How to Care for Sudden Valley Hardwood Flooring

Are you interested in having hardwood flooring installed in your home in Sudden Valley? Some homeowners shy away from hardwood flooring installations because they worry that the upkeep is too complicated. This isn’t actually the case. A few small adjustments and you’ll be able to care for your new floors properly for years. Keep the following tips in mind as you decide whether or not hardwood flooring is right for you.

Use the Right Products

To keep your Sudden Valley hardwood flooring beautiful, you need to use the right cleaning products. This includes soft-bristled brooms, microfiber pads, and vacuum wand attachments. The best cleaners are pH-neutral, nontoxic, and biodegradable.

Invest in Curtains

The sun is not a friend to hardwood flooring. In fact, UV rays can do a lot of damage. Constant exposure often results in significant fading. To prevent this from occurring, invest in and use good curtains. Your hardwood flooring contractor may also recommend moving your furniture around occasionally to spread out exposure.

Keep Pet Nails Short

Your pets can also damage your hardwood flooring. Sharp claws may leave scratches. Additionally, long nails often collect dirt that can cause even more problems for your floors. Hardwood flooring care means taking time to trim your pets’ nails appropriately; this can save you significantly on hardwood floor refinishing and/or hardwood floor repair.

Ken and his team were very thoughtful, professional and did an amazing job. They were conscientious about the noise and the dust with our little kids. They were prompt and exceeded our expectations! You can really tell Ken cares about his clients just as much as he cares about his work. I'm so happy we chose Ken and his team for our floor remodel!

Ken and his employee, both, did an excellent job addressing our squeaky floors and also installing more of our existing laminate throughout our home. Our floors look wonderful! They were on time, masked, neat, and got done in a timely fashion. Both were friendly and Ken is great at explaining everything along the way. We found his pricing to be very fair as well. He presented us with a detailed bid to start, which we found to be very helpful. I whole heartedly recommend Ken for your flooring needs.

We had a large carpeted sitting room with connected dining room that we wanted to replace with nailed bamboo floor. Ken found us an excellent product which was also good match for the existing kitchen area with oak boards. Ken's very experienced assistant, Frank, worked for four days taking out the carpet and trim and then installing the bamboo with amazing precision and skill. We couldn't be happier with the result! It has added light to the living areas and a beautiful glow and finish of real wood. We highly recommend Ken and his team and won't hesitate to hire them for any future wood flooring.

Ken and Frank did a spectacular job on our flooring install. Clearly experts at what they do. They were fast, smart and easy to work with. I really appreciated how clean they were. I have already recommended them to friends and should I need flooring services in the future, I will go to Ken without a doubt. Thanks, Ken!

We used Ken's Custom Floors to source and install new engineered hardwood in our new home that we're remodeling. Ken had competitive pricing, was flexible with our schedule, completed the job on time, and most of all the flooring looks great! We will recommend Ken to friends/family. Thanks Ken.

Ken was easy to work with and explained the different types of wood flooring. We started out thinking oak but had hickory put in. Ken is very hard working and put in many hours and our floors are beautiful. I would have no reservations about recommending Ken’s Flooring.

Ken and his crew were very professional and worked hard to install our floors around us and our furniture. I especially appreciated the way they stayed on schedule and cleaned up so thoroughly when then were finished.

My husband and I trusted Ken right away. He’s a straight up, hard working and intelligent guy. Our instincts were bang on and Ken and his team did an exceptional job laying vinyl over the ugliest tile I hated so much. It’s like we have a brand new home!! We get a ton of compliments including the cut around our rock fireplace. Ken deserves 6 stars for such a fabulous job!!
