A floor is the walking surface of a room or vehicle. Floors vary from simple dirt in a cave to many-layered surfaces using modern technology. Floors may be stone, wood, bamboo, metal, or any other material that can hold a person's weight.

The levels of a building are often referred to as floors and are described in the article storey. This article describes the structure of floors.

Floors typically consist of a subfloor for support and a floor covering used to give a good walking surface. In modern buildings the subfloor often has electrical wiring, plumbing, and other services built in. Because floors meet many needs, some essential to safety, floors are built to strict building codes.

Special floor structures

Where a special floor structure like a floating floor is laid upon another floor then both may be referred to as subfloors.

Special floor structures are used for a number of purposes:

How do you get your floors so clean?
Q. My new apartment has hardwood floors and tile in certain areas. I cleaned the floors with a swiffer wetjet and sweeper but they're still dirty! They dont look dirty, but when I walk barefoot, my feet turn black. At my friend's house, he has the same floors but I walk around his place and never get black feet. How does one get their floors THAT clean? Is it just moping it over and over until all the dirt is gone? Should I use a different product?

A. I had the same problem when I moved into my older apt in NYC and nothing would get them clean. For the tile mop with bleach and that should take care of it. For the hardwood your going to have to mop a lot however don't use and oil based soaps. I tried it and the problem got worse because they tend to make more dirt stick. I moped twice a week with whatever all purpose floor cleaner I had and now that I got them clean I use Mrs. Meyers all purpose cleaner once a week, it gets them really clean and does not leave any residue that causes the dirt to stick to the floor. Also you need a real mop a swiffer is worthless for a really dirty floor. Get a mop with absorbent strips not a sponge mop or cotton mop, they scrub the best.

Do hardwood floors have to match upstairs and downstairs?
Q. We just bought a house with brazilian cherry floors upstairs and lighter, Pergo floors on the main floor? Is this ok or should they match? If this is ok, what color should the stairs be? Thanks. Right now the stairs are stained to match the brazilian cherry hardwood upstairs. Eventually I would like to update the downstairs with brzilian cherry as well.

A. The cherry , you really don t want a laminate on the stairs. If anything a carpet or carpet runner on the stairs. Any hard surface on stairs can be slippery.And with the way laminate needs to be done on stairs its a tripping hazard with the stair nose. GL

What is the easiest way to clean white tile floors?
Q. When I do clean my tile floors they are very clean and pretty. But I have two dogs and a 6 year old. I am not wanting to spend all my time cleaning floors! I sweep/vacuum then mop and it takes me 2 hours and the next day they are all dirty again. With dog hair, dirt, sand and food spills! I am so tired of cleaning my tile floors I am starting to think I should change to carpet or something. Help!

A. It would work even better on tile. Now, with two dogs, you obviously would be doing this at least twice as often as I would with one dog. Okay, we have two dogs, but Lucky Dog only goes outside to (ahem!) and comes right back--no dirty paws there. You could change to carpet if you want to have all that crud with you all the time locked into the fabric of the carpet, or you could keep the easily-cleaned tile and choose between dogs or ease.
