Tips To Maintain a Vinyl Floor

Restrain Dirt with a Doormat
A doormat absorbs the dirt and keeps your floor clean: Tracked-in dirt means extra broom time. It can reduce the shiny finish of the floor.

Sweeping Is the Key
The key to keep any floor in good shape is to keep it clean, and sheet vinyl is no exception. Get the dirt off before it gets ground in, and your vinyl will last longer. Sweep frequently, it’ll increase the lifespan of your flooring.

Shampoo Away Hair Spray
If you have hairspray buildup on your vinyl floor, just shampoo it away. Mix a squirt of shampoo with a gallon of warm water. Mop, and then rinse with a damp mop.

Be Nice To Your Floor
Clean your vinyl floor using the mildest possible method. Resist the temptation to blast away dirt with heavy-duty cleaners. Sweep or vacuum it every evening, and wipe up spills right away. To clean dirt that the broom or vacuum can’t get, use a mop dampened with warm—not hot—water.

Avoid Harsh Cleanser
A general rule is to use the mildest cleanser possible to do the job since harsher cleanser is tougher on the flooring. It’ll take the shine off the vinyl since most cleansers contain chemicals that are too abrasive.

Don’t Drench Your Vinyl
Water from an overly wet mop will work its way into the cracks, seams, and edges. Once there, it can destroy the glue bond that holds down the vinyl, causing it to come loose or corners to curl.

Rinse Well To Remove All Soap
Soap may get your floor clean, but soap scum leaves a film that actually collects dirt. Until your floor needs a serious cleaning, stick to damp mopping with just water. When you do need to wash the floor, use two mops—one for washing and a second one just for rinsing.

Forgo Rolling Casters
Consider fitting chairs with felt tips, which won’t harm your vinyl.

Scrub with a Soft Nylon Brush
If there's a tricky stain that won't come up with a soft cloth, you can scrub with a soft nylon brush. Make sure you don't use a stiff-bristled brush since it could leave scratches on your floor.
