Tips for cleaning vinyl plank flooring


When you choose vinyl plank flooring, you'll find outstanding benefits. There's an advantage for every room of your home, from bedrooms to bathrooms and more.

Many homeowners ask about the cleaning process for these materials. And the more you know about it, the better results you'll have when you clean yours.

The basics of cleaning luxury vinyl flooring

Luxury vinyl flooring is 100% waterproof, so wet cleaning is an option. First, sweep up dirt and debris, then follow with a damp mop.

There are unique solutions that cater to these cleaning needs. We can suggest excellent options for any LVP flooring product you choose.

You can also use area rugs and runners to simplify cleaning. They protect your surfaces from dirt and debris, trapping and holding them.

There are some things to avoid

Avoid all abrasive cleaners and tools, no matter how durable your flooring is. These can work to build up scratches that wear away the protective topcoat fast.

You'll also want to stay away from steam cleaners due to their use of extreme heat. This can cause the seams to separate, pushing moisture into and beneath the flooring.

Avoiding these when you clean your vinyl plank flooring helps to maintain your warranty and keep your floors looking great. If you have questions about what to use instead, we can help.
