It’s unlikely that you spend your day fantasizing about returning home to clean your floors. After a long day of work, school, or whatever you spend your time doing, you likely don’t want to spend even more energy cleaning up. Choosing low-maintenance flooring is a major step toward freeing up your time to do what you want instead of fighting a constant battle against dirt. 

As a bonus, products like the Casabella Clean Water Spin Mop are even more effective with easy-care floors. A basic cleaning routine keeps things looking new and fresh, so you can go about your day without worrying about your messy floors. 

Look at the six options below to see great flooring choices without the headache of constant upkeep. 

#1 - Ceramic Tile

Ceramic tile is one of the best choices for low-cost and low maintenance. It’s water-resistant and holds up well against the heaviest foot traffic. Tile in kitchens and bathrooms protects against tough messes and heavy use. 

A quick daily sweep with your Casabella Upright Sweep Set keeps dirt and grit off the surface, and you don’t have to worry about simple things like mopping and leaving damage behind. Tile also comes in different colors and patterns to tailor the look to your aesthetic. 

#2 - Luxury Vinyl 

Luxury vinyl flooring, or LVT (luxury vinyl tile), is massively popular due to its ability to mimic high-end flooring like hardwood. However, it’s substantially less expensive than natural wood and much easier to maintain. It also holds up well against heat and water and is easy to install, so it tends to be favored by those doing DIY flooring projects and professionals. 

Cleaning LVT doesn’t require anything special or unique. Remove any excess or loose debris with a broom or vacuum and mop with warm water. Flooding your flooring is unnecessary, so you shouldn’t have a long dry time afterward. 

#3 - Natural Stone 

You may be accustomed to seeing natural stone countertops, like quartz and granite, but this material also makes fantastic flooring. It’s complex, sleek, beautiful, and easy to clean. Don’t worry about scratches and dents, as natural stone is highly resistant to both and doesn’t warm. 

A quick sweep and mop job will keep it clean as a whistle, too, so you won’t need to spend more energy than it takes to grab a Casabella microfiber spin mop refill! 

#4 - Hardwood 

While it’s true that some hardwood is high maintenance, that isn’t always the case. You couldn't ask for easier or more beautiful flooring if you opt for well-sealed hardwood with a high Janka rating (meaning it holds up well against scratches, dents, and similar damage). 

When it’s properly sealed, hardwood is incredibly durable. The right finish and sealant make it resistant to moisture, too, so you can even make it work in rooms like your kitchen. Hardwood can be refinished, too, and it’s entirely possible to make it last a lifetime. 

#5 - Porcelain Tile

Porcelain tiles appear similar to ceramic, but there are a few significant differences. Porcelain is made from clay, and the tiles are considerably heavier than ceramic. They’re highly resistant to wear and moisture and don’t even require sealing to achieve those feats. 

It’s one of the simplest flooring options to maintain, and you can wipe down porcelain tile with mild soap and water. It doesn’t require unique products or care, and it’s at home in your entryway, bathroom, kitchen, or wherever you want beautiful, low-effort floors. 

#6 - Linoleum 

Linoleum isn’t quite as popular as other choices on this list, but it’s coming back in style thanks to its affordability and minimal maintenance requirements. It’s less expensive than several other flooring choices out there and lasts incredibly long. It’s also relatively easy to install, so refresh your home with new linoleum flooring without paying a professional team.

To keep linoleum floors looking like they’re brand-new, just mop with hot water, a simple cleaning solution, and your Casabella spin mop. With just a tiny amount of effort, you’ll get rid of even stuck-on messes. 

Enjoy Your Home Without the Hassle
