What maintenance includes and how it protects floors

Maintenance begins with cleaning your Clinton floors using products designed for finished hardwood that lift dirt and grit without leaving residue or damaging the protective coating. High-traffic areas such as hallways and entryways are buffed to smooth minor scuffs and restore the even shine that fades with daily use. Edges, corners, and areas under furniture are inspected for signs of wear or moisture damage that could require repair if ignored.

After maintenance, you will notice floors that feel smoother and look brighter without the hazy film that builds up from improper cleaning. The finish remains intact and protective, which keeps moisture from soaking into the wood and prevents scratches from penetrating below the surface layer. Regular maintenance reduces the frequency of full refinishing, which saves money and avoids the disruption of sanding and recoating every few years.

The service does not include sanding, refinishing, or repairing structural damage such as broken boards, but it does address surface care that prevents minor issues from becoming major problems. Maintenance schedules can be adjusted based on how much traffic your floors receive and how quickly wear becomes visible.

Questions about keeping floors in good shape

Homeowners in Clinton often ask how often maintenance is needed, what cleaning products to use at home, and how maintenance differs from refinishing.

How often should I schedule hardwood floor maintenance?
Most floors benefit from maintenance every six to twelve months depending on traffic levels and how quickly the finish shows wear. High-traffic areas may need more frequent buffing to maintain an even appearance.
What cleaning products should I use between maintenance visits?
You should use cleaners designed for finished hardwood that do not contain harsh chemicals, wax, or oil-based ingredients. Proclean provides recommendations based on the type of finish applied to your Clinton floors.
What is the difference between maintenance and refinishing?
Maintenance includes cleaning, buffing, and surface care to protect the existing finish, while refinishing involves sanding the floor down to bare wood and applying a new protective coating. Maintenance extends the time between refinishing projects.
Will maintenance remove scratches and dull spots?
Buffing can smooth minor scuffs and restore shine to areas that look dull from wear, but deep scratches that penetrate the finish require refinishing to remove. Maintenance prevents minor damage from worsening over time.
Are senior discounts available for maintenance services?
Yes, senior discounts are available for qualifying clients in Clinton who schedule ongoing hardwood floor maintenance. This helps long-term homeowners keep their floors in good condition without added expense.
