5. Floor Protection
Felt Pads
An ounce of prevention goes a long way. Invest in felt pads to place on the bottom of furniture. I always throw in a set of felt pads as a closing gift for my home buyers. Make sure you put them on the bottom of your chairs. You can thank me later. You can purchase felt pads via this link on Amazon: Felt Pads
Furniture Casters
Furniture Casters Will ensure that your large pieces of furniture don’t scratch your floors. These are designed for furniture pieces that shouldn’t move on a regular basis. Furniture casters typically have a felt bottom that prevents scratching. They are excellent for all hard floor surfaces to include hardwoods, tile, and stone. Shown here are the square furniture coasters, they also come in circles. as well.
Office Chair Wheels
Many of us have chairs with wheels, and they are here to stay. Though they aren’t recommended for hardwood floors, you can minimize the damage by using universal wheels or using a mat underneath your chair area. If you must have a rolling chair, ( I have a chair with wheels, which by the way is incredibly comfy) then I highly recommend these office chair caster wheels.
Office Chair Mat
Office Chair Mats are a lifesaver for hardwood floors. You don’t have to settle for drab ugly mats. Here are a few cute mats that will go well under your rolling chairs; Amazon has a nice selection, so take your pick. You choose from a variety of Office Chair Mats
Anti- Fatigue Mat
While we are discussing mats consider an anti-fatigue mat for your kitchen and even in your bathroom. 1. It prevents spills from getting on your floors. 2. It helps to alleviate the strain of standing on your feet for an extended time period. Anti Fatigue Mat, for Kitchens, Standup desks, Garages, and more. Designed to relieve knee, foot, and back pain. I have an anti-fatigue mat in my office in front of my stand-up desk. It makes a world of difference.
Dog Mats
If you have a dog that comes and goes, then consider the My Doggy Place-Ultra Absorbent Chenille Dog Door Mat. You have your choice of 20 colors that will coordinate with your decor. Your four-legged friend will absolutely love how soft it is on their paws. The doggy door mat is a great housewarming gift for friends with pets
Kitty Litter Mats
Cats typically don’t cause a ton of damage to hardwood floors. However, if they get kitty litter stuck in their paws, they could scratch your floors, hence it is still a good idea to get your feline a kitty litter mat. I recommend the Polarduck Cat Litter Trapping Mat. It comes in two standard sizes either black or gray. The Polarduck Kitty Litter Mat has a self-trapping design, hence the kitty litter is trapped directly on the mat and makes clean-up a breeze.
Pet Urine detector – UV flashlight
No matter how well trained a dog or cat is, they will at some point and time decide that the floor or your carpet is their personal potty. A black-light flashlight will help you to identify and detect urine pet stains on your floors and carpets.
Doggie Socks
Make sure that your pet is ok with wearing doggie socks. This may or may not work. A few customers, swear by them. They are cute and will keep their feet warm in the winter months. Doggie Socks will protect your hardwoods from scratches.
