How Do You Protect Wooden Flooring From Furniture Scratching?
Hardwood flooring is expensive and can increase your home’s value as long as you maintain it and keep it looking new. In order to protect wooden flooring, it’s important to be extra cautious when moving furniture, even small end tables, because the feet can easily catch and scratch the wood flooring. If the piece of furniture is heavy enough, you can deeply scratch your floor, making it difficult to camouflage. Preventing damage to your wood floor is easy if you prevent your furniture from scratching it. You can accomplish this with felt protector pads sold at your local hardware store in pre-cut rounds or large squares you cut to size yourself. Write down how many furniture pieces you have (or will have) on your wooden flooring so you’ll know how many packages of felt protector pads to purchase. Include every furniture piece from chairs to sofas to end and coffee tables unless the piece resides on an area rug. Purchase felt pads at your local hardware store. Make sure you have enough
