Wood Floor Cleaning
Wood flooring is a luxurious alternative to wall to wall carpeting that many homeowners, especially allergy suffers and home flippers, opt for either natural or engineered wood flooring. While a carpet acts as an excellent air filter, when a carpet is not cleaned regularly, it begins to trap and recirculate air pathogens. Wood floor has no trapping capabilities so, in terms of cleaning, it is easier to identify the dust and soil that must be cleaned up. On the other hand, since wood floor has no trapping capabilities, dust and soil easily fly into the air and surreptitiously make their way into the nooks and crannies of your wood floor.
