White Oak Floors For Your Home

White oak floors are beautiful, there is no doubt! They go great with pretty much every interior design and especially with some crazy bright coloured furniture. If you are that type of a person, who likes experimenting with styles and designs white oak floors are just for you.
The first positive feature is that they are easy to maintain and do not need a lot of covering with carpets and rugs, they are beautiful enough on their own and will give your room a new feeling. Keep in mind that it is a bit pricier, however because of the aforementioned traits, this type of flooring is quite resistant to scoffs, scratches, mold, mildew and assorted varieties of everyday wear-and-tear.

 If you get tired of the colour at some point you can always change it a little bit thanks to our wood floor restoration service.

Maintaining Your Hardwood Floors

Keeping your floors clean and in good condition is an important step in general house keeping. Flooring, particularly in high-traffic areas, takes a lot of beating and you may sometimes feel as if your floors are never free from injury and insult. Everyone must have in mind some important tips when it comes to maintaining the hardwood floors.

The mortal enemies of wood is moisture and dirt; both of which will most likely settle on your floors continuously. Standing water or liquids can warp the wood and cause it to swell, so addressing spills as soon as they occur is important. Dirt-catching methods such as using entry rugs, leaving your shoes at the door and regular vacuuming and dusting can stave off tiny particles like dust and dirt that can easily scratch the floor.

To figure out the best cleaning method for your floor you need to find out how your wood floors are sealed or finished. Samples are the best way to assess what exactly is underfoot and will enable you to test cleaning solutions and methods. If you have no clue as to what exactly you have then try as best you can to determine if there is any top coat or finish. Floors treated with a urethane finish are the easiest to clean and a quick swipe of a damp cloth will do the trick.
