How to Maintain Your Floors During Wilmington’s Winter Season

Maintaining your floors during Wilmington’s winter season is crucial to preserving their appearance and functionality. Snow, salt, and moisture can quickly take a toll on your flooring if left unchecked. To combat this, homeowners should implement a few key practices. First, use quality doormats at entry points to minimize dirt and moisture tracked inside. For hardwood or engineered wood floors, regular sweeping and immediate cleanup of water or salt spills are vital. Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and tile are more moisture-resistant, but it’s still essential to wipe up any liquid promptly. Consider placing rugs in high-traffic areas for added protection. Using gentle cleaning products that match your flooring type helps maintain its finish and extend its life. By taking proactive steps, Wilmington residents can keep their floors looking great and performing well throughout the harsh winter months.
