To maintain its sheen and luster, a parquet floor requires care just like any other flooring types.

Here are a few ways to keep the beauty of your parquetry floors for years:

1. Prevent scratches

It’s ugly to see scratches on your parquet floors which can require a costly repair. To prevent scratches, avoid wearing high-heeled footwear when walking on it. Don’t wear your outside shoes on your parquet flooring because it might carry gravel, dirt, sand and other outside particles that may scratch your lovely flooring.

2. Clean regularly

Clean your parquet flooring daily to prevent dust accumulation. To do it, just use a soft broom or a vacuum cleaner. Mopping it should be avoided because accumulated moisture can damage your parquetry flooring. Parquetry floors are best used as a feature and not in wet areas like kitchens and laundries and defiantly not suitable for bathrooms.

Don’t move heavy objects across your parquetry flooring

If you can prevent moving heavy items on your parquetry floor, or if you really need to, take extra precautions. When moving certain heavy objects, use a soft cloth or pads under the item to prevent scuffing and scratching on your floor.
