Stripping and Waxing: The Secret to Long-lasting, Shiny Floors

August 6, 2024

Your floors are often the first thing visitors notice when stepping into your commercial or residential building. Ensuring they are spotless and gleaming with a fresh shine can dramatically enhance the overall aesthetics of your property. This is where the process of stripping and waxing comes into play. A service offered by Alfa & Omega Building Maintenance, stripping and waxing can transform your dull, scratched-up floors into shiny, smooth surfaces that impress.


What is Stripping and Waxing?


Stripping and waxing is an intensive cleaning procedure that involves the removal of the old wax layer from the floor and applying a fresh coat. This rejuvenating procedure eradicates accumulated dirt, grime, and scuff marks, in order to restore the original shine of the floor.



Why is Stripping and Waxing Important?


Not only does this process enhance the appearance of your floors but also provides it durability. By stripping off the old wax, you remove the layers where dirt and grime get ingrained over time. The new layer of wax protects the flooring material from scratches, stains, and water damage. Regular stripping and waxing can prolong the lifespan of your floors and save you from frequent costly repairs.


How is the Process Completed?


At Alfa & Omega Building Maintenance we follow a thorough and professional approach to stripping and waxing:


1. Stripping

We start by applying a stripping solution to the floor, which penetrates the worn wax coat, loosening the tough dirt, and grime. The old wax is then stripped off using specialized machines and tools.


2. Cleaning

After the old wax has been stripped away, the floor is thoroughly cleaned to remove any remaining dirt or grime.


3. Waxing

Finally, we apply multiple layers of high-quality wax to provide a glossy, protective finish to the floor.
