To keep your lacquered floor looking its best, regular cleaning and maintenance are highly advisable. Lacquered floors have specific needs, so using the correct products is essential. For optimal care, follow these steps: 1. **Dry Cleaning:** Use a soft broom or a microfiber dust mop to routinely remove dirt and dust particles. This will prevent abrasive particles from scratching the lacquered surface. 2. **Damp Cleaning:** Occasionally use a damp mop with a specifically designed cleaner for lacquered floors. Avoid soaking the floor; instead, a lightly dampened mop will suffice. This not only keeps the floor looking brand new but also protects it against scratches. 3. **Less Frequent Deep Cleaning:** While daily or weekly dry and damp cleaning routines keep the floor in good condition, less frequent deep cleaning is recommended for comprehensive maintenance. Follow these simple yet effective maintenance steps to ensure your lacquered floor remains stunning and durable for years to come.

Maintaining an oiled floor is essential to preserve its beauty and longevity. Follow these steps for optimal care: 1. **Regular Cleaning:** Use a vacuum or a dry mop to remove dust and dirt. You can also use a damp, but not wet, mop alongside a pH-neutral cleaner specifically designed for oiled wood floors. 2. **Spot Cleaning:** For spills or stains, immediately blot the area with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive tools as they can damage the finish. 3. **Re-Oiling:** Periodically, your oiled floor will need re-oiling to maintain its protective layer. The frequency depends on foot traffic and usage, typically every 12 to 18 months. Apply the oil evenly following the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring the floor is clean and dry beforehand. 4. **Avoid Moisture:** Oiled floors are sensitive to excessive moisture. Use rugs or mats in high-moisture areas like kitchens and entranceways to protect the floor from water damage. 5. **Protective Measures:** Use felt pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches, and avoid dragging heavy items across the floor. By following these maintenance steps, you can keep your oiled floor from Tflooring&Co LTD in excellent condition, ensuring it continues to enhance the beauty of your space for years to come.

Underlay is the term for a thin material laid between the subfloor and the floor. Underlays are useful for stability, insulation, sound reduction, and moisture protection. They are commonly used for floating wood floors. Fixed floors are fixed directly to the subfloor, so do not usually incorporate an underlay.

A floating floor is a floor of engineered boards (excluding parquet woodblocks) that is put on top of an underlay and not physically fixed to an existing substrate. Reasons for fitting a floating floor Usually, a floor will be floated because of the following reasons: • To accommodate underfloor heating • To incorporate sound reduction material • To add a damp course or moisture resistant barrier • To add a minor insulation material

What causes gaps or cracks in wooden floors? Wood is a natural product, so is sensitive to the environment it is kept. Because of this, almost every wood floor will endure some expansion and contraction as seasons and humidity levels change. When homes are heated, humidity levels plummet, causing boards to shrink and spaces to appear between the boards. In very dry months, cracks can easily develop to the thickness of a thumbnail, for example. With lighter coloured woods, the gaps and cracks may appear larger because of the contrast between the gap and the colour of the wood. Square edge boards will also show cracks more. These spaces are to be expected and will usually close up as the season changes and moisture returns to the air. To reduce the degree of change, home owners can add moisture to the air during the dry months, ideally by installing humidifier or by buying some potted plants! What if I want a floor that looks more worn and weathered? Some flooring products come with a worn appearance. While gaps and cracks are undesirable, these floors are as structurally sound as all other flooring products but have a more lived-in, authentic appearance.

Why does wood change colour over time? Wood is a natural product, and as such is sensitive to environmental changes. Direct sunlight will cause the floor’s colour to fade over time. The extent to which a floor changes colour depends on the species, the type of finish, and the amount of contact with direct sunlight. Most floors will fade in colour, so obvious differences in colour at an early stage of the floor’s life become less obvious as the colour becomes more uniform. Also you should consider that flooring will not look the same as when you buy it forever! How to prevent your floor fading in colour The most important thing to do to protect your investment is to regularly maintain your floor, as this is the best way of keeping your floor looking its best.
