Installation Instructions
Hardwood flooring is a natural product; therefore defects in the flooring can occur in the manufacturing process or naturally as a characteristic of the wood. Ribadao floors are manufactured within accepted industry standards, allowing for up to 7-10% defective product (may be natural or manufacturing related) based on the original hardwood flooring purchase order. It is highly recommended to increase at least your order by an additional 10% of flooring to allow for cutting and grading of material.
Prior to installation, the installer and owner assume all responsibility for final inspection and quality of the product. Flooring should be carefully examined for finish and quality. Do not install hardwood flooring that is unacceptable; contact seller immediately. Final grade, manufacturing, finish quality checks and final approval of the product are the sole responsibility of the owner and installer.
Common Sense Care
It is important to keep your hardwood floors free from dirt, water, food, grease, and other spills which can damage the floor or finish. Periodically clean floors using a leading brand of cleaner made for prefinished hardwood floors. Do not use ammonia or oil-based wax, polish, abrasive cleaners, or furniture cleaners. Make sure to install floor protectors under furniture, chairs or other items that may sit directly on your hardwood floor to help prevent scratches, scarring, and dents. Regularly, sweep, vacuum to keep dirt and grit from dulling the shine and scratching the finish. Wipe up all spills promptly with a soft, mop. Avoid walking on floors with sharp, stiletto high heel shoes or shoes with soles in need of repair.
