Cleaning hardwood floors

Cleaning hardwood floors

Granite and Stone

  • Most stone is porous and so you need to wipe up spills immediately before they stain
  • Sweep the floor everyday and use a mop and a mild cleaning detergent such as Zoflora to kill germs
  • A proprietary stain remover will remove grease or oil

Hard Wood

  • Loose dirt needs to be cleaned every day with a static mop or vacuum cleaner
  • The area needs to be thoroughly vacuumed once a week
  • Do not use furniture sprays or oils on the floor as they will make it slippery

Tiles

  • Sweep up loose dirt everyday with an anti static mop or vacuum
  • Tiled floors are easy to be kept clean with a mop and mild detergent

Vinyl

  • Sweep floors with an anti static mop or vacuum
  • Mopping regularly with a mild cleaning detergent. Combination ones such as Zoflora will kill germs and leave a pleasant smell
  • Don’t use harsh cleaners as they will leave a film residue
  • Vacuum thoroughly once a week
  • Remove scuffs with a small amount of white spirit or washing up liquid
