How To Prevent Scratches On Hardwood Floors
Personally, I prefer hardwood floors more than carpet floors. Hardwood floors look more classic and luxurious. In terms of cleanliness and care, it is easier to spot dirt and clean hardwood floors, as long as you remember not to use liquid cleaning products that might warp the material. Here are some tips to maintain the good looks and durability of your hardwood floors.
Hardwood Floor Move & Protect Kit
In general, it costs between $9 to $12 per square foot to install hardwood flooring, considerably more than the $3 to $5 a square foot for carpeting. There is no reason that we shouldn’t protect the hardwood floors. Furniture like your bed, sofa, desk and dresser can all cause damage to hardwood floors, especially on moving day. It is essential to put these SuperSliders Hardwood Floor Move & Protect Kit under our furniture to provide better care and prevent scratches on our floors. In addition to protecting our floors, this kit actually helps with the task of moving, allowing us to slide furniture effortlessly. All of a sudden, moving furniture is a one-person job. The package comes with 36 pieces sliders including hard sliders, felt sliders, formed felt sliders, decorative hard sliders, decorative felt sliders and super sliders kits. They are even reusable, which means you can remove them and use them again and again when needed.
The furniture sliders are not particularly useful when it comes to chairs with wheels, since the wheels would be rendered inutile with the sliders underneath. A chair mat should be used in this situation. A qualified mat must be: anti-slip, thick, sturdy and free from BPA, phthalate, PVC and volatile toxins. Office Marshal’s chair mat does not only have the features above but is also resistant to cracks and scratches. Its smooth surface helps reduce leg and back stress and allows the chair to move easily with enough grip to maintain controlled rolling. Freedom from harmful toxins means it is 100% odorless. More importantly, this chair mat is suitable for underfloor heating. Multiple sizes and two colors are available for both hardwood flooring and carpet flooring.
I’ve been using a Swiffer Sweeper to sweep and mop my floors for years. The cleaning punch is great for trapping and locking dirt. However, the only disadvantage it has is I had to keep purchasing the refills. One of my friends recommended the Professional Microfiber Mop a few weeks ago. I have to say this is the best mop I have ever bought. The handle can be extended to 70” so that no one in the house would have to bend over while mopping. The Microfiber Mop kit includes two Microfiber wet mop pads, one Microfiber dust mop pad, one 6’ adjustable stainless steel mop handle, one heavy-duty aluminum mop frame and two free premium Microfiber cloths. I usually use the dust mop to collect large debris such as dog hair. The heavy-duty swivel can rotate 360 degrees. The frame is ribbed with aluminum that adds more strength to the mop and reaches more area. All of the pads are reusable for hundreds of times. I throw them into the washer once a while to clean them deeply. Using Microfiber mop is more economical and environment-friendly than using disposable products.
