There is no denying the popularity of laminate flooring all around the world today. It has become one of the most favored flooring types for homeowners. However, you will want to make sure that your laminate flooring looks great and last for many years to come. To ensure that this is the case, you need to have a proper cleaning routine for your flooring.

Run a canister vacuum over your flooring regularly 

The first thing you need to do is make sure that a canister vacuum is run over your flooring on a regular basis to get rid of any debris or dirt from the crevices and cracks. There are a lot of good models on the Internet today if you do not have a canister vacuum, so take the time to read the reviews. You will be able to find plenty of useful information online from people who have already purchased and used the vacuum that you are considering.

 

Damp-mop the floor once a month

For thorough deep cleaning, you are advised to damp-mop the floor once every four weeks. You may need to do this on a more regular basis if you have spaces that see a lot of foot traffic. The same also applies to kitchen areas, as they tend to get dirty easily. You should use a mop that has a reusable and washable microfibre head. There are also the ones that come with disposable pads. These are good as well. Use a cleaner to spray the laminate flooring. You will only need to use this sparingly and make sure you choose something that is suitable for this flooring type. 

 

Finding the best cleaning solution for your laminate flooring

As mentioned, there are floor cleaners that have been developed specifically for use on laminate flooring for modern village apartments. It is advisable that you opt for one of these floor cleaners instead of simply using a general floor cleaner. This is because cleaning different floor surfaces differ dramatically. Cleaning stone is not going to be the same as cleaning wood, for instance. Therefore, it is always better to opt for a cleaning solution that has been designed with the material you have in your home in mind. 

 

Should you use a steam mop?

It is not advisable to use a steam mop when it comes to laminate flooring. Most flooring manufacturers will warn against using them. You may even find that your warranty becomes void if you do use a steam mop. The best thing to do is to check the care guidelines for your floor before you consider using a steam map. 

 

Consider hiring a professional cleaning company

Last but not least, it is certainly a good idea to consider using the services of a professional cleaning company. They will ensure that your floors look as good as new for as long as possible. This is especially the case if you have laminate flooring in high traffic areas. 

 

As you can see, there is a lot that needs to be considered when it comes to cleaning your laminate flooring. We hope that you have found the information in this blog post useful.
