When you begin shopping for the perfect product to clean your floors, you may you’re yourself overwhelmed by the shear multitude of choices out there. In addition, you are not likely to find one product capable of caring for all of the flooring in your home. Nonetheless, whether you’re shopping at your local market, online, or at a specialty stores, every company seems to have the perfect product to clean your flooring.
The perfect cleaner can be found whether you have hardwood floors, laminate, tile, vinyl or laminate floors. There’s a product if not a dozen that will assist you in keeping your floors looking like they day they were installed.
The array of floor cleaning products not only consists of chemicals to clean the floor, but also products to apply those chemicals! No matter what type of floors you have, you need the proper tools to clean them. Before you purchase those products you will need to determine the proper tools needed to keep your floors clean.
1. Brooms/Dust mops: The first step in maintaining a beautiful floor is to daily sweep the debris brought into the home off of the floors. This applies to hard wood, most tiled floors and linoleum. You will want to purchase a soft bristled and angular broom or a dust/dry mop. Dirt, sand, and other debris can scratch hard woods and will discolor the grout in tile flooring. Keeping debris off of the floor is the most important step in maintaining the natural beauty of any floor.
2. Cleaners: The second step in maintaining beautiful floors is the cleaner. For most hard floors including hard wood, all stone tiles and ceramics you will want to use a cleaner that will clean and protect the floor until it’s time to clean again. There are multi cleaners that are available to clean all types of hard flooring. These cleaners gently clean and leave no residue on your floors. For hard wood you will want to purchase a product designed specifically for wood floors. For marble, vinyl, and linoleum flooring you will want to choose a product that will mop and shine the floor in one step. Make sure the product is acceptable to use on no-wax floors.
3. Mops: Just as important as the cleaners, is the tool you use to apply the cleaners. You should use a soft mop when cleaning hardwood floors, typically made with a terry cloth or similar product. This will help to polish the floors as you clean. For tile flooring including slate, stone, and granite it is best to use a cotton mop or a sponge mop. These mops are best for tiled floors with grout and are also very effective on vinyl and linoleum flooring.
With the right tools and the right floor cleaning products, you will achieve success in keeping your flooring looking beautiful year after year.
