How to Cleaning Hard Floors

Hard floors that are dusty look dirtier than unvacuumed carpets.  Sweep, vacuum, or mop them regularly – particularly hallway, kitchen, and bathroom floors.  Wooden floors need polishing; marble,  vinyl, and tile floors require heavy-duty cleaning from time to time.

Sweeping Floors – Removing dust

Sweep or vacuum hard floors every few days, paying special attention to corners, where dirt collects and builds up.

Mopping Floors – Effective mopping

Damp mop all sealed floors weekly, using two bucket method.  Do not use soap when when mapping slate or stone floors.

Scrubbing Floors – Heavy-duty washing

Scrub stone, concrete, and title floors with floor cleaner and scrub brush occasionally to get rid of accumulated dirt.
