Floor Stripping and Waxing Services
Floors are the unsung heroes of many commercial buildings. Every day they take a beating with tracked-in snow, slush, sand and salt from outdoors, scratches from boxes being dragged across them, and the dust (and dirt and other debris) settles on them. Not only is floor maintenance important for the esthetics of your business, but also to protect the investment you have in the largest surface area in your business.
Although floors are used to getting walked on, they actually have an important role in the appearance and presentation of your business. Like it or not, customers will make snap judgements about your company based on how clean it looks. Do your floors measure up?
Build Up
Over time, dirt, grime and old wax accumulate in the minor scratches of your flooring and create a dull layer. In heavy traffic areas, deep scratches, scrapes and wear marks can attract even more dirt – possibly damaging the floor. In addition, an accumulation of wax on polished floors can cause discolouration.
This layer can’t simply be scrubbed or buffed away. At this point, the floors need to be stripped, and a fresh coat of wax applied. This will protect the flooring and leave them with a lustrous lustre. Stripping and waxing your floors should be considered part of your regular maintenance schedule.
Three Step Process
When it comes to floor stripping and waxing, there are three steps required to restore them to a brilliant shine.
- Floor Stripping. This process removes excess layers of wax, dirt and buildup.
Sealing.When all contaminants have been removed by stripping, the floors will be treated with a high-quality sealer. This step helps preserve the flooring and protect it from future stains and contaminants. Polishing to a sparkling sheen will prepare the floor for the next step.
Floor Waxing.The final step is to cover the entire floor with an industrial-grade wax. This provides a deep, protective lustre and will breathe life back into your flooring.
To ensure your floor is preserved and to protect your investment, stripping should be left to a trained professional. Unfortunately, if floors are not stripped properly, you’ll be applying new wax to an imperfect surface.
It’s worth noting that not all floors are created equal, nor do they require the same amount of maintenance and care. The amount of traffic and type of business will help determine your floor stripping and waxing needs. High traffic floors should be stripped every 3 months, medium traffic floors semi-annually and low-traffic areas once per year.
After Care
- We recommend using a mop rather than a broom when cleaning your waxed floors. A mop will remove dirt and debris while a broom tends to stir up dust, which will then land on other furniture or equipment in the room.
- Spills happen - that can’t be avoided. Do your best to deal with them immediately to decrease the negative impact on your floor’s finish.
- Use floor mats at your entrances to collect dirt and keep it from getting ground into your flooring’s finish.
- Protect your floor when moving boxes, crates or furniture. Install pads on the legs of furniture to prevent scratches.
