A beautiful hard floor is the calling card of your home. But nothing is more frustrating than an annoying squeaking or creaking sound when you walk across your floor. Fortunately, there is an effective solution! With the right care and maintenance of James products, your floor stays radiant and quiet. In this blog, we share practical tips, explain what causes this noise, and show you how to easily use James to create a comfortable and clean home.
Why do hard floors make noise?
Many people mainly think of convenience when it comes to hard floors such as vinyl, PVC, or laminate. But sometimes noises still occur when you walk on them. The most common causes are:
- Dirt buildup: Dust and grains of sand act like sandpaper between the floor and shoes or furniture.
- Incorrect floor protection: No or poor felt pads under chairs and tables cause friction and therefore more noise.
- Not cleaning properly: Layers of grease or wax make the floor sticky and cause walking noises.
Prevention is better than cure: tips for a quiet floor
With the right approach, you can prevent annoying noises before they even start. Here are the main tips:
- Vacuum and clean regularly with a mild, safe cleaner such as James Basisreiniger.
- Always use caps or felt pads under chair and table legs. Check them regularly for wear.
- Leave wax layers or harsh maintenance products out; they cause more problems than they solve.
