Fabulous Flooring Tips
Great flooring deserves the right care to stay looking its best. Discover practical advice on cleaning, maintenance, and long-term protection to extend the life of your floors. Simple tips and expert guidance all in one place.
Choosing Your Flooring:
-
Match durability to traffic: high-traffic areas need tough, hard-wearing options.
-
Consider your lifestyle: kids, pets, and workspaces all have different needs.
-
Think long-term: colour, pattern, and texture affect both style and maintenance.
-
Visit our showroom as many times as you like! Play with colours, textures, and patterns until you fall in love—no limits, no pressure.
Cleaning & Everyday Care:
-
Vacuum thoroughly and frequently, especially in high-traffic areas. Some carpets may ‘shed’ initially but settle over time. We recommend using a Sebō vacuum for best results: www.sebo.com.au
-
Tackle spills immediately—red wine and coffee don’t wait!
Professional Care:
-
Have your carpet professionally steam cleaned every 12–18 months, depending on use.
-
Only use a professional cleaner who is a member of a recognised association and follows Australian/New Zealand Standard AS/NZ 3733:1995.
-
Avoid DIY shampooing, dry cleaning, or home steam cleaning.
Protect Your Flooring:
-
Place mats at exterior doors and use rugs in high-traffic areas.
-
Use furniture coasters or chair pads under castor chairs; rearrange furniture occasionally to prevent pressure marks.
-
Protect carpets from prolonged direct sunlight with curtains or blinds.
Long-Term Love:
-
Rotate rugs and furniture for even wear.
-
Keep humidity stable to protect your flooring.
-
Follow manufacturer guidelines to ensure your carpet lasts for years.
