Hardwood & Laminate Flooring

Damp mop (not soaked!) with pH-neutral cleaner (e.g., Bona). Avoid vinegar (can damage finishes).

For engineered hardwood, use urethane-based wood flooring adhesive. For solid hardwood, nail-down installation is preferred.

Use felt pads under decor, avoid dragging items, and apply furniture wax for a protective layer.

Sprinkle baby powder or graphite powder between floorboards, then sweep into cracks. For stubborn spots, secure loose boards with finishing nails.
