Protection of wooden floors from scratching and indentation is easy with a little thought and pre-planning idealy before you have your new wooden floor installed.
Ensure that harmful dirt and grit is kept off the wood floor surface by using an efficient matting at all the entrances to the home. Felt pads should be fixed to all furniture legs that will come into contact with the wood floor. These will ensure that
your furniture can be moved easily and quietly wihout indents and scratching the floor. Castor cups with a soft felt back should be used beneath heavy furniture wherever possible.
PVC appliance trays should always be used if having a new wood floor or laminate floor installed in a kitchen as these will protect the wood floor surface from condensation, and small leaks.
