Learn how to clean vinyl floors and protect them from dents and scratches.Use a doormatThe first thing you need to know about how to clean vinyl floors is how to prevent them from getting dirty in the first place. A doormat helps keep out your vinyl floor’s two greatest enemies: dirt and chemicals. Tracked-in dirt means extra broom time. Grit acts like sandpaper, removing the finish from your floor. And even though you can’t see them, chemicals from asphalt can stick first to your shoes and then to the floor, causing it to yellow.Sweep frequentlyThe key to keeping any floor in good shape is to keep it clean, and sheet vinyl is no exception. Get the dirt off before it gets ground in, and your vinyl will last longer. It’s a good idea to get in the habit of quickly running a soft broom across the kitchen floor every evening after you put the dishes in the dishwasher.Shampoo away hair sprayIf you have hairspray build-up on your vinyl floor, just shampoo it away. It works on your hair, doesn’t it? Mix a squirt of shampoo with a gallon of warm water. Mop, then rinse with a damp mop.Learn low-impact cleaning techniquesResist the temptation to blast away dirt with heavy-duty cleaners. Instead, learn how to clean vinyl floors using the mildest possible method. Sweep or vacuum it every evening, and wipe up spills right away. To clean dirt that the broom or vacuum can’t get, use a mop dampened with warm—not hot—water. If all else fails, use soap, but make sure the soap is designed for your flooring.Use the right cleanserHere’s how to clean vinyl floors made with no-wax vinyl: Wash them with a cleaner made specifically for no-wax floors, following the directions on the container. If you have older vinyl that requires waxing, clean it with warm water and detergent. Dampen a mop or sponge with the mixture, and rub the floor just enough to loosen the dirt. Try not to rub off the wax because you’ll just have to reapply it. Rinse with clean, cool water—no matter what the soap label says about not needing rinsing—otherwise you’ll leave a residue on the floor. Look out for these other cleaning mistakes that only make your home dirtier.Don’t drench your vinylWater from an overly wet mop will work its way into the cracks, seams, and edges. Once there, it can destroy the glue bond that holds down the vinyl, causing it to come loose or corners to curl.Rinse well to remove all soapSoap may get your floor clean, but soap scum leaves a film that actually collects dirt. Until your floor needs a serious cleaning, stick to damp mopping with just water. When you do need to wash the floor, use two mops—one for washing and a second one just for rinsing.Preserve the sheen“No wax” really means “Don’t wax.” No-wax vinyl has a clear polyurethane coating that makes it shine. Wax won’t adhere well to the coating and will leave behind a mess that you’ll have to strip off. (Don’t use mop-and-wax products, either.) If your no-wax floor loses its shine, restore it with a polish or sealant made for no-wax flooring. Make sure the floor is thoroughly clean and apply one or two thin layers as directed. It should keep your floor shining for at least a year with only routine damp mopping. If you have an older floor that requires waxing, wax when it loses its sheen, but use only the amount called for on the container label.Outfit your furniture and large appliances with protective “feet”The weight of heavy items (such as tables and refrigerators) that occupy permanent places in your kitchen can dent vinyl flooring. Prevent these dents by fitting your furniture with floor protectors, which you can find at hardware stores and home improvement centres.Forgo rolling castersThese, too, can damage the surface of your tile. Instead, consider fitting chairs with felt tips, which won’t harm your vinyl.Before big moves, put appliances and other heavy items on a plywood pathMore often than not, when we replace or move appliances, we drag or push them across the floor rather than lift them—but dragging them will only scratch and scuff your vinyl flooring. To keep your vinyl in tiptop condition, lay a piece of plywood sheeting along the route that you are going to take out of the room, and push or “walk” the appliances out along the plywood path. Next, don’t miss these 8 must-know tricks for cleaning hardwood floors. |

Spotless Floors for SpringCleaning is no one’s favourite job, but it is essential to keeping your floors well-maintained and your home healthy. If you’re ready to jump into your spring cleaning, follow our guide for the basics of achieving a spotless floor.
