Cleaning laminate floors doesn’t have to be difficult
Laminate flooring can be a good, cost-effective option for those who enjoy the look of wood or other surface types, but who need an alternative because of subfloor issues or other complicating factors. With the right system in place, cleaning laminate floors is really quite simple. The Bona experts are here to help!
What to know about cleaning laminate floors
First, cleaning laminate floors can be a very easy task, especially with Bona Hard Surface Floor Cleaner. Before we jump into that, though, we’ll take just a moment to talk about what makes laminate flooring different.
- While very durable, laminate flooring is not moisture-proof, so it’s important to avoid spilling and excess water or moisture exposure to prevent damage, such as warping.
- Unlike wood floors, laminate floors cannot be sanded and refinished, so the only option is to replace the flooring where deep damage has occurred. Prevention is the key. That means developing a solid cleaning routine for taking excellent care of your laminate floors to help them last.
With that, let’s dive right in!

How to clean laminate floors: a quick and easy guide
Laminate floor cleaning is easy when you have the right set of Bona tools and floor cleaners for the job.
You will need:
Daily laminate floor cleaning
Use a microfiber dusting pad and mop to pick up everyday dirt and debris. This is the first line of defense, as these particles, if left to accumulate, can scratch/wear down the protective surface of laminate flooring.
Weekly laminate floor cleaning
Use your spray mop or microfiber mop and laminate floor cleaner to safely clean and refresh your floors. Avoid DIY laminate floor cleaners, as most of these involve the use of large amounts of water. Water and laminate don’t mix!
Monthly laminate floor cleaning
For deep cleaning your laminate floor, use the Bona PowerPlus Microfiber Deep Clean Pad with Bona PowerPlus Antibacterial Hard-Surface Floor Cleaner. Deep cleaning is recommended every four to six weeks, depending on traffic. Polishing is generally recommended every two months, also depending on foot traffic. For best results and to avoid issues that may lead to spots, streaks, or other unwanted blemishes, use Bona’s ready-to-use, specially-formulated laminate floor polish. Deep cleaning and polishing will help extend your laminate floor’s life and beauty.
