Maintenance
Maintenance is a crucial and often neglected part of Any Investment !
Ultimately, it is up to the customer to maintain their Hardwood Floor by vacuuming on a frequent basis. Supplement this with an occasional damp mop where necessary and you will find Hardwood Floors to be relatively easy and low maintenance.
When damp-mopping, we recommend that you use just a couple of ounces of Windex in a gallon of water. This will insure that no harmful residue will be left behind. We further recommend that you Never use Wax, Murphy’s wood oil soap, Orange Glo or any other product that “coats” your floor.
The reason for this is simple: Polyurethane will not adhere to those types of products.
This is where We enter into the Hardwood Floor Maintenance picture.
SMITH’s Hardwood Floors has as its goal to make your floors last as long as possible, without costing you a fortune; and to save you money in the long run.
To accomplish this, once your floors are finished, we offer a one-day maintenance process, which only needs to be performed ONCE every
2 - 7 years (depending on wear & tear). I do my own floors on the average of every 3 - 5 years.
We also send occasional Reminders because, frankly, we know that you have other things on your mind.
This helps our customers to keep an eye on the condition of their floors, preventing the premature need for a Full Refinish.

Maintenance Coats are also a viable option for sprucing up your house in the event that you are planning to put it on the Market.
