Get Rid of Dirt, Crumbs and Debris with a Hoover 

One of the first things to tackle when it comes to cleaning laminate flooring is getting rid of any dirt, crumbs, muck and debris. An active house gets dirty quickly, especially if there are kids and pets constantly running around, meaning that you need to keep on top of looking after your laminate flooring. The best way to do this is by giving your flooring a quick hoover and removing anything that has settled on it. Be sure to remove any harsh or strong attachments from your hoover before beginning, as these can scratch or damage your home’s laminate flooring.

Carefully Mop Laminate Flooring 

We then recommend carefully mopping your laminate flooring, which will give it a deep and thorough clean. How often you mop your laminate flooring is really up to you, some people opt for mopping it once a week, once a fortnight, or even once a month. It really depends on how dirty your laminate flooring gets, and how much foot traffic it faces on a day-to-day basis. 

Choose a laminate-safe floor cleaner, or make your own using water and vinegar, or water and baking soda for a natural, eco-friendly cleaning solution. Ideally, you want to use a mop that has a washable, reusable microfibre head which will ensure that your laminate flooring doesn’t get scratched or damaged during the cleaning process.

Don’t Overdo it with Cleaning Products or Water 

Too much liquid can actually do more harm than good when it comes to cleaning and maintaining your laminate flooring. You want to use a small amount of laminate floor cleaner, even though it might be tempting to use lots as you think you’ll get a cleaner floor. 

Using too much cleaner can actually leave a residue that can make the laminate look dull and muted. You also want to make sure that water doesn’t pool on your laminate, as this can seep into your flooring and damage and destroy the laminate. So be sparing with your use of cleaning products and water.
