Is it possible for a floor to sweep you off your feet? A Reward Hardwood Floor will
make you fall in love with your home all over again.
When you select natural wood products, please bear in mind some basic facts that
are important to your future satisfaction of your flooring investment.
Structure
Wood products are natural and are subject to inherent variations of color and shade
and may have flaws, irregular markings, voids, fissures, and lines of minor separations
from 1/16”-1/32”. These variations will not impair the function or wearing qualities
of the wood. In time, as a result of normal wear, splits and voids may appear. Your
wood flooring professional may be able to repair these if and when they occur. In
most instances you would be responsible for these costs.
Appearance
The wood you select may not exactly match the sample you may have been shown and
can vary from piece to piece. The beauty of natural wood, exposure to sunlight,
natural lightening or darkening of wood over time, the staining process, and hand-applied
character (if any), give wood flooring its unique character.
Maintenance
Your wood floor has been treated with a finish engineered to provide years of protection.
Please follow these guidelines to ensure that your floor remains beautiful for years
to come:
- Sweep regularly with a soft bristle broom or vacuum
with a soft floor attachment. Surface dirt can scratch or dull your floor’s finish.
- Use throw rugs on both sides of entrances and on areas
subject to high traffic or moisture.
- Never wet or damp mop your floor or use products designed
for tile, vinyl, or other surfaces. Instead, use a wood floor-cleaning product available
from your flooring professional. Wipe up spills immediately. Moisture can cause
discoloration, cupping, and damage to the finish.
- High-heel shoes, cleats, pet toenails, anf furniture
legs can damage your floor. Protect it by removing shoes, trimming toenails, using
furniture pads, and not dragging sharp of heavy objects across your floor.
- Maintain the temperature inside your home at "live-in"
conditions whether occupied or vacant. Use a humidifier if necessary.
