why it matters
Why Strip and Wax a Commercial Floor?
Commercial floors are exposed to continuous traffic. Dirt, footwear, equipment and everyday use can gradually affect the protective finish and overall appearance of the surface.
When a floor becomes dull or visibly worn, routine mopping may remove loose dirt without addressing the old finish underneath. Stripping and waxing provides a more complete floor-care solution.
The stripping process removes the worn finish so the surface can be prepared for a new application. Waxing then creates a refreshed finish, and polishing helps improve the final appearance.
Restore a cleaner appearance
Improve floor shine
Address dull or worn finishes
Refresh high-traffic areas
Reduce the visual impact of accumulated wear
Protect the floor surface from everyday use
Support a longer useful life for the flooring
Make ongoing floor maintenance easier
Improve the overall presentation of a commercial property
Create a more consistent appearance throughout the space
Les Entreprises Deshaies adapts the stripping, waxing and polishing process to the flooring involved rather than applying exactly the same treatment to every surface.
Our expertise
Floor Care Adapted to the Surface and Level of Wear
Effective floor stripping and waxing requires more than simply applying a new product over an existing finish. The condition of the surface, the existing layers and the type of flooring must be considered before the work begins.
Les Entreprises Deshaies performs floor-care work with an approach adapted to the condition and characteristics of the surface.
Floor Stripping
Stripping removes the worn finish and prepares the floor for the next stage of treatment. This step is particularly important when older layers have become dull, marked or uneven.
Surface Preparation
Once the old finish has been removed, the surface must be properly prepared before new wax is applied. Careful preparation contributes to a more consistent result.
Wax Application
The waxing stage adds a renewed finish to the floor. The treatment is selected according to the type of surface and the maintenance requirements of the space.
Polishing
Polishing helps improve the final appearance of the treated floor and can restore the shine expected in commercial environments.
our process
Our Floor Stripping and Waxing Process
1
Assessing the Floor
The first step is to consider the type of flooring, its current condition and the level of wear visible on the surface.
2
Preparing the Work Area
The area is prepared so the floor-care work can be completed according to the required process.
3
Stripping the Existing Finish
The worn floor finish is removed to expose and prepare the surface underneath. This stage helps eliminate old layers that have lost their appearance.
4
Preparing the Surface
The floor is prepared for the new finish so that the waxing stage can be completed on a properly treated surface.
5
Applying the Wax
Wax is applied according to the type of flooring and the requirements of the project.
6
Polishing the Floor
The treated floor is polished to help improve its appearance and restore a cleaner, brighter finish..
7
Maintaining the Floor Over Time
Depending on traffic and use, additional periodic maintenance may help preserve the appearance of the floor and reduce the effects of ongoing wear.
Comparison
Regular Floor Cleaning vs. Stripping and Waxing
Regular floor cleaning and stripping and waxing serve different purposes.
1. Regular Floor Cleaning
Routine cleaning focuses primarily on removing everyday dirt, dust and debris from the surface.
Everyday maintenance
Surface cleanliness
Prevents buildup
Best when the floor finish is still in good condition.
2. Floor Stripping and Waxing
Stripping and waxing goes further by addressing the existing finish itself.
Removes worn finish
Prepares the surface
Applies new finish
Restores appearance
Best when the floor is dull, worn, scratched or discoloured.
Using Both as Part of a Maintenance Plan
A business can benefit from regular floor cleaning for daily or recurring maintenance and periodic stripping and waxing when the finish requires restoration.
The right combination depends on the floor, traffic level and condition of the surface.
