Routine Care - Sweep or vacuum the floor to remove loose dirt before it can scratch or be ground into the floor's surface. Periodically clean floor with recommended floor cleaner from Classic Wood Flooring's showroom. Most problems can be prevented by wiping up any spills as soon as they occur. Here are some first aid suggestions for common household accidents. When removing a spot, always begin at the outer edge and work toward the middle to prevent spot from spreading.

Chewing Gum, Candle Wax - Apply a plastic bag filled with ice on top of the deposit until it becomes brittle enough to crumble off.

Refurbishing Scratched Areas - Most scratches can be repaired with the manufacturer's touchup kit purchased from Classic Wood Flooring. For heavy damage, the individual planks on prefinished floors can be replaced. Hardwood floor finishes are warrantied by the manufacturer from 3 to 25 years.
