Maintain your walkways to avoid tracking in of dirt. Stains can also be tracked in from your driveway, as tar and asphalt will permanently stain your floors surface. Use latex-based driveway sealers to prevent such damage. All rugs should allow floors to breathe. Use no-slip rug underlayment made especially for hard surface flooring to prevent your rugs from moving.
High Heels Keep high heels in good repair.
Heels that have worn down or lost their protective cap exposing the steel support rod will dent and pit wood, fracture tiles or stone and perforate your vinyl flooring. Today's vinyl floors are tough enough to withstand even the most active families but are not indestructible and will dull over time. To protect your floor and renew lost luster it is necessary to apply a coat of polish as a part of your periodic maintenance routine. Use the manufacturers recommended products when known. Make sure your floor is clean and thoroughly dry before applying polish.
