Vinyl flooring is a popular choice for its durability, affordability, and wide range of styles. Although it's low-maintenance, a few care steps will keep your vinyl flooring looking new for years. Follow these care tips from Flooring Orland Park to extend the life of your vinyl floors.

1. Regular Cleaning for a Fresh Look



Routine cleaning goes a long way in keeping vinyl floors fresh. Use a broom or vacuum to keep dirt from scratching the surface. By keeping the surface clear, you’ll prevent wear and extend the floor’s life.

2. Use a Gentle Mop with Mild Cleaner

When mopping vinyl, always use a soft mop and a gentle cleaner designed for vinyl surfaces. Harsh cleaners can strip the protective layer and affect the color. Look for a cleaner labeled safe for vinyl to maintain its integrity.



3. Protect Vinyl from Heavy Furniture and Sharp Objects
