How can we keep parquet in good condition?
Parquet floors are very common today in homes and workplaces. By following these small maintenance and cleaning tips, you can keep your parquet floor in good condition for many years.
Suitable products and methods
- Avoid excessive humidity. This is why if a liquid accidentally falls on the parquet, it must be dried immediately with a dry cloth and an absorbent powder before the liquid seeps into the wood.
Excessive dryness, on the other hand, is not advisable either. We recommend keeping the humidity level of the parquet space between 35% and 65% with the help of humidifiers. This way, you can avoid the contraction and expansion of the wood that can cause it to warp. - You have to be careful and avoid walking on the parquet with high heels that can damage it. It is advisable to protect the places that have most foot-traffic with carpets.
- Likewise, we must cover the bottoms of furniture such as tables or chairs so as not to scratch the parquet when moving them. At Rovira Home Supplies we have special products to fill surface scratches on parquet.
- Direct sunlight on parquet is harmful as it can discolour it and end up damaging it.
- Cleaning is essential to preserve the parquet. We should use vacuum cleaners to clean dust and, once a week, mop the parquet with warm water and ROVIRA soapy wood cleaner, which cleans, nourishes and rejuvenates the parquet so that it stays looking as good as new. We recommend never using products with silicone, which are harmful to parquet.
- In order to nourish the parquet, apply ROVIRA carnauba wax once a month or natural oils specially designed for parquet.
