How to Protect Your Floors from Summer Wear and Tear

Picture
Summer brings sunshine, longer days, and more foot traffic through your home. Your floors face a serious workout during the warmer months between pool days, backyard barbecues, and kids running in and out. At Advanced Interiors Inc., we want to help you keep your floors looking their best all season long. Here's how:
Tips for Maintaining Flooring During High-Traffic Months
  • Create no-shoe zones: Encourage family and guests to remove their shoes at the door. This simple step helps keep dirt, sand, and debris from scratching or wearing down your floors.
  • Set up entry mats: Durable mats are placed at every entrance to capture a lot of dirt before it enters.
  • Sweep and vacuum regularly: Daily or every-other-day maintenance prevents dirt and grit from building up and causing long-term damage.
  • Address spills quickly: Summer means more outdoor snacks and drinks — and more chances for sticky spills. Blot and clean messes right away to avoid staining and warping.
Cleaning Solutions for Different Floor TypesNot all floors need the same care! Use the right products to keep each flooring type in top shape:
  • Hardwood floors: Stick to a pH-neutral, wood-safe cleaner. Avoid using water alone or harsh chemicals that can strip finishes.
  • Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) and Laminate: Use a damp mop with a gentle cleaner specifically designed for these surfaces. Avoid excessive water to prevent swelling.
  • Tile floors: Sweep and mop with a mild detergent. Clean grout lines regularly to prevent buildup.
  • Carpeted areas: Vacuum frequently and use a carpet-safe spot cleaner for summer spills. Consider a professional steam clean if traffic is especially heavy.
How Rugs and Protective Pads Can HelpRugs aren't just a stylish accessory but a powerful protective tool!
  • Area rugs and runners: Place them in high-traffic areas like hallways, entryways, and under dining tables to minimize direct wear on your floors.
  • Protective pads under furniture: Add felt pads to the bottom of chairs, tables, and sofas. These prevent scratches, dents, and scuff marks — especially important during summertime gatherings when furniture gets moved around more often.
Summer fun doesn't have to mean extra wear and tear on your beautiful floors. With a few simple strategies and the proper cleaning routine, you can keep every room looking its best for future seasons.

Fantastic experience every step of the way - from choosing a sample, to fair pricing, to fast, professional installation... Rick and his team at Advanced Interiors exceeded our expectations. Besides doing the carpet in our own home, we've used them to do carpet and flooring in our rental homes. And we've happily recommended them to everyone we know. When you find a company this good, it's easy to pass their name along because we know everyone will be as pleased as we were!
