Hardwood Floor Cleaning

Hardwood floors are usually manufactured from solid woods like oak and walnut, but can also be made from a variety of other woods and synthetics. The floors offer a soft and uniform aesthetic and can make a beautiful addition to any room. Despite the warm and pleasing nature of these floors, they cannot be truly cleaned without the adequate tools, cleaning agents and polishes because of cracks and spaces in the wood which catch debris. Professional hardwood cleaning services possess the skills to deep clean hardwood floors, ridding them of trapped dirt and bacteria.

​Hardwood Floors

Hardwood floors can add an elegant and natural touch to any building but are impossible to truly keep clean without the proper equipment. Sweeping and mopping a hardwood floor just moves dirt into the cracks and crevices in the wood. Through time this dirt becomes packed increasingly tighter, making it more and more difficult to remove. Sweeping and mopping are essential to keeping the surfaces of the floors clean, but floors can only be deep cleaned using the right tools. A professional hardwood floor cleaning service will use various machines that can penetrate the cracks in the wooden floors and extract the dirt debris and allergens caught inside.

​Steam Cleaning

Professional hardwood floor cleaners use proprietary equipment that injects hot pressurized steam into the cracks and crevices in wooden floors to break up the allergens, soil and debris that become trapped in these spaces through foot traffic, sweeping and mopping. Once broken up, the dust and dirt particles become easier to remove with a high powered vacuum. Steam cleaning is one of the most effective methods that can be used to thoroughly clean and sanitize hardwood floors because the steam can penetrate the spaces that trap soil and bacteria, allowing for a much more effective cleaning.

Stain Removal

​Hardwood floors may begin to look a bit dull or stained no matter what is used to clean them or how often they are cleaned. The floor may be stained from a spilled juice or coffee, or an unfortunate accident from a beloved pet. These stains can often be removed with the use of steam cleaning machines and detergents by using the steam and cleaning agents to disintegrate the particles stains, making them easier to remove using a vacuum. A lackluster and stained hardwood floor can be revitalized by a professional hardwood floor cleaner using the proper techniques and equipment.

​Hardwood Floor Maintenance

Routine professional steam cleanings are an integral part of hardwood floor maintenance but, in between cleanings, other steps must be taken to preserve the beauty and integrity of hardwood floors. The floors must be washed and polished often to ensure that the surfaces stay clean and are protected from scratches. Professional hardwood floor cleaners provide these services using the best products for hardwood floors of any style or material including solid wood, engineered wood and laminate flooring. Hardwood floors can be a large investment but will last for many years with the proper care.
