Do you have small children?
Do you struggle to clean up after them, especially cleaning up your flooring?
Don’t spend hours cleaning or spend too much money to get a professional to clean your floors! Save time and money with our tips on how to take better care of your flooring and cleaning up after kids.
It’s no secret that kids can be messy. Whether it’s spilling foods or drinks, art supplies, or dirty shoes on the carpet, there always seems to be a mess that needs to be cleaned.
Here are some tips on how to keep your flooring looking brand new all throughout your home!
1. Hardwood flooring: One preventive measure to take care of hardwood floors is to put a rug down, especially in a kid’s bedroom or playroom to prevent scratches and scuffs from shoes and toys. Damp mopping the floor is the best way to deep clean. Rinse with a clean mop, being careful to prevent standing water. Dusting on a regular basis can also lengthen the life of your floor.
2. Carpet: Vacuuming several times a week is the easiest way to keep carpets free of dirt and allergens. Keeping heavily traveled areas of carpet covered with throw rugs can also protect those areas from having to be deep cleaned. Cleaning up spills right away before they soak into the carpet is important! Remember: blot the spill with a cloth or paper towel; don’t rub it in!
Another way to protect your floors from arts and crafts messes is to buy washable products, such as washable paints and markers. These messes still need to be cleaned right away, but they’ll come out easier than non-washable materials.