CarpetWhen it comes to cleaning carpet, you can’t get by without a vacuum cleaner. To ensure you’re getting an effective clean for your hard work, make sure your vacuum bag doesn’t have a full or dirty filter or bag as this can seriously affect your vacuum’s suction power. For longer pile carpets, vacuum against the direction of the pile first to expose the dirt.For soiled or high traffic areas, do multiple passes over the area to extract as much dirt as possible. Use crevice tools or attachments to get into hard to reach places for the most thorough clean. After vacuuming, use water to remove stains, or use a recommended cleaning solution if water proves ineffective. VinylVinyl flooring is a breeze to clean. After sweeping up the dust with a soft broom, simply damp mop with the manufacturer’s recommended cleaning solution. However, DO NOT use caustic ammonia, solvent-based cleaners, or wax polishes on vinyl as they can make your floors slippery or even cause discolouration.TimberWhen vacuuming timber floors, make sure you use the floor brush attachment or setting on your vacuum head to prevent scratching your floors. As hardy as timber floors can be, they can be damaged by excess water. A microfiber mop is a superior choice when compared to a string mop as it will hold less water.To mop your timber floors, use a barely damp mop alongside the recommended floor cleaner for your boards. Soak up any remaining water from the surface afterwards. For a deeper clean, use a manufacturer-recommended liquid cleaner with a rag. LaminateLike timber and bamboo, laminate can be scratched so vacuum with the brush vacuum head on. As laminate is not real wood, DO NOT wax or polish it. Also, never steam clean your laminate flooring or use soaps, oils, or detergents on it. Laminate can be cleaned by simply damp mopping and spraying an appropriate cleaning solution onto either your mop or rag. Be wary of applying cleaning liquids directly onto laminate as this can cause staining. |

Rescue Tips for Hardwood FloorsAs resilient as hardwood flooring is, its natural origins and texture mean it isn’t actually invincible. Fortunately, there are methods you can use to repair most damage. Gently, gently is the thing to remember when it comes to fixing scuffs, scratches, or stains on hardwood floors. A bit of general advice for maintaining hardwood floors: DO NOT use abrasive cleaners and chemicals. Treat your hardwood floor like skin – test your cleaners on a small patch of floor somewhere inconspicuous before getting to work.
Scuff MarksTennis BallUse a sharp knife to cut a 1-inch X in the surface of an old (clean) tennis ball. Slot the ball onto the end of a mop or broom handle, then use the tennis ball covered end to gently scrub off the scuff mark.EraserUse a large, pink rubber pencil eraser (avoid plastic or gritty kinds), making sure the eraser is new or free from pencil marks and dirt. You can also buy rubber erasers made especially for hardwood flooring. Wipe the scuff mark with a damp sponge before rubbing the eraser over it. Do note, repeated use can dull your floor’s finish.Rubber-soled shoeDon’t have an eraser handy? Put on rubber soled shoes and twist them over the scuff mark. DO NOT use black rubber-soled shoes on light wood finishes.WD-40 / Similar productIs there anything WD-40 can’t do? Products like this work best on light scuff marks. Clean up afterwards as residue can leave the floor slippery.Toothpaste or baking sodaUse a clean, damp cloth or an old, moistened toothbrush to apply and rub gently with the grain of the wood. Avoid using this method on scratched or pitted areas as the residue will be hard to remove.Housecleaning/Magic eraser padRub the scuff mark with the grain of the wood according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Much like flooring erasers, repeated use can dull the floor finish.Fine steel woolFor very stubborn marks on dark wood. Use only the finest steel wool (#000 or #0000). Can cause dulling and abrade the wood. If you wax your floor, try coating the wool in a waxing solution before you begin.Mineral spiritsWipe scuff marks gently with a clean cloth. Caution: this is a caustic, flammable substance.ScratchesColouring InFor shallow scratches, you can use a flooring marker to colour in the damage. You’ll still be able to feel the scratch’s indent but you won’t see it. Touch-up kits are available with several colours of markers so you can find the best colour match for damaged areas.SandSand the surrounding area down using fine sandpaper to the level of the scratch so the surface is smooth again. Move the sandpaper gently over the scratch in line with the wood grain. Re-varnish, paint, or wax the area to return it to a uniform colour.StainsScrapeTo treat dried surface stains that haven’t soaked into the wood, use a sharp blade or putty knife and mild soapy water. Carefully scrape the stain off, making sure not to scratch the wood’s surface.SandFor shallow stains that have not penetrated deep into the wood, you may be able to sand them off and re-polish and varnish. For best results, contact a professional to match the colour of the sanded area to the rest of your floor most accurately.Replace the plankThis is a last resort for those particularly deep stains. |

Choosing Flooring for Small SpacesDon’t live in a sprawling mansion by the sea? Odds are that there’s at least one room in your home that’s on the tiny side, whether it’s a laundry or spare bedroom. For small r... Choosing Flooring for Small SpacesDon’t live in a sprawling mansion by the sea? Odds are that there’s at least one room in your home that’s on the tiny side, whether it’s a laundry or spare bedroom. For small rooms, the last thing you want to do is make the space look even smaller. The type of flooring you choose can have a huge impact on how big it feels. If you want to create the illusion of space, keep the following advice in mind when selecting your floor coverings.
