Even with good intentions, many homeowners unknowingly use cleaning methods that shorten the life of their hardwood floors. One of the most common mistakes is using steam mops—the heat and moisture can break down the finish and cause planks to warp. Another misstep is using all-purpose or abrasive cleaners, which can dull the surface and leave residue behind. Over-wetting during mopping is also a frequent culprit. Instead, clean with a barely damp microfiber mop and use only pH-balanced hardwood cleaners to preserve the finish and keep your floors looking their best.
