A well laid cork tile floor can last a lifetime and some basic maintenance steps always keep it looking better for longer.

Cork floors can mark, dent and scratch from time to time. The use of felt floor protectors under furniture and dirt trapping mats at external entrances helps to keep scratching and premature wear to a minimum. Sweep or vacuum your cork floor regularly to keep grit and small stones from scratching your floor.

When washing your floor, use a barely damp mop and the recommended floor cleaner. When the coating on your floor begins to show signs of wear, it is advisable to re-coat your floor. Re-coating is usually required every 5 - 10 years in residential applications and at more regular intervals in commercial areas.

Never steam clean your cork floor and only use maintenance products recommended by the manufacturers of the cork flooring you have selected and installed.