TilesOne of the main things you want to watch out for when picking any kind of flooring for a small room is visual clutter. With tiles, grout lines take time for the eye to process, therefore making the space feel more crowded. Choosing a larger tile will reduce the number of grout lines and make the room feel more comfortable and spacious. Reserve heavily patterned tile for decorative trim or larger areas as a busy design in a small room can overwhelm and tighten the space.CarpetSolid colour carpet isn’t the only way to go when it comes to choosing carpet for a small room. That being said, if you do opt for a patterned carpet, select a carpet patterned in different shades of the same colour or choose a cut and loop pile carpet in a single colour where the pattern is sculpted into the pile for a floor with subtle visual interest and depth. Carpet comes in many colours and designs, but using carpet that matches the colour of your walls will make the space feel seamless, flowing on from floor to wall.Timber, Bamboo, Laminate, or Wood-look FlooringIn keeping with the goal of reducing visual clutter, when choosing timber or wood-look flooring, go with wider planks to cut down on the number of seams between planks. Make sure you also examine the wood grain. A smoother grain with less variations in colour and contrast will help to reduce visual clutter. Laying the planks adjacent to the longest wall will draw the eye along and out to emphasise the wider axis. For a bolder look, you can even lay your planks diagonally from corner to corner of the room to create the illusion of expansion.If you’d like to know more about how best to floor your small space, visit our showroom and talk to one of our friendly team members for expert advice. |

How to choose the right Carpeting for your CommercCommercial spaces are high in foot traffic, susceptible to mess and are required to stay in place for a long period of time. Choosing commercial carpet comes with a long list of considerations and should not be taken lightly. Whatever flooring you decide on, it needs to be suitable for the space, durable, easy to clean, cost-efficient, have a classified fire rating and is preferably timeless in aesthetic. The location and use of your commercial space play a big role in the type of commercial carpeting required.
