Water is one of the leading causes of damage to wood floors, and any moisture can lead to damp issues, wood rot, and more. Varnishes, oils, and protective seals will help some, but the best protection will come from proactive measures. A humidifier, as example, can be used to help keep the wood boards from shrinking too much in the wetter months.
