Floors That Reflect Your Standards
Dull, scuffed floors silently communicate neglect. Gleaming, well-maintained floors project professionalism before a single word is spoken. We transform the former into the latter—and keep them that way.

The Hidden Cost of Neglected Floors
Your floors are the largest visible surface in your facility. They're also the most abused—absorbing foot traffic, wheeled equipment, spills, and daily wear that accumulates faster than most realize.
The compounding problem
Unlike dust that accumulates visibly, floor degradation happens gradually. The shine dims by imperceptible degrees. Scratches multiply beneath traffic patterns. Finish wears through in high-contact zones. By the time floors look obviously neglected, restoration costs have multiplied.
The replacement reality
Commercial flooring costs $3-12 per square foot installed. A 10,000 square foot facility faces $30,000-120,000 in replacement costs. Regular professional floor care extends floor life by 40-60%, delaying that capital expenditure by years.
The impression impact
Visitors form facility impressions within 7 seconds. Dull, scuffed floors suggest deferred maintenance throughout—even if everything else is immaculate.

Our Floor Care Process
Step 1: Assessment
We evaluate your floor type, current condition, traffic patterns, and finish layers. Not every floor needs stripping—sometimes restoration requires less invasive approaches.
Step 2: Preparation
Furniture moved or protected. Adjacent surfaces masked. Proper ventilation established. Safety signage placed.
Step 3: Stripping (When Required)
Commercial stripping solution applied, agitated with floor machine, and extracted with wet vacuum. Multiple passes until we reach clean substrate.
Step 4: Neutralization and Drying
pH neutralization ensures proper finish adhesion. Complete drying prevents finish failure.
Step 5: Finish Application
Multiple thin coats (typically 4-5) of commercial-grade floor finish applied with professional applicators. Each coat dried before subsequent application.
Step 6: Burnishing
High-speed burnishing (1,500-2,000 RPM) hardens finish and creates the deep, wet-look shine that distinguishes professional results.
Step 7: Curing
Minimum 24-hour cure time before heavy traffic. 72 hours for optimal hardness.

One-time restoration creates immediate impact. Ongoing maintenance preserves that investment.
