Floor cleaning services

The floor cleaning service is one of the most requested. It is understandable: regular correct cleaning of the floor surface will extend the lifespan of the floors.

During office cleaning or house cleaning the floor cleaning can be separated in two categories: dry and wet cleaning. Commercial floor cleaning services frequently include buffing of the surface of the floorto make it stain resistant.

With time dust inevitably accumulates, increases in thickness and becomes noticeable. Floor presentation becomes disturbed and quality of the floor decreases. To prevent these changes the floor needs to be dry –cleaned daily. It is easier to complete floor dusting daily than to spend time and effort on removing of old untidy spots.

Our protocol for floor cleaning service includes dry cleaning before floor washing. Floor washing requires mops with cotton heads as they pick up dirt more efficiently while containing water (leaving floors sparkling clean).

Due to rainy fall and spring seasons hardwood floor cleaning services include special application of protective substances to increase lifetime of the wood and to maintain the appearance of new floor. It is recommended to use doormats at the entrances to collect dirt and moisture off your shoes. Area rugs are recommended at the place of high traffic areas (in front of the sinks). Rugs must be made of natural material to prevent moisture entrapment.

The hardwood floor cleaning services mustinclude waxing twice a year to prolong the lifetime of your floors. They must be wiped with dump mop and never washed with water. All dirt must be removed immediately and the floor must be cleaned with appropriate floor cleaner. It is essential to choose a correct washing substance to avoid floor damage.

Marble or other natural stone floors also require protection and must be cleaned as often as regular flooring.  Floor cleaning services of the stone floor include vacuuming or dusting at first, then wiped with a damp clean mop. They could be washed with soapy water or stone cleaners after that.

Commercial floor cleaning service includes drying the floors with towels after finishing all cleaning work. The results of floor cleaning services depend on correct choice of protective cleaning substances. Take in consideration that poor choice of these substances may damage the floor or reduce it’s attractiveness.

Hardwood floor cleaning

Our workers have good experience with the variety of floor surfaces and are able to use only the cleaning mix that is harmless for your floors. Using our services you will keep your floors as good as new.

We know how to take care of the natural stone.

In order to keep stone floor shiny and spotless it is necessary to prepare it correctly for cleaning.

Smooth surface needs to be cleaned with special soap for the stone floors. This way the surface will be guarded from dirt and the stone will maintain rich color.

There are additives that give natural color of the stone more depth. In addition, they prevent oil saturation and reduce formation of dirt spots. However this type of cleaning should be done only once a year.

Natural stone (all except granite) should never be washed with acid solution due to possibility of a non-reversible chemical reaction that can leave stains on the surfaces.

Initial cleaning of marble, sand stone, ceramic tile:

  • Remove dust and dry dirt with use of a vacuum or broom
  • Wash floor once or twice using mop or floor washing equipment. Use neutralizing solution of liquid soap and water. Floor scrubber or floor buffer should have cloth brushes or white attachment on.
  • Wash floor with neutralizing solution once more.
  • Pick up the leftover of the soap solution with washing vacuum.
  • If the floor washing vacuum was used instead of a floor bufferuse a damp mop to erase line left after the vacuum. Usually the washing vacuum with clean water flow function does not leave lines.
  • After drying the floor (except ceramic tile) usually needs to be buffed to cover the pores of the stone and protect it from destruction.
  • You can prolong the shine of your floors by adding green soap to the water when cleaning.

Initial cleaning of granite and slate

  • Remove dust and dry dirt with use of a vacuum or broom
  • Apply large amounts of cleaning solution
  • Use buffer with red attachment to clean the floor.
  • Pick up the leftover of the soap solution with washing vacuum.
  • If the floor washing vacuum was used instead of a floor buffer use a damp mop to erase line left after the vacuum. Usually the washing vacuum with clean water flow function does not leave lines.

Daily cleaning of hardwood floor

Daily cleaning of hardwood floor (as suggested by our professional wood floor cleaning service):

  • Dust and dirt are cleaned with dry mop, broom or vacuum
  • Light oil spots are cleaned with a damp mop and a spray of cleaning solution.  For large areas use floor washing machine with white attachment.
  • Heavily oily dirt is removed by wet mop or floor washing machine with red attachment.

Cleaning solutions:

For the smooth surfaces use cleaning and protecting solutions. They have cleaning effect and leave only a small amount of solution on the floors.

To avoid overuse of wax on the floors alternate with gentle base cleaning solutions. After floor is dry you can use buffer with white attachment to smooth out the surface of your floor and to make them easier to clean in the future.

Semi-hardwood floors cleaning

Initial cleaning of vinyl floors:

  • Remove dirt using dry mop, broom, or a vacuum sweeper. It is better not to use mops with silicone or plastic heads as they can damage the surface, aid in the crumbling of the surface ( especially if the floor was covered stain resistant solution.

Light oil dirt should be removed with the damp mop and a cleaning spray. To clean large areas use floor washing machine with white or red attachment.

Heavily oiled dirt we remove using wet mop or floor washing machine with red or white attachment.

The time between cleaning cycles can be increased with use of stain-resistant spray. It will give the floor extra shine and reduce amount of scratches from the shoes or animals.

Cleaning solutions: For cleaning of the buffed surfaces choose cleaning and surface-protecting solutions, such as liquid oil or liquid wax. These types of cleaning solutions have cleaning effect as well as leave the least amount of residue on the surface. To avoid overuse of these solutions you may alternate with gentle base cleaning solutions.

Acidic and strong base solutions are not allowed on vinyl floors as the can permanently damage the surface.

Taking care of laminate floors:

These types of floor require the least effort. It can be cleaned with brush, broom, mop or the vacuum to collect the dust.  Use damp m

op to remove heavy stains and dirt. Never use wet mop or the mop with long fibers as it leaves lines on the floor.

The laminate floor has poor tolerance for water same as hardwood floors. Therefore follow these wood floor cleaning services rules when taking care of laminate floors.

Glue or paint stains can be removed with oil-based stain remover, and then washed with floor cleaning solution. The laminate floors d not require special stain-resistant application to protect its surface. The wax or floor guard should not be applied as these may damage laminate floors.
