No doubt, one of the first things people see in your home is the floors. If your home has hardwood floors they’re sure to get lots of compliments, but you know as well as anyone the difficulty in keeping them clean. Below, we want to share with you some tips to keep your floors clean for your big party, or even if you’re getting ready to sell your home.

1. Start By Sweeping

The way to keep your floors clean is to sweep frequently. By doing this, you can keep that dirt and grime off your floors making them look better. If you use a broom, you’ll likely just push the dust and dirt around so the best thing is to use a mop that is for hardwood floors.

2. Use a Hardwood Cleaner

When using your hardwood mop – use a cleaner that is designed specifically for your hardwood floors. By not using just whatever you have available, you’re able to use a cleaner that is built around helping you keep your floors clean.

3. Use A Hardwood Vacuum

Using a vacuum that is built for hardwood floors will help pick up the remaining debris on the floor. This will keep everything in your home looking great!

4. Clean Up Spills Quickly

Perhaps most well know, but most underutilized is cleaning up spills quickly. Responding to these spills in a timely manner (using a hardwood floor cleaner, I might add) will help keep your floors clean and lasting for a longer time.
