Floor Restoration Maintenance

Vinyl Sheet Flooring and Vinyl Composite Tiles (VCT) are the most popular types of flooring, both in the commercial and domestic sectors, due to their comparatively low cost and high durability.

Modern vinyl sheet and thermoplastic tiles can be printed in any colour and with a variety of patterns to mimic the appearance of wood or stone. Vinyl is highly resistant to abrasion, making it ideal for high traffic areas, such as supermarkets, where the extensive use of rotary cleaning machines, scrubber dryers and high-speed burnishing machines is needed to clean, strip and polish.

The surfaces vary from smooth and easily maintainable to coarse safety floors with anti-slip properties for use in wet environments. Key players in vinyl floor manufacture include Altro Safety Flooring, Karndean, Armstrong, Gerflor, Amtico and Polyflor

Why do you need floor polish?

Whilst vinyl floor coverings are resilient underfoot, they become scratched and damaged and will wear out prematurely without protection. Adding layers of topical floor dressings such as high-quality floor polish can dramatically enhance the appearance of your floor and extend its working life. The floor polish becomes a sacrificial layer, which can be maintained.

How do we restore your floor?

To remove old, worn and soiled coatings beyond maintenance, we use a chemical stripping solution and floor stripping pads. The floor is then thoroughly rinsed to remove left-over residues, and fresh new coats are applied to give your floor new life and make it easy to clean.

Periodic Maintenance

Once your floor has been deep cleaned and restored with a polish treatment, a periodic floor maintenance programme will keep the look of your floor at the desired level and the surface protection remains intact so the wear on your floor is reduced to a minimum.
