How the French Treat a Floor

Today's Tip

Wooden floors are waxed, not sealed under plastic. They mark, they age, and the marks are accepted as history rather than damage. A floor that cannot be repaired is regarded as a poor floor.

Try This

Stop trying to keep your wooden floor perfect. Wax it twice a year, live with the marks, and repair rather than replace. It will outlast three laminate floors.
