Pergo Presto Laminate Flooring may be easy to maintain, but it will still thrive on some tender loving care. Proper cleaning and maintenance will ensure that your floor covering puts its best foot forward for years to come. Pergo offers a wealth of laminate flooring information, including cleaning instructions.

The latest glueless designs are so well engineered, that it takes a minimal amount of time to keep them in tip-top shape. Generally speaking, Pergo Presto Laminate Flooring requires little more than a dust mop, some careful light vacuuming, and from time to time a wash with a (very slightly!) damp mop. Never, ever give these floors a wet wash.

The manufacturer also has its own Pergo Laminate And Hard Surface Cleaner. The company stresses that your floors won’t take kindly to detergent-based cleaners, abrasives, wax-based floor products, or polish. You don’t want to dull the floor surface with layers of stubborn residue.

When it comes to protection, area rugs at all the entrances will help to collect gravel or dirt sticking to shoes before it can scratch your floors. Felt floor protectors can be used under chair or table legs. Ensure that chairs have rubber wheels. Don’t move heavy furniture without some protection on the floor.

If you do experience a problem with scratches or scuff marks on Pergo American Cottage or Presto Laminate Floors, you can touch it up with Pergo Finishing Putty. In severe cases, the beauty of laminate flooring is that a plank can be replaced if necessary.

Now, don’t wait until this happens and then expect to be able to purchase more planks that are identical to the ones you installed initially. You may be faced with a discontinued Pergo Flooring line or noticeable shade differences. Always buy some extra planks when you start out and find out how to store these safely. You may very well need them down the line.

You only have to visit a few home improvement forums online to discover what a dilemma discontinued Pergo Flooring can create if you don’t prepare for it in advance. With a bit of planning, this can be avoided.

When it comes to taking good care of your Pergo Presto Flooring, it is a good idea to check with your supplier or the manufacturer before using any cleaning products. A mistake here can cost you your warranty.