Office and educational spaces such as classrooms and libraries usually require carpeting, which is not always practical for other commercial spaces. Consider the following tips when looking into your new commercial carpet flooring. Carpet ColourColour plays an important role in two ways. Firstly, and most importantly, a good colour choice means everyday dirt, stains and scuff marks can remain relatively hidden. This means your commercial space remains looking clean, without the need for constant, over the top upkeep. Washing carpets cost time and money and is something that can be minimised with a good colour choice. Carpets in grey’s, navy’s, browns and beiges hide dirt the best, particularly when they are done in a mild pattern. The overall colour choice also plays a huge role in the style and feel of the space. Consider your clientele base, work description and company branding when choosing the colour of your commercial flooring.Carpet TextureOnce again, the texture of your carpet plays a role in hiding traces of everyday wear and tear. Not only does it minimise the appearance of dirt, it also works to reduce the visibility of matting and wear down. Carpet texture is about the pile, the three major categories are cut pile, loop pile and combination pile. With cut pile carpeting, the carpet is made from strands of yarn that are cut at the end, resulting in a very soft, squishy feel.There are five styles of cut pile carpeting, however for commercial spaces Cable is best. This style has a lot of twist and height in the carpet which is better for high traffic areas. Loop pile carpet is where the yarn is looped together instead of being cut, resulting in a very strong carpet with a good ability to hide dirt. If you want a more durable loop carpet then go for level-loop where the strands are the same height. Multi-loop have strands at differing heights which create patterns in the carpet but are at higher risk of showing worn down areas. The final texture is combination carpet, where the carpet includes both cut and loop pile carpeting. Depending on the space, this style could be perfect for your area as you can combine the textures to your needs. Carpet ThicknessCarpet thickness is generally referred to as low pile, medium pile and high pile. The height of the pile reflects the thickness of the carpet. When choosing commercial flooring, low or medium pile thickness is preferable. These textiles are woven together more tightly. This means dust and dirt are easier to clean as they don’t dig into the carpet. Furthermore, matting and wear down from foot traffic is less visible. |

Why You Should Hire Professionals for Vinyl FlooriMany DIY fanatics occupy themselves too much with the idea that they can do it themselves that they do not always consider whether this is, in fact, the safest, most efficient option. Common...Why You Should Hire Professionals for Vinyl FlooriMany DIY fanatics occupy themselves too much with the idea that they can do it themselves that they do not always consider whether this is, in fact, the safest, most efficient option.
Common diy vinyl flooring installation blunders“I’ll save so much money”Sure, this is not impossible, just highly improbable, especially for a novice DIY enthusiast. Buying the materials is only the first step, you will then need specialist equipment, time and expertise to lay the vinyl flooring installation in such a way that it is done correctly the first time. Sadly, this is seldom the case with DIY flooring projects. Chances are mistakes will be made, because you are only human (not one that performs vinyl flooring installation for a living). This means you will need to pay for the damage done by the mistake and then buy more materials with which to fix the mistake. Not to mention the investment you will need to make to get all the tools and equipment required if you do not have them already will be somewhat immense if your goal is to save money. “I’ll get it done in one weekend” Frankly, you won’t, and you will strip the space of its functionality for some time. If you are prepared to go without a room serving its primary (or even any) function for an extended period of time then all is well. You will need to accept that without a team of professionals working (while you are at work yourself) means the house will be dedicated to you attempting to restore its functionality over (most likely multiple) weekends. This will lose its amusement factor for you and your family very, very quickly. The undeniable benefits of using professional vinyl flooring installersThere are some facts you just can’t get around when weighing the options between leaving the job to professional vinyl flooring installers and taking it on yourself. The professional will always have the upper hand when it comes to:Access to Industry Specific EquipmentTeams of vinyl flooring installers have specific equipment used to work the materials to inflict the least damage while installing the product with its longevity in mind. This equipment allows them to efficiently, quickly and professionally make quick work of your vinyl flooring installation.Experience with Varying Styles of HomesThe key word here is “experience.” Professional teams of vinyl flooring installers know exactly how to deal with any unforeseen architectural difficulties that even the most avid DIY fan doesn’t have the capacity to deal with.A Team to Get the Job Done, QuickVinyl flooring installers work in teams, this means much work is happening simultaneously.With a team that can move quickly and cohesively your home will be kitted out with a brand, spanking new vinyl flooring installations in a matter of days rather than “when I get to it.” There is much to be said for Infashion Flooring and how they streamline the process of giving your home or office space brand new floors.

Why Laminate Flooring is Great for Your Home.One of the most important decisions you will make for your home is the flooring.

Why Laminate Flooring is Great for Your Home.One of the most important decisions you will make for your home is the flooring. You will have to live with and on whatever you choose for a good few years, so you need to know you will be happy with your choice. That is why laminate flooring is a great choice for your home, because it offers you more than any other type of flooring.
