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’s an effective solution! With the right care and maintenance using James products, your floor will stay radiant and quiet. In this blog, we share practical tips, explain what causes these sounds, and show you how James makes it easy to keep your home comfortable and clean.
Why do hard floors make noise?
Many people choose hard floors like vinyl, PVC, or laminate for their convenience. But sometimes, you still hear noises when walking on them. The most common causes are:
- Dirt buildup: Dust and sand grains act like sandpaper between the floor and your shoes or furniture.
- Incorrect floor protection: Missing or worn felt pads under chairs and tables cause friction and therefore more noise.
- Poor cleaning: Grease or wax layers 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 most important tips:
- Vacuum and clean regularly with a mild, safe cleaner like James Basisreiniger.
- Always use caps or felt pads under chair and table legs. Check them regularly for wear.
- Avoid wax layers or aggressive maintenance products; these cause more problems than they solve.
