While vinyl requires minimal effort to upkeep, it’s good to know the quickest cleaning methods that won’t take ages.
Use a soft-bristled sweeping brush to get up any bits of dust and dirt that may have come from outside. It’s best to place a mat in front of your doorway to avoid any unwanted nasties entering your home.
If you accidentally spill red wine on your light vinyl floor, don’t panic. The best way to clean it up is to use a damp cloth and soapy water. Some flooring cleaning products contain harsh chemicals that might damage your floor. If you use shop-bought cleaning products, always check with your flooring supplier or buy their cleaning kit. To ensure your floor is dirt and dust-free, give it a quick vacuum.
One question flooring suppliers get asked is, ‘What cleaners are safe for vinyl floors?
Most of us can’t afford to buy specialist cleaning products so, we often go to the supermarket and buy the best one there. You should familiarise yourself with your floor and how susceptible it is to damage. So, always check the label to see if any harsh chemicals might cause damage to your floor. Only use microfibre cloths as mops can sometimes carry sharp materials like stones that may scratch your floor.
Stains are a pain to get out, especially if it’s on your floor. You might think that using strong chemicals will get the floor out but that’s not necessarily always the case. For the best results, buy a specialist floor cleaner to remove any nasty stains like red wine. If it is above your budget, consider rubbing alcohol and vinegar to help lift the stain out. Be careful rubbing too hard as it may lift the colour out.
