Keeping Your Hardwood Safe When You Have Pets

Keeping Your Hardwood Safe When You Have Pets
Here are some simple tips for keeping your hardwood floors safe when you have pets.

Your pets are part of your family.
As much as you love to see them run around on your floors, you
might wince when they’re done. That’s because you’ve noticed the unsightly
scratches, dings, and dents they left behind. Here are some simple tips for
keeping your hardwood floors safe when you have pets.

Pick a Different
Stain

The first thing you will want to
think about doing is picking a different stain for your hardwood
floors
. Lighter stains are particularly good for this purpose. That’s
because they do a better job of hiding any possible scratches that are on the
floor. The lighter stain is also more effective at hiding the dust and other
debris that is on the floor. It also depends on the color of your furry friend
– depending on what color your pet is, you could choose that stain!

Don’t Go Glossy

A glossy finish looks good. It
looks so good that it can help boost the value of your home. So if you’re
looking to sell your home and move any time soon, that’s good news. But all the
same, if you have pets, you shouldn’t choose glossy hardwood floors. Satin and
matte do much better jobs hiding dents and other signs of damage.
Plus, you might be leaving damage on your hardwood that you are blaming on your
pets – don’t do that! High heels, rocks in shoes, and moving furniture around
can cause more problems than you might think.

Trim Toenails

One last piece of advice is to trim
the toenails on your pet. This sounds silly, but it works. Dogs should have
their nails trimmed every two months or so. Unfortunately, trimming the claws
on your cat is a bad idea, so it isn’t much you can do in that respect. If you
hear clicking when your dog walks on your hardwood floor, then it’s time for a
trim.
