Waiting until it's too late
Wax that's worn through lets dirt into the tile itself. Regular burnishing and recoating cost less than restoring a ruined floor.
Strip, wax, scrub & carpet
Commercial Floor Care in Hamilton, ON
Strip and wax, burnishing, concrete scrubbing and carpet extraction for Hamilton businesses, booked once or on a regular rotation.
Floors That Hold Up to Hamilton Traffic
Floors take more punishment here than most people think. Salt and slush come in on every boot from November to April, plant and warehouse grit gets carried into offices, and restaurants on busy streets like Locke and James see hundreds of people a day. Nightly mopping and vacuuming keep a floor presentable, but they don't restore it. That takes periodic floor care: stripping and refinishing, burnishing, deep scrubbing and carpet extraction.
A floor technician handles this work, usually overnight or on weekends so the floor has time to dry and cure before people walk on it. We can do a single job, like a strip and wax before a reopening, or set up a rotation that keeps floors in shape all year. Give us a call on 289 803 4495 to have a technician look at the floors.
Where Floor Care Gets Put Off
Salt left to sit
Salt residue dulls finishes and stains concrete and carpet. Winter needs extra entrance work, not just more mopping.
Wrong product, wrong pad
Each floor type needs different chemicals and pads. Getting it wrong can strip a finish you meant to keep.
Not enough drying time
Rushed jobs leave soft, tacky wax that scuffs quickly. We schedule so the floor can cure properly.
What Floor Care Covers
- Vinyl composition tile (VCT)
- Full strip and refinish with fresh coats of finish, plus scrub-and-recoat between full strips.
- Burnishing
- A high-speed pass over waxed floors that restores the gloss until the next recoat.
- Sealed and polished concrete
- Auto-scrubbing for warehouses, plants and showrooms; reseal on request.
- Carpet and carpet tile
- Hot-water extraction, spot treatment and traffic-lane cleaning for offices and clinics.
- Ceramic tile and grout
- Machine scrubbing of tile and grout in washrooms, kitchens and entrances.
- Entrance matting
- Deep cleaning of walk-off mats, which are the first defence against salt and grit.
Which Floor, Which Treatment
- VCT in offices, schools and clinics: scrub and recoat a few times a year, full strip and refinish about once a year, burnish in between.
- Concrete in warehouses and plants: regular auto-scrubbing, with heavier scrubbing after winter.
- Carpet in offices: nightly vacuuming plus extraction once or twice a year, more often in entrance lanes.
- Tile in washrooms and kitchens: deep scrub of tile and grout on a regular rotation.
- Restaurant floors: degreasing scrub of kitchen floors, with dining floors on their own schedule.
These are common starting points. We set your rotation after seeing the floors and how much traffic they get.
Floor Care Prices
Floor care is priced per job or as part of a rotation, after we've seen the floors. The price depends on the floor type and condition, the area, how much furniture has to move, and how much drying time the job needs.
Price note: We don't publish standard floor-care rates; the condition of the floor changes the job too much. You'll get a written price after we've looked at it.

Floor Care Questions
How long do we stay off a freshly waxed floor?
Usually a few hours for light foot traffic and longer before furniture goes back. The technician will tell you on the day, based on the finish used and the temperature.
Can you do floors overnight or on a weekend?
Yes. Most floor work is done when the building is closed, so the finish can cure without traffic.
Do you clean carpet tiles?
Yes. Carpet tiles are extracted the same way as broadloom, and badly stained tiles can be flagged for you to replace.
