Our hard floor cleaning team evaluates the floor type you have (wood, vinyl, stone, etc.), identifies problem areas. This includes a free survey and demonstration to customise the cleaning program.

Deep Cleaning & Degreasing –
Using industrial-grade solutions, our machines break down stubborn dirt, grease, debris and stains, ensuring a thorough cleanse. This step prevents scratches during deeper cleaning.

Polishing & Buffing –
For floors requiring a shine, professionals use buffing machines to enhance the finish and remove minor scuffs.
6.
Sealing & Protection –
A protective sealant or polish is applied to safeguard against future stains, scratches, and wear.
7.
Final Inspection –
The floor cleaning team ensures the floor meets hygiene and safety standards, leaving it clean, slip-resistant, and visually appealing.
We recommend periodic maintenance plans to keep commercial floors in top condition without requiring frequent deep cleans.
Vinyl & Sealed Floors:
Floors are scrubbed with special machines and cleaning solutions to remove dirt and old sealant. Then, a fresh sealant is applied to protect the surface.
Polished Floors (e.g., linoleum):
Old polish and dirt are stripped away using rotary machines and safe chemicals. After cleaning, a new polish layer is applied to keep floors shiny and protected.
Tiled Floors:
Tiles and grout lines are scrubbed using high-pressure cleaning and industrial solutions to remove grease and stains. Grout may be sealed afterward to prevent future dirt build-up.
Wooden Floors:
Low-moisture cleaning techniques and gentle products are used to avoid damage. Buffing machines restore the floor’s shine without harming the wood.
Natural Stone Floors:
Special stone-safe cleaners and machines remove dirt and stains while preserving the stone’s natural look.

Frequently asked Questions about Hard Floor Cleaning
A list of our most asked questions about hard floor cleaning, if your question isn't answered here feel free to reach out!
How often should commercial hard floors be professionally cleaned?
The frequency of professional hard floor cleaning depends on the type of business, foot traffic, and flooring material. Here’s a general guideline for commercial spaces in the UK:
- Daily: Light cleaning, including sweeping and damp mopping, is essential for high-traffic areas like pubs, restaurants, and retail stores to maintain hygiene and appearance.
- Weekly: Deeper cleaning with machine scrubbing and degreasing helps prevent grime buildup, especially in hospitality and food service environments.
- Monthly: Buffing and polishing restore shine and remove minor scuffs, ensuring floors remain presentable.
- Every 3–6 months: A full deep clean, including stripping, resealing, and protective treatments, is recommended for durability and slip resistance.
For businesses with heavy foot traffic or safety flooring, periodic deep cleaning may be required more frequently to maintain compliance and aesthetics.
What is the best method for cleaning different types of hard floors (vinyl, tile, wood, stone)?
Different hard floor types require specific cleaning methods to maintain their durability and appearance. Here’s a breakdown of the best approaches for each:
- Vinyl Flooring – Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt. Use a damp mop with a vinyl-safe cleaner to prevent residue buildup. Avoid excessive water, as it can weaken adhesive bonds.
- Tile Flooring – Clean with a pH-neutral tile cleaner and a microfiber mop. For grout, use a baking soda and water paste or a specialised grout cleaner to remove stains.
- Wood Flooring – Dust daily and mop with a wood-safe cleaner using a barely damp mop. Avoid excessive moisture, as it can warp the wood. Periodic buffing helps maintain shine.
- Stone Flooring – Use a stone-specific cleaner to prevent damage. Avoid acidic solutions like vinegar, which can erode natural stone. Seal the surface periodically to protect against stains.
Can commercial hard floors be stripped and resealed without damage?
Yes, commercial hard floors can be stripped and resealed without damage—if done correctly. The key is using the right stripping chemicals, ensuring proper dilution, and following best practices to avoid common mistakes.
Some important factors to consider:
- Floor Type Matters – Certain materials, like linoleum and granite, are sensitive to standard stripping chemicals and require specialised solutions.
- Proper Dilution – Using too much stripping chemical can bleach or damage floors, while too little may make the process ineffective.
- Dwell Time – The stripping solution needs time to break down the old finish, but must not dry on the floor, as this can cause permanent damage.
- Sealing Correctly – Applying the right sealant ensures protection against future stains and wear, but improper application can lead to uneven finishes.
How do professional cleaning services minimise disruption during commercial floor cleaning?
Professional cleaning services use several strategies to minimise disruption during commercial floor cleaning, ensuring businesses can operate smoothly while maintaining pristine floors. Here’s how we do it:
- Flexible Scheduling – Cleaning teams often work outside business hours, including evenings or weekends, to avoid interfering with daily operations.
- Sectional Cleaning – Instead of shutting down an entire space, professionals clean floors in phases, allowing businesses to continue functioning.
- Fast-Drying Techniques – Using low-moisture methods and quick-drying solutions ensures floors are ready for use within hours, reducing downtime.
- Advanced Equipment – High-efficiency machines, such as auto-scrubbers and steam cleaners, speed up the process while delivering deep cleaning results.
- Clear Communication – Cleaning teams coordinate with business owners to plan the best approach, ensuring minimal disruption to staff and customers.
