As
visitors and employees enter the front offices and public areas of a
facility, their first impression is greatly influenced by the
appearance of the floors.
Maintaining hard floors is a big job. It is estimated that
40% of all housekeeping resources are spent on floor care.
Therefore, it is important to choose the safest, most effective
cleaning products and employ the most efficient procedures.

Maintenance & Refinishing

Whether a marble, terrazzo, ceramic, or vinyl tile we can bring
your floors back to life with a deep strip, reseal, and wax.

concrete or a painted surface, we can also bring those floors
back to life with a thorough machine scrub and degreasing.

to visit your premises and present you with some suggestions for
their maintenance to ensure a long life for your hard floor
coverings.
If your need is that of a one time restoration , we would be
pleased to help you out as well.
Whatever the case may be, our experience has taught us that all
or all three of these procedures must be implemented into any
floor care maintenance program.
Floor
Care Maintenance Program
Regular
Maintenance
Thoroughly
sweep and mop floor surfaces. Most fresh scuff marks on the
floor can be removed if there is sufficient wax wax on the floor
and the procedure is done often and thoroughly.
Using a floor machine, floor surfaces must be buffed to maintain
a bright, scuff free shine. This procedure must be undertaken
when mopping alone no longer provides the desired results.
Interim
Maintenance
Using
a floor machine, floor surfaces must be scrubbed to remove
ground in soil embedded in with the top layers of wax and
recoated with one or two coats of wax is required. This
procedure will ensure a sufficient number of protective layers
of wax are on the floor as well as ensure a bright premium
quality shine.
Restoration
Maintenance
Hard
floor surfaces must be completely stripped of old wax, resealed
and rewaxed. This procedure is undertaken when the previously
mentioned interim maintenance procedure no longer provides the
desired results.
In
the past 10 years, there have been tremendous technological advances
made in floor care products.
All effective floor care programs incorporate a system of
floor care products that are compatible, designed to work together
in protecting and enhancing hard floor surfaces.
Hard floor care can be expensive if the correct procedures
are not utilized. Cleaning products, no matter how good they are,
will be inadequate unless they are used with correct, well-executed,
properly timed procedures. Improper care will damage or discolor the
finish, requiring more frequent stripping. Understanding of floor
care chemistry, equipment, and procedures is vital to providing
professional service
The
key to a successful Hard Floor Care Program is making full use of
the Preventive Care procedures.
The frequent and effective use of walk-off mats, dust
mopping, spot mopping, wet mopping, and spray buffing will increase
the length of time between the costly Corrective and Restorative
Care procedures.
Preventive
floor care is the most important hard floor care stage and is the
KEY TO SUCCESS in all floor care systems.
Preventive floor care prevents deterioration of the floor so
that the need for costly and time-consuming corrective or
restorative care is reduced or eliminated.
The steps in preventive care ensure effective elimination of
soil and abrasive grit which is harmful to floor finish.
