Installation and Maintenance
Installation
Installing your Shaw Endura Plus Oyster Oak flooring can be a rewarding DIY project with the right preparation and techniques. Here’s how to ensure a smooth and successful installation:
- Preparation: Begin by ensuring your subfloor is clean, dry, and level. Any debris or moisture can affect the adhesion and fit of your vinyl planks.
- Tools Needed: Gather all necessary tools before starting. You will need a measuring tape, utility knife, rubber mallet, spacers, and a tapping block.
- Layout Planning: Plan the layout of your planks to avoid narrow strips at the walls. Measure the room and calculate the plank width that will be used across the space.
- Installation: Start laying your planks from the left corner of the room and proceed right. The Fold-N-Go locking system allows the planks to easily snap together. Use the tapping block and rubber mallet to secure the planks tightly without damaging the edges.
- Finishing Touches: Install baseboards or quarter-round molding to cover the expansion gaps along the walls. This not only completes the look but also helps to hold the floor in place.
By following these steps, you can achieve a beautifully flowing floor that enhances the overall look and feel of your space, providing a sense of accomplishment and long-lasting satisfaction.
Maintenance
Maintaining your Shaw Endura Plus Oyster Oak flooring is straightforward and ensures its longevity and pristine appearance:
- Regular Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and grit that can scratch the floor. Use a damp mop with a mild cleaner designed for vinyl flooring to clean up any spills or stains.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, waxes, or solvents, as these can damage the surface and finish of your vinyl flooring.
- Prevent Scratches: Place protective pads under furniture legs and avoid dragging heavy objects across the floor. Consider using doormats at entrances to minimize the dirt brought onto your floors.
- Immediate Spill Response: Wipe up spills as soon as they occur to prevent water from seeping between the planks, which can cause damage over time.
By adhering to these simple guidelines, your Shaw Endura Plus Oyster Oak flooring will continue to bring warmth and elegance to your home for years, maintaining its condition and functionality. Whether in a bustling family kitchen or a quiet home office, this flooring combines durability with style to meet the demands of your daily life while keeping a fresh and inviting look.
