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. |
