always bears repeating. The reason: underfoot, the fine grit in dust is just like sandpaper and will slowly but surely wear through your wood floor’s finish. So a good vacuuming protects the finish as well as keeps up its appearance. 

  3. Watch the hairspray and the furniture polish • Both of them can cloud your floor’s finish. Wipe them up immediately with a damp cloth. For a more thorough cleanup, spray with non-ammonia window cleaner.

  4. Keep out the rain • Water can not only ruin the finish on a hardwood floor but can penetrate deep into the wood and stain it. Close windows when you’re expecting rain. 

  5. Remove residue with no-wax wood floor cleaner • Keep it in the hall closet or another convenient location so that you can get to it quickly to clean up small problems before they become big ones. 

  6. Use an extra-long “walk-off ” doormat • Get a 4- to 6-foot-long “walk-off ” mat for the front door. The longer the mat leading up to the door, the more people will rub dirt and moisture off their shoes as they walk in, even if they don’t stop to wipe them.

  7. Protect high-traffic zones with area rugs • Walking across an area several times a day eventually wears down a wood floor’s finish. Nice-looking throw rugs are the easiest way to reduce the wear.
