Cleaning and Care

Recommended Cleaning Products

Harvey Maria floors are made from resilient materials which require relatively low maintenance. As with all floors, sensible precautions and regular cleaning will help ensure the high performance of the floor throughout its life.

All Harvey Maria floors have a Lifetime* residential product warranty (subject to conditions). A condition of the warranty is that you follow the recommended maintenance routine outlined below.

1

A good doormat (non rubber-backed) will help to capture grit and dirt and prevent it from being carried onto the floor. Doormats are advisable for all entry points to the outdoors.

2

Floors should be regularly swept with a soft brush and sponge-mopped with a pH neutral cleaner such as Cleanse solution in the FloorSpa Kit. Spillages should be wiped away as they occur to avoid staining.

3

Use the stronger Scrub solution in the kit to deep clean the floor after a period of wear (and after install to remove any dried-on glue residue).

4

Periodic application of the Protect emulsion polish from the FloorSpa kit helps create a protective barrier making the floor easier to clean.

5

In high footfall areas application of an LVT sealant can add extra protection from scuffing/ scratching while reducing the need for day to day cleaning - particularly recommended for commercial spaces.

6

Avoid dragging furniture or sharp items across the floor. The furniture pads in the Kit can help to protect the floor from scratching from table legs etc. Protect the floor from larger items of furniture with load bearing castors.

7

Protect floors using window blinds to avoid discolouration and damage from strong sunlight and excessive heat - surface temperature must be kept between 59°F and 80°C at all times.

8

Prevent rubber products which contain antioxidants from coming in to prolonged contact with the floor, otherwise discoloration may occur.

 
9

Check the suitably of vacuum cleaners to prevent scratching from sharp edges and use shading to reduce the risk of fading from prolonged and intense sunlight.

10

Always follow the cleaning and care advice for your floor. Unsuitable cleaning products can cause damage and create a slip-hazard!
