I have been working with Somerset for the last 8 years, and am pleased to say that are the most consistent hardwood company around. The majority of their products are made in the USA. Their prices are far better than other mills, yet their quality is matched only by the more expensive wood manufacturers. They also have the most diverse collection of wood floors.
Sweep or vacuum your hardwood floor on a regular basis just as you would any floor covering.
Clean up spills with Somerset's Ultimate™ Wood Floor Cleaner which is specially formulated for the Ultimate finish. This product should also be used for general cleaning, as needed.
Place doormats at all entrances to prevent dirt and grit from being tracked on your floor. Make sure you keep doormats and rugs clean.
To avoid scratching and damaging the floor's surface, place felt furniture pads or other protective pads such as gray rubber non-marking casters on chair and table legs and any other furniture surface that could possibly cause finish indentations. Be sure to keep the pads clean and free of grit and dirt. Don't use ball-type casters or casters made of hard materials such as plastic or metal — these can damage your floor.
Make sure the heels of your shoes are in good repair—especially high heels. Heels that are missing their caps or are worn through exposing metal or other abrasive surfaces can cause scratches and dents on any floor's surface. And, of course, never walk across your floor in shoes that have cleats or spikes.
Never allow water (or other liquids) to stand on a hardwood floor for any length of time. Also, don't ever pour water on your floor—it can cause damage to the wood's structure and to the finish.

Somerset is a Privately Owned Company with over 20 Years Growth in the Hardwood Industry. We are experts in the wood business, building a strong reputation for manufacturing quality Appalachian lumber and unfinished flooring for many years prior to entering into the manufacture of prefinished flooring. From the outset, we made a major commitment to produce the finest quality prefinished flooring—from our investment in machinery, materials, and processes, to the recruiting and hiring of skilled employees. As demand for our prefinished flooring has seen significant growth, we have expanded to multiple manufacturing facilities in Somerset, Burnside, and Munfordville, Kentucky.