It is cost effectiveOne of the biggest considerations in today’s economic climate is the cost of the project. So it is fortunate that laminate flooring is more economical than hardwood – amongst other types. The materials that make up laminate flooring are significantly more economical than hardwood while still having the potential to look like any kind of wood you want. So you can have the aesthetic you want, without the hefty price tag. Laminate flooring installers tend to charge around 50% less for installation than others. This means that you save on both the materials and installation, which is a huge bonus for your home budget.Versatility and comfortLaminate flooring is versatile in that you can pick and choose what sort of appearance you want. Whether you want oak, teak or pine, all these and more are available. There are even some natural stone and ceramic varieties on the market.Laminate flooring provides more comfort than tiles or hardwood. It is softer and warmer underfoot, which is a blessing especially in the icy winter months. Your nights will also be more comfortable, especially if you have nocturnal family members or guests, because the laminate will not creak or echo like hardwood and the softness and layers will also help to dampen sounds. Resistance to damage and the elementsIt is always devastating when an expensive hardwood floor gets scratched or damaged in some way. With laminate flooring this is far less of a concern. Firstly because it is cheaper, and secondly, laminate flooring is reasonably scratch resistant – especially higher grade varieties. Laminate flooring is also fade-resistant, so you can use it anywhere in the house without worrying about UV exposure.There is also a wear layer in laminate flooring which protects it from things like dirt and mud. This makes it perfect for application anywhere in your home, right up to your entrances. Health is also a factor here. Along with its resistance to UV exposure and dirt, laminate flooring is also naturally resistant to harmful mould and bacteria. For added peace of mind, it can be treated with special allergen resistant and anti-bacterial coatings to ensure your home has the ultimate protection. With all the benefits for your sense of style, your wallet, and even your health, now is the time to get a team of professional laminate flooring installers in to seal the deal. |

Almost 40 percent of households have dogs, while cats can be found in just under 30 percent of homes. With so many pets playing a big role in our daily lives, one of the biggest considerations for pet-owners is finding the right flooring.
Get it right, and you and your four-legged companions will be able to co-exist with minimal drama. Get the choice of carpet wrong, however, and you may spend countless hours forever trying to revive your once-beautiful surfaces. Fortunately, the good people at Infashion Flooring are here to guide you toward the best pet-friendly carpet for your home. Here are some of the pros and cons for carpet flooring for pet-owners, as well as how you can keep your carpet looking good. What pet-owners should bear in mind when shopping for flooring?Resistance to wear and tear from your pets’ claws is one property to consider for any flooring, as well as stain resistance for the occasional accident or mud tracked in from outdoors.Comfort should be one of the most informative factors in choosing your flooring – not only for you, but for your pets, too! For this reason, stone tiling is one of the less preferable options, as although it is highly resistant to scratching, it is also harder and less forgiving for pets walking and lying on it. Traction is another concern, especially for dogs with their nails. If you’ve got an excitable pup, more slippery surfaces such as hardwood flooring can mean they end up taking a power slide down the corridor in their effort to run and greet you at the door. CarpetThere are many benefits to using carpet flooring in your home, from comfort and warmth to the range of colours and styles perfect for adding a touch of flair. However, not all products are created equal when it comes to the best carpet for dogs and cats.Opt for carpet without loops, as these can potentially snag on your pets’ claws. Wool is a good option for durability and stain-resistance, although nylon is also cost-effective with high durability. Carpet tiles are another good option for pet-owners, as individual tiles can be easily replaced. If you’re going to use carpet in your home with pets, one of the best ways to use it is in lower-traffic areas such as bedrooms. ProsThe number one pro of carpet for pets is the comfort it provides underpaw. It’s a cosy place for your pets to lie down, as well as a soft landing for cats jumping down from countertops and couches. In addition, scratches from pet nails are less apparent on carpet.ConsSometimes it’s harder to clean up accidents, and old stains can be hard to remove. While a number of our residential carpets come with a water-resistant treatment, you’ll need to work quickly to address any pet urine, faeces or vomit stains if you want to reduce the impact on your beautiful carpet.Carpet can also be subject to greater wear and tear with pets, especially if you have more energetic cats or dogs. Choosing the right colour carpet for your petsThere are two schools of thought when it comes to picking your carpet colour. One is to pick a colour that is as close as possible to your pet’s hair, to minimise the appearance of any dropped pet hair in between vacuuming.Another approach however, is to go with a mid to darker shade to lessen the visual appearance of residual stain marks over time, and disguise the effects of wear and tear. Carpet care and maintenance with petsUsing doormats at entranceways can help to catch any excess dirt or debris your pets bring inside. If you have dogs, keep their nails trimmed to minimise the impact on the carpet, and address any accidents as soon as possible to prevent the substance from reaching the pile and causing more permanent damage.Looking to replace your flooring?If your home’s flooring has taken a beating over the years from sharing the space with your pets, or you’re looking to make a pet-friendly carpet choice, the team at Infashion Flooring is here to help.Don’t hesitate to get in touch with us today – we’d love to hear from you! |

What Is The Best Type Of Flooring For High TrafficWhen choosing flooring for your home, one of the first things you should consider is the amount of activity the room sees. Is it the main thoroughfare through your house, connecting the entrance to your living spaces or bedrooms? Is it a space where family and friends like to congregate, like the kitchen or lounge?
