There are so many myths out there about how to clean hardwood floors. Would you believe that some people use water (in a bucket) with a mop (word to the wise – wood and water are not friends!), shaving cream and we’ve even heard Windex! Each manufacturer is different, but you if you clean your hardwood floors with the wrong cleaner or worse multiple cleaners on top of each other you can void that nice long warranty that you received when you purchased your floors. Why not take the time to do it the right way? Not only will you have clean floors, but you will have properly cleaned and well maintained floors with an intact manufacturers warranty!

At Pierce Flooring, we use and recommend the Bona family of products. Bona offers wood cleaners that are safe for all residential hardwood floors that are safe for the environment as well as your family. Other products they offer include tile, laminate and stone cleaners, the proper mops you should be using to apply their cleaners.

Bona’s mission is “Bringing out the Best in Hardwood Floors.” They have been the world leader in hardwood floor finishing and floor care for over 90 years, combining luxury and convenience through a world-class product offering, designed specifically for you and your floors.

Maintaining your hardwood floors involves more than just cleaning. Be sure to use walk off mats at every exterior door to prevent dirt from being trapped on your shoes and entering your home where that dirt or sand can scratch the finish on your hardwood floors. Equally as important, keep the mats clean, too! Also, use chair protectors on chairs with legs. People don’t even think about the damage they do when they get out of a chair. One last tip, ask your guests to remove their high heels (when possible). The pressure of a woman in high heels can leave permanent dents in some species of wood floors.

Between the quality of Bona and the service you get at Pierce Flooring, what more could you ask for in a team?!?
