Deep cleaning is a non sanding process. We use professional wood floor equipment, chemistry, and controlled agitation to remove embedded soil, residues, and some surface scuffing from the existing finish. Sanding and full refinishing remove the finish and some of the wood layer itself. Our service is designed to restore appearance and extend the life of the current finish without the dust, odor, and downtime of a full refinish.

Most properties schedule hardwood deep cleaning once a year, with high traffic entries, restaurants, and lobby areas cleaned semi annually or even quarterly when needed. Lower traffic corridors, lounges, or meeting spaces may remain on an annual schedule once a clean baseline is established and daily maintenance is consistent.

Deep cleaning can reduce the visibility of surface scuffs, marks, and built up residue, which often makes floors look newer right away. Deeper scratches, wear through the finish, and gouges in the wood itself may still be visible. In those cases, we can often improve the overall appearance and then recommend when a screen and recoat or full refinish would be the right next step.

We start by inspecting the floor, checking for loose boards, cupping, or coating issues. Then we use wood safe cleaning solutions and specialized equipment to break down soil and residues across the entire surface, including edges and corners. Finally, we neutralize and detail the floor so it is clean, even, and ready for regular maintenance or, if appropriate, a follow up protective application.

Our process is designed for finished hardwood floors, not raw wood. We use products compatible with commercial wood floor finishes and avoid saturating the floor with excess water. The goal is to remove contaminants that are dulling or hazing the finish, not strip it off. When we see any risk, we adjust chemistry and technique or recommend a different approach.

Most hardwood deep cleaning projects can be completed and ready for light foot traffic within the same day, depending on square footage, layout, and airflow. We work in sections and coordinate with your team so guests, residents, or staff have clear paths around active work zones and so key entrances and revenue areas stay as available as possible.

Yes. After the initial deep clean, we can set up periodic maintenance visits and provide simple guidelines for your housekeeping or janitorial team, including recommended products and tools. That way the floor stays cleaner between services, holds its appearance longer, and delays the need for more disruptive sanding or refinishing work.