These types of spaces that see a lot of foot traffic need the right flooring to be able to handle the additional wear and tear. Here we look at the best flooring for high traffic, as well as pros and cons of various flooring materials. CarpetCarpet brings comfort and warmth to your home, and is often a more cost effective option. However, it tends to be more susceptible to wear and tear over the years, with the fibres pilling or bald patches appearing.If your heart is set on using carpet, however, there are some types of carpet that are more suited to high-traffic areas. Nylon carpet for example is incredibly durable, making it a good choice for hallways and stairs. Level loop pile carpets tend to be hard-wearing, and are less likely to get crushed underfoot – although if you have pets it may catch in their claws. Tip sheared pile is another popular choice, as it provides a level, smooth finish while also concealing foot prints. Timber flooringAn obvious choice when it comes to finding durable flooring for high-traffic areas is timber. The right type of hardwood floor, installed correctly can last for decades.The dense nature of timber flooring means that it can take a lot of wear and tear, while still maintaining its classic, stylish finish. However, timber floors also require care to keep them looking their best. If you notice the flooring losing its glossy shine in high-traffic areas, you may need to buff or recoat the floor to support its durability and moisture-resistance. Be sure to ask our expert team at Infashion Flooring about the wear layer on our different timber products to find the best option for your home. Laminate flooringLaminate flooring is a stalwart in the world of durable flooring, being both hard-wearing and more cost-effective than wooden flooring. It consists of layers of laminated wood, treated with resin for moisture-resistance. One of the best parts of laminate flooring is the sheer range of choices when it comes to the appearance. Laminate flooring is covered with a high-resolution photographic print, meaning that it can be tailored to suit a broad range of colour schemes, as well as being able to give the appearance of a wood or stone finish.Over the top of the printed surface is a clear, highly durable wear layer, which also gives laminate flooring its water resistant properties. For high-traffic areas of the home, enquire about laminate flooring with a thicker wear layer, such as 12-15 millimetres. Vinyl flooringPerhaps one of the best materials when it comes to finding flooring that is both comfortable, stylish and capable of handling heavy foot traffic is vinyl. Easy to install, vinyl flooring is soft underfoot – an added bonus if it’s being used in a busy area of the home.Vinyl comes in a range of shades and effects, from rustic wood to classic tile, making it perfect for anywhere from the kitchen to the dining room. Caring for vinyl is also fairly straightforward, requiring minimal moisture or mopping. Simply dust and vacuum, or use vinyl-specific cleaning products as recommended. To reduce the amount of vacuuming or dusting, it’s also a good idea to use colourfast walk off mats at any entry points to your home, allowing the majority of outdoor dirt and grit to be picked up by the mat rather than spread across your floor. If you have pets, ensure their nails are kept trimmed to minimise the risk of scratches. Looking for hard-wearing, durable flooring for busy areas in your home?If your current flooring is in need of an update, or is beginning to show its age, it’s time to talk to the expert team at Infashion Flooring. In addition to having a vast range of flooring options in store, our staff will be able to help guide you toward the best product for your needs.
