Hardwood floors add classic elegance to your home after waxing, as it prolongs the lifespan and restores their gleam. This floor finishing technique uses a thin layer of clear or colored wax that is applied to a hardwood floor and then buffed to a shine.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”none”]

Why wax hardwood floors?

Waxing is a floor finishing technique in which clear or colored wax, made of a blend of solvents and synthetic and/or natural waxes like beeswax or carnauba, is applied to a hardwood floor in a thin layer and then buffed to a shine. As the solvents in the wax evaporate, the wax hardens into a protective seal that confers a host of benefits, Floor waxing became popular in the 1940s.

Why you should hire a waxing and buffing service?

While protecting your floors from the need for repairs is a significant benefit of hiring a floor buffing and waxing company, there are other benefits, too.

When your flooring is properly maintained and polished, your floors will look great and shine bright. In addition, when you arrange for regular professional hardwood floor cleaning or buffing and waxing for your VCT, tile, vinyl, linoleum, epoxy, or acrylic flooring, it will make your day to day cleaning faster and more effective.

Commercial buildings require extensive maintenance routines – and for good reason too! The presentation of your business offices and shops has to be perfect; otherwise, it will leave a negative impression on your potential clients.

A well maintained commercial space helps you impress your clients and customers, which raises the chance of getting more business and sales. To achieve this perfect presentation, a great deal of focus should be dedicated to the floors of your commercial space.

Benefits Waxing hardwood floors

Increases stain resistance: The wax seal limits the absorption of spills to keep floors from staining.

Minimizes minor imperfections: Wax fades or eliminates the appearance of superficial scratches, dings, and scuffs marks.

Preserves underlying finishes: Wax acts as the first line of defense against spills, dust, and dirt, preventing them from encroaching on underlying finishes, such as oil, and enabling the underlying finish to last longer.

Prolongs floor life: The increased hardiness of waxed floors allows them to potentially last years longer than un-waxed floors if regularly maintained.

Boosts beauty: Clear wax lends a shiny look and a glossier feel that vacuuming or mopping alone can’t achieve. Colored waxes, available in hues on the brown spectrum, offer these same benefits plus an attractive tint that gives floors an even richer, deeper patina.

Recommendations before waxing your hardwood floor:

Waxing is also only suitable for hardwood floors in good structural condition; that is, with no significant chipping, gouging, discoloration, warping, or bulging. If your hardwood is plagued with these problems, replace or repair affected floorboards (e.g., sand away discoloration or fill gouges with wood filler) before waxing hardwood floors.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1523097991859{margin-top: 80px !important;margin-bottom: 80px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Our Flooring Repairs and Replacement Services Include: [/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_raw_html]JTNDc3BhbiUyMGNsYXNzJTNEJTIydmNfaWNvbl9lbGVtZW50LWljb24lMjBmYSUyMGZhLWFycm93LXJpZ2h0JTIyJTNFJTNDJTJGc3BhbiUzRSUwQVNhbmRpbmclM0MlMkZiciUzRSUwQSUzQ3NwYW4lMjBjbGFzcyUzRCUyMnZjX2ljb25fZWxlbWVudC1pY29uJTIwZmElMjBmYS1hcnJvdy1yaWdodCUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRnNwYW4lM0UlMEFSZXNlYWxpbmclMjBhbmQlMjBSZS1zdGFpbmluZyUzQyUyRmJyJTNFJTBBJTBBJTBBJTBBJTBBJTBB[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equalizer=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1523097659348{margin-bottom: 0px !important;padding-top: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;background-color: #eeeeee !important;}” el_id=”any-question”][vc_column width=”1/2″][wd_icon_text icon=”fa-arrow-circle-right” title=”An Uneven Floor Level” text=”This is a bit trickier to check.
