Easy guide to cleaning laminate flooring
Following directly on from my previous article looking into the cleanliness of laminate flooring, this article is intended to give you quick tips on how to clean your own laminated floors.
Follow the steps below to clean your floors effortlessly and effectively:
- Start by sweeping the floor with a soft-haired brush to remove any debris and loose filth.
- Either mix some floor cleaner or make your own by adding about 200-300ml of vinegar to 4-5 litres of water. Avoid floor gloss solutions as these can damage the surface and make the floor too slippery.
- Try to use a microfibre mop for this step as they tend to offer better absorption. Make sure to mop along the length of the laminate sections, usually this is in the same direction as the pattern.
- You can leave the floor to dry on its own. You can speed this process up by airing the room: open windows and doors if possible.
Once you have completed the above steps, you should be left with a clean and sparkling laminate floor.
