Laminate Care

Start by incorporating some preventative maintenance. Remove outdoor shoes before walking across your flooring so you don't track dirt inside your home. Take care when moving furniture and consider using furniture pads to keep your floors from getting scratched or dented over time. Regularly vacuum using a manufacturer-approved appliance and mop (dry or wet) as needed.

Stain & Spill Removal

For common liquid-based stains such as wine, juice, and pet accidents, simply use a clean cloth and wipe the mess away. Be sure to address liquid spills right away, as laminate flooring is not entirely water-resistant and is prone to moisture damage over time. For more difficult stains, such as wax or oil-based stains, refer to your manufacturer's cleaning guidelines or our common stain removal guide. If you need to use any cleaning products, make sure they are also manufacturer-approved so you do not damage the surface of your flooring.
