Take Care of Your Cork Wood Flooring and it Will Take Care of You

Cork wood flooring is spectacular. It is not only gorgeous, it is actually environmentally friendly. I don't think there are many people who have seen true cord wood flooring who would disagree. But like most beautiful things in life, you need to take care of it. Cork flooring is definitely an investment, so you should be knowledgeable about how to take care of it beforehand. The advice in this article will keep your cork floors looking fantastic for many years.

Cork flooring can be scratched by dirt particles, so it is a good idea to sweep up or vacuum your floor often. This should be done weekly to keep it looking smooth and shiny. A tip for cutting down on the amount of floor sweeping you have to do is to place floor mats at any doors that lead into a room with cork flooring. If your guests will wipe their feet before stepping onto your floor, it will help you out (not to mention being the polite thing to do).Only use hardwood cleaners. Avoid just using water. Any spills should be cleaned up immediately. A mop used for mopping your floor should be damp an well-wrung, not soaking wet. Do not use cleaners that are ammonia-based or very abrasive.

Lightly damp mop the floor monthly to maintain its luster.It is best not to move furniture that easily scratches floors. Place floor protectors on the feet of your furniture so that they are not coming in direct contact with the floor. For furniture that is movable, it is best to place it on a mat. And never, ever drag furniture across your cork floor. Furniture should be picked up and sat down carefully.Place a rug or mat on areas of the floor that will be walked on often, such as in certain parts of a kitchen. This will help prevent the floor surface from becoming uneven, as well as helping alleviate overall wear and tear.

Certain types of mats may cause damage to your floor, such as those that have rubber backings, so choose your mats carefully. Your floor should stay dry, with no excess moisture.Do not let there be too much weight or pressure on a single area of your cork floor. Even weight distribution will prevent indentations and help keep the surface looking shiny and even.For rooms that have cork flooring, aim for 50% humidity. If the humidity gets too low, your floor may start shrinking as a result of the release of moisture. You do not want that to happen to your investment.

You may want to invest in a humidifier to make sure your rooms stay humid enough to keep your cork flooring healthy. Cork is not as susceptible to this problem as other types of wood, but don't take the chance.Do not expose your cork flooring to excessive sunlight. It will make your flooring fade much more quickly. Maintain adequate shading in rooms that have cork flooring with drapes, curtains, or other sun-blocking items.Watch out for water seepage from plants or any other entity that holds water. If your plants are seeping water, place something underneath them to catch the water before it hits your floor.

So yes, cork flooring requires some work, but it is worth it! Follow this article's advice and you will be able to enjoy your beautiful cork flooring for many years.
