  1. 6 Pointers to Keep Your Wood Floor Beautiful Solid wood floors are a great investment not only becaue they look great but also they last a lifetime. No other kind of flooring can match their depth and beauty. And they will look stunning throughout their life-time if you look after them properly. It's simple, and the right kind of care will add life before they have to be replaced. 1. The number 1 enemy of your wood floor is moisture permitted to stand on any your hardwood flooring. It can cause buckling and discoloration. Make certain to dry any spills promptly. 2. Avoid dirt, sand and grit. These 3 act like sandpapering, thereby scraping and dulling the glossy top finish till it ends up being unsightly. Use mats near outside doors to prevent the dirt from getting into your home. 3. Avoid moving the furnishings to minimize damage from scraping and scratching. If you must, always lift rather than push or pull them. 4. Avoid direct sunlight on your floor. It can discolor the timber. Safeguard the sunlit areas with drapes or blinds. 5. Clean your hardwood floor by using a good broom, a canister vacuum with an unique bare flooring attachment, or a good dust mop. 6. Family pets pose a threat to your solid wood flooring as well. They have nails and claws will scratch the top finish. Keep your pet's nails well trimmed. Also, keep pet food containers off the flooring surface. Animals constantly spill food around the containers, which will harm the flooring with time. Use paper or something more durable to protect the floor. If your precious hardwood floor does get a deep gauge in it, just know that it can be fixed. You could buy a scratch filler from the hardware store or have a hardwood floor refinishing contractor come to your rescue. Generally, the "fix" is to sand and smooth the afflicted location and then re-stain and re-varnish. As simple as this may sound, it's not. It takes lots of experience to get a satisfactory outcome and is best left to the professionals. One such professional is West Coast Floor Company in Vallejo and Benicia, CA.
