How to Maintain Vinyl Floors Like a Pro

Expert-approved vinyl floor maintenance tips that make cleaning easier and extend your floor’s life. Learn how Biyork’s TrueShield™ technology changes the game.

Let’s face it—vinyl flooring is the MVP of modern interiors. It’s stylish, resilient, and plays well with pets, kids, and dinner party mishaps. But even the best players need a little coaching, and when it comes to keeping your vinyl floors in top form, a smart maintenance routine is key.

Now here’s the kicker: Biyork isn’t just playing the flooring game—we’re changing it. Enter TrueShield™, our not-so-secret weapon that’s turning vinyl care from a chore into a breeze.

Maintenance Basics from the Pros

 

Do’s

Don’ts

Preventative Maintenance

Protect your floor before problems start.

 

Use door mats and felt pads. Mats help trap dirt before it spreads, and felt pads under furniture legs prevent scratches and dents.

Skip rubber-backed mats and don’t drag furniture. Rubber can stain vinyl over time, and dragging heavy furniture can leave permanent marks or gouges.

Daily Maintenance

A quick clean goes a long way.

Sweep, vacuum, or use a microfiber mop. This keeps the surface free of grit that can scratch.

Don’t let dust and dirt build up. It might seem harmless, but over time it can dull or wear down the finish.

Routine Cleaning

When it needs a deeper clean, keep it gentle.

 

Use a damp mop with a vinyl-safe, pH-neutral cleaner. It’s safe, effective, and won’t damage the surface.

Avoid steam mops, wax, polish, or harsh cleaners. These can damage the wear layer and leave the floor looking cloudy or worn.

Spills & Stains

Vinyl floors are waterproof—but that doesn’t mean they’re invincible.

 

Wipe up spills right away with a soft cloth, and rinse with clean water if needed.

 

Don’t let water sit. Standing liquid can seep into seams or edges and potentially cause lifting over time.

Good advice—but let’s upgrade to the post-TrueShield™ era, shall we?
