Nice floors

If you want clean, beautiful floors, there are certain tricks and techniques you can use to get the best results. Besides the fact that it is visually more appealing with clean floors, it is also a healthier solution for your health. The vast majority of people spend a large part of their time within the four walls of the home, and therefore it is important to think about what accumulates on the floor - from dirt and bacteria to house dust mites and allergens. In this blog, we will guide you through how to optimally clean your floors.

Sweeping the floor

Before we start with the actual cleaning, it is important to think about how best to prepare your floors for cleaning. First of all, it is a good idea to remove everything you can from the surface - furniture, carpets, toys, etc. Start by sweeping with a broom that is powerful enough to pick up all the dust and dirt from corners and along the walls. If you have wooden floors, it can also be a good idea to wipe with a microfiber cloth , so you are sure that the surface is clean and clear. Once you have swept and mopped, you can continue vacuuming your floor.

Vacuuming the floor

Vacuuming is a great way to pick up dust and dirt that sweeping can't. However, this requires that you have a vacuum cleaner with a filter that is effective enough so that the dust is not blown back into the air. Vacuum cleaners with HEPA filters are good to invest in as they catch even the smallest particles. It is also a good idea to combine your vacuum cleaner with a brush, as it can reach into small cracks and remove dirt and dust from there. Be aware that some surfaces cannot withstand being vacuumed, e.g. carpets, which require a special type of vacuum cleaner.

Floor washing

When you have to wash your floors, it is important to choose the right cleaning agent . Eg. you must pay particular attention to wooden floors or laminate floors. Instead, you should use a product intended for the specific surface. Before you start washing, you can advantageously wipe the floor with a microfibre cloth to remove all dirt and dust before washing. When washing, you should not use too much water to reduce the risk of damaging your floors. Use a mop or cloth to wipe the floor and change the water often if it becomes cloudy.

Maintaining beautiful, clean floors is important both visually and in terms of health. By sweeping, vacuuming and washing your floors regularly, you can reduce the risk of bacteria and allergens and extend the life of your floors. If you take the time to prepare your floors before cleaning, choose the right cleaning agent and be careful with the amount of water used, you will always get the best result. If necessary, read more in the product instructions and seek good advice if you are in doubt. In this way, you can ensure that your floors stay beautiful and healthy for many years to come.
