Proper care ensures the beauty and longevity of your timber floor. At Vienna Woods, we recommend a simple, consistent maintenance routine using professional-grade products designed for timber flooring.
Specialist timber floor care products
Proper maintenance extends the life and appearance of a timber floor.
For day-to-day cleaning and ongoing care, we recommend using products
specifically designed for timber flooring finishes.
Our dedicated floor care store, First Floor, specialises in professional-grade timber floor cleaning and maintenance products, trusted by flooring professionals and homeowners across New Zealand.
Routine Cleaning
Sweep or vacuum regularly using a soft brush attachment to remove dust and grit. Clean with a pH-neutral wood floor cleaner, such as those from our FirstFloor range. Avoid harsh detergents or excessive water, as moisture can damage the timber.
Oiled Floors
Use a specialist timber soap to maintain the protective oil coating. Periodically reapply maintenance oil to refresh the surface and enhance resistance to wear. This preserves the natural texture and character of the timber.
For regular cleaning, use a timber floor cleaner designed to remove dirt without stripping protective finishes.
Lacquered Floors
Clean with a lacquer-safe cleaner and consider applying a maintenance polish a few times a year to maintain sheen and durability. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals.
Professional Care
For homeowners comparing professional products versus household cleaners, First Floor provides guidance on choosing the correct timber floor cleaning system based on finish type.
For a deep refresh, Vienna Woods offers a professional maintenance service that restores the finish and prolongs the life of your floor.
