1. Regularly sweep or vacuum the floor to prevent sand or abrasive dust from accumulating and scratching finish.

2. Sand and water are wood’s worst enemies. Place rugs inside every outside entrance of house, in front of kitchen sink, working stations and dishwasher to protect the floor from water or oily detergent.

3. Use adequate floor protection (felt pads) under all furniture and chair legs, in order to ease their movements and to prevent scratches and dents.

4. High heels, second only to water, are one of hardwood floors worst enemies. Keep “high heel” shoes in good condition. Damaged or worn out high heels may expose a metal tip, which will certainly damage the surface finish.

5. Never use wax, oil based detergent or any other household cleaners on your Hand Scraped Solid Sawn Engineered Flooring. These may dull or damage finish, leaving a greasy film, and may make the floor slippery and more difficult to clean. These products will also void your warranty.

6. Light scratches or dents may be easily repaired by using some wood filler and thin coats of polyurethane.

7. Protect your floor against direct sunlight or any intense source of artificial lighting. Over time intense light will discolor exposed surfaces. Fading due to UV lighting is not covered under your warranty.
