Protecting Your Floors This Fall
Fall is here, bringing cooler temperatures, rain, and increased foot traffic into your home. Your floors endure a lot during these months, from muddy shoes to dry indoor air. Follow these expert tips to protect your flooring investment and keep your home looking its best.
Hardwood Floors: Prevent Shrinking and Drying
As temperatures drop, hardwood floors naturally shrink, causing gaps between boards. This seasonal change is normal, but maintaining a consistent indoor temperature (between 60-70°F) can help minimize expansion and contraction.
To keep your hardwood floors looking their best, protect them with Quick Shine Hardwood Floor Luster. This formula, fortified with pure plant-derived carnauba, nourishes wood, enhances shine, and shields against fading and drying from direct sunlight.
Luxury Vinyl Plank & Tile: Tackle Mud and Moisture
Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) and Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) are designed to withstand high traffic, moisture, and messes—making them ideal for fall and winter. However, dirt and debris accumulate faster this time of year, so regular sweeping and vacuuming are essential.
For effortless cleaning, we recommend using a high-quality mop to quickly lift dirt and grime, keeping your floors looking fresh with minimal effort.
Stone & Tile Floors: Deep Clean and Protect
Stone and tile floors are highly durable, but their textured surfaces and grout lines can trap dirt and grime. Before winter sets in, give them extra protection with a deep clean.
- Start with Quick Shine Deep Cleaner to break down and lift embedded dirt instantly.
- Once clean and dry, apply Quick Shine Multi-Surface Floor Finish to restore color, enhance shine, and add a protective layer against future messes.
Safer Choice for a Healthier Home
All Quick Shine floor care solutions meet EPA Safer Choice standards, ensuring they are safer for your family, pets, and home—without sacrificing performance.
By taking a few simple steps this season, you can protect your floors, maintain their beauty, and enjoy a cleaner, healthier home all fall and winter long.
