SPC, LVT and vinyl
- Sweep or vacuum (hard-floor head), then mop with a well-wrung mop and a pH-neutral cleaner.
- Wipe standing water; do not flood the floor.
- Felt pads under furniture; no rubber-backed mats; use blinds for strong afternoon sun.
Laminate
- Dry or barely damp mop only; wipe spills promptly.
- Keep expansion gaps and profiles free — do not fix heavy cabinets through the floor.
Engineered and solid wood
- Dry mop; damp-mop occasionally with a wood-floor cleaner.
- Keep indoor humidity steady (roughly 40–60%) — air-conditioning helps in the monsoon.
- Re-oil or re-lacquer as the finish wears; engineered floors with a 3 mm top layer can usually be re-sanded.
WPC decking
- Sweep and wash with water; mild soap for marks.
- Keep the drainage and expansion gaps clear.
