Wood Floor Cleaning Option #2

Good Morning!  We are half way through the week, and closer to the weekend!  On Monday I wrote about the difference between a wood floor installation company and a wood floor cleaning company.  I also went over the details of what an Intensive Cleaning consists of for wood floors.  You can read Monday's blog to be refreshed by clicking on the following link:  http://wichitawoodfloorcleaning.blogspot.com/2012/04/wood-floor-cleaning-option-1.html

As promised, today we will go over the second option provided by wood floor cleaning companies.  This option is called the Clean and Refinish option.  With most wood floor cleaning companies they only offer these first two options.  Wichita Wood Floor Cleaning however provides all options available, but we will go into the last option on Friday!

The Clean and Refinish option is a combination of the Intensive Cleaning and an application of a hardwood floor refinisher.  So the machine is used to clean the floor twice again.  Once with the intensive cleaner, and then again with the Squeaky cleaner as I had mentioned in Monday's blog.  This process then adds an extra step.  A refinisher is then applied to the floors with a microfiber cleaning pad.

The analogy I use to explain the refinisher to customers, is simply that it's like putting lotion on your dry skin.  If your floors are starting to lose their shine and luster, the Clean and Refinish option is perfect for you!  Below is a picture of a floor where the customer picked this option.  They had taken great care of their floors, but wanted the "shine" back that they had been missing. 

The picture on the top is the "before".  As you can see, the floors were taken care of wonderfully and still looked great.  But when compared to the "After", there is definitely a noticeable difference in "shine".  This option was perfect for what the customer wanted for his floors.  The Clean and Refinish option also slightly fills any small grooves or valleys that might be in the floors.  It won't completely get rid of scratches, but it will make them look a little better.


Friday we will go over the last option which is the Tykote Dust-Free Recoating System.  Until then if you have questions, or would like to set up a free on-site assessment of your floors, please don't hesitate to give us a call at 316.747.4066.  Thanks for everyone's support with this new concept in the wood floor industry!
