Simple Habits to Protect Your Floors and Preserve Their Beauty

Easy Tips Billings Homeowners Can Trust for Long-Lasting Beauty

Always use floor cleaning products recommended by the manufacturer. Using other floor cleaners can void your warranty and possibly damage your investment. Do not use oils, waxes, or furniture sprays as they can leave a residue and create a slippery surface. Remember that water is wood’s worst enemy, so always use a damp mop and do not let any water sit as you are cleaning. Work in one area at a time and allow the floors to thoroughly dry before replacing and rugs or furniture.
