Do these floors look weird to you?

[Homebew1]

Apologies in advance I’m going to post a few things on this board relating to my new home. The floors look a bit strange to me, are they supposed to look like this? It’s wood all throughout the bottom floor. I don’t know if I’m supposed to do something to them like polish them maybe? What’s your thoughts?

They look fine to me!

What do you think is wrong with them?

Not sure what we’re looking at, are they scuffed a bit?

No they look perfectly fine.

Hard to tell what you mean from a photo.

I'm honestly not sure what could possibly be wrong with them.

Looks like a nice wood floor.

There’s some scuffing at the top but I think they look fine. They’re not highly polished, I don’t think that’s as common anymore, they look more natural.

Thank you all! Sorry I was just a bit u sure as they look scruffier up and quite dull so thought maybe I had to polish them. I’m extra anxious as Inlaws visiting this weekend to see new house lol! So I didn’t want any critical comments from mother in law.

I thought maybe I need to polish the floor as My last house the wooden floors were shiny.

Maybe I should use this product:

That sounds like a MIL problem, the floor is fine!

Maybe you should tell your MIL to keep her opinions to herself

Be very careful about polishing wooden floors - they can end up being very slippery, as I found to my cost, the one and only time I did it - I ended up going arse over tip and breaking several ribs in the fall! Sod that. And anyone who tuts over the state of your floors when you've only just moved in, needs to give their head a wobble.

Your floor is lovely.

Your MIL isn’t, by the sounds of it.

I wonder if you’re focusing on the wrong thing here.

Method do a lovely wooden floor cleaner that doesn’t leave it slippery. Don’t polish them unless you like ice skating

Are you sure they are Wood and not laminate? There is no need to polish laminate (or to polish wood either - your floor looks fine to me!)

It’s your house, your MIL can do one. Please don’t polish matte wooden floors because you fear her comments.

Thank you everyone x

Don’t use a mop and water on them, I’m sure there must be something on the market to shine wooden floors.
