Tips for Protecting Engineered Hardwood Flooring From Heavy Furniture

Tips for Protecting Engineered Hardwood Flooring From Heavy Furniture

Engineered hardwood flooring adds elegance and sophistication to any space, but ensuring its longevity requires proper care and maintenance, especially when it comes to heavy furniture. At Simply Floors Inc., located in Wheat Ridge, CO, we understand the importance of safeguarding your investment. Let's explore some effective strategies for protecting engineered hardwood flooring from heavy furniture.
 

Use Furniture Pads

Placing furniture pads under the legs of your heavy furniture can help distribute the weight more evenly and prevent scratches or indentations on your hardwood floors. Felt pads are an excellent choice as they provide a cushioned barrier between the furniture and the floor.
 

Lift, Don't Drag

 

When moving heavy furniture across your hardwood floors, avoid dragging it, as this can cause scratches and gouges. Instead, lift the furniture slightly off the ground and use furniture sliders or mats to glide it smoothly to its new location.
 

Invest in Area Rugs

 

Area rugs not only add style and warmth to your space but also serve as a protective barrier for your hardwood flooring. Placing area rugs under heavy furniture can help minimize the impact of weight and reduce the risk of damage.
 

Use Protective Covers

 

For furniture with sharp edges or metal feet, consider using protective covers or caps to prevent them from coming into direct contact with the hardwood flooring. This simple measure can help prevent scratches and dents over time.
