Care & Maintenance Tips

Caring for luxury vinyl floors is practically effortless. For routine cleaning, remove loose debris with a soft bristle broom, microfiber mop or vacuum with a soft brush or wood floor attachment. For occasional thorough cleaning, use a mop dampened with floor cleaner specifically formulated for luxury vinyl tile. For spot cleaning, use a damp cloth or sponge with a recommended cleaner. Spills should always be cleaned up immediately to avoid any residue or spots and stains. Common products such as nail polish, red wine and permanent markers can cause discoloration, so address any accidents right away.

Proper care and maintenance are crucial for preserving the appearance and longevity of your luxury vinyl tile (LVT). To protect its surface, it is important to promptly clean up spills with a damp cloth or mop using a pH-neutral cleanser. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive tools that can harm the protective wear layer of the LVT. Regular sweeping or vacuuming can also help prevent scratches from dirt and grit.

Entrance mats are a great way to reduce the amount of dirt brought onto the LVT, reducing the need for extensive cleaning. To minimize scratches from furniture movement, make sure to equip them with felt pads. It is also important to avoid dragging heavy objects across the floor, as this can cause irreversible damage.

Maintaining consistent humidity levels in the room where LVT is installed is essential to prevent expansion and contraction, which can lead to long-term damage. Lastly, periodic professional cleanings are recommended to effectively remove deep-seated dirt and grime without compromising the integrity of the flooring material. By following these tips, you can ensure that your LVT stays in top condition and continues to add luxury to your space.
