Tru-Clean Surface Care | SW Florida’s Best Choice For LVT, Wood and Laminate Cleaning
More than regular cleaning is needed to maintain the beauty and longevity of your Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT), wood, and laminate flooring. Homeowners in SW Florida are increasingly turning to professional services like Tru-Clean Surface Care for deep cleaning, restoration, and sealing that ensure their floors remain stunning and resilient for years.
In this blog post, we’ll dive deep into what LVT, LVP, wood, laminate, engineered flooring are, why periodic deep cleaning is essential, and how Tru-Clean Surface Care’s specialized services can help you protect and enhance your floors.
What is Luxury Vinyl Tile or Plank (LVT and LVP)?
Luxury Vinyl Tile (LVT) and Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) are high-quality, durable flooring options that mimic the look of natural wood, stone, or ceramic. Unlike traditional vinyl, LVT and LVP are thicker, offering better resilience and a more realistic appearance. These floors are ideal for busy households due to their water-resistant and scratch-resistant properties, making them a popular choice among SW Florida homeowners.
What is Engineered and Laminate Flooring?
Engineered wood flooring consists of multiple layers of wood, with a top layer of hardwood veneer. This construction makes engineered wood more stable and less prone to warping than solid wood, making it an excellent option for areas with fluctuating humidity, like SW Florida.
On the other hand, laminate flooring is made from a composite material that simulates the appearance of wood or stone. It’s a budget-friendly alternative to hardwood and is highly resistant to scratches, dents, and moisture.
The Importance of Periodic DEEP Cleaning
While LVT, wood, and laminate floors are designed to be durable, they still require periodic deep cleaning to maintain their appearance and extend their lifespan. Surface-level cleaning can only do so much. Over time, dirt, grime, and allergens build up, dulling the finish and potentially causing damage.
Deep cleaning by Tru-Clean Surface Care removes this buildup, rejuvenating the floor’s appearance and preventing the wear and tear that can lead to costly repairs or replacements.
The Benefits of Protective Coatings on Luxury Vinyl Tile and Wood Flooring
After deep cleaning, applying a protective coating is crucial. These coatings seal the floor, making it resistant to stains, scratches, and moisture. They also fill in the tiny gaps between tiles or planks, preventing bacteria, mold, and other microbes from taking refuge.
Tru-Clean Surface Care offers a range of protective finishes tailored to your specific flooring type. These ensure that your floors look beautiful and are protected against future damage.
