Tips and Tricks by Century Custom Hardwood Floor - We ask the Floor Master Expert, Meshel
Here's what the Floor Master Expert, Mishel says:
So the Halloween party you’ve been waiting for since Easter is here, and you’ve started preparations for it. Only thing is, your hardwood floor can’t stand another major party, with all of the mess it comes with. What do you do? Call Century Custom Hardwood Floor, of course! We’ve put together a list of tips and tricks (and treats!) to help your minimize the wood floor damage your Monster Bash can do to your hardwood. Planning on having lots of Ghoulish Guests with Not-So-Happy Feet?
If
you have lots of invited people over for your Halloween dance party
tonight, there are several ways to protect your floor from all the foot
traffic and werewolf claws.
First, make sure you place area rugs and mats
on the major entryways, doorways, and hallways. That way when your guests make
their way through your house, your floor won’t be scratched as much. For even
more fun, try to use mats and rugs that are Halloween-themed!
If you’re just expecting to have a small get-together, then consider blocking off certain areas of the house and restricting the part to just one or two rooms. A fun, Halloween-themed way to do this is to put cobwebs or yellow “CAUTION!” over the door and pretend there’s an evil spirit inside. This way your guests will willingly go along with it and you can reduce the foot traffic.
Planning to bob for apples and dance with
vamps?
Make sure to have movement-intensive party
activities, like dancing and games, outside. The less jumping and moving on
your hardwood floor, the less wear and tear it will have. Certain games, like
bobbing for apples, should always be done outside. This game in particular is
one that spills lots of water on your floor, and you wouldn’t want that.
Even minor liquid spills can cause major water damage problems if
proper action isn’t taken immediately. Dances, if they have to be done inside,
should be restricted to one room, the room with carper or the most rugs and
mats. Don’t let mold and harmful germs grow
underneath your wood floors – Take preventive care now!
Going to watch Fright Films?
When you watch your scary movies, and
everyone is munching on some candied apples or popcorn, keep these suggestions
in mind. First, always make sure everyone is eating off a plate, and not just
their hands. Make sure they have napkins as well, and try to give them
beverages that come out of a seal-able container, like a bottle. This way they
reduce the spilling that could stain your floor, and you’ll have less mess and
dishes to worry about. Place a table near everyone who is watching the movie
and eating, so that they can put their food and waste on it, instead of the
floor, where it will be more likely to fall. For best results, watch the movie
with all the lights turned off!
Sticky substances like Halloween candy can
become a headache when you try to clean it off your beautiful hardwood
floors. Never use any kind of cleaning solution or chemical on your
wood floor other than what’s recommended by the manufacturer.
Otherwise, you can let the professional wood floor cleaning & buffing
experts at Century handle it!
