Floor maintenance is more than just sweeping and mopping. Regular stripping and then re-waxing is needed also.
Regular mopping of the floor is necessary to keep the floor clean. This helps keep the amount of dust down and prevents from tracking it elsewhere.
Wax Build Up
Wax build up is not good for the floor no matter what type it is. When there is too much wax, the floor can seem to be scratched. It can actually just be the wax that is scratched. This is a definite sign that you need to strip the floors and apply a new coat of wax on the surface.
Floors should be stripped and waxed about every six months. Then again this depends on how much foot traffic you have. If you don’t get much foot traffic you could probably extend that to maybe a year.
Leave It to a Pro
Of course you can try it yourself with over the counter materials and chemicals. But you will never be able to do the job like a true professional. Professional machinery is not for the everyday consumer. It requires knowledge of the machine to avoid injury. Professionals also have the knowhow and the proper detergents to completely strip all of the wax off.
Applying the wax is a fairly tedious process if you are not well trained. Not properly using the correct machine could possibly damage the floor beyond repair. This is another reason to leave it to a pro.
