Do you want to restore your vinyl floor...
To remove years of dirt and enjoy a smarter, more attractive looking property?
To boost the value of your home without installing new flooring?
To get better wear from your existing floor with easy maintenance tricks?
Whatever reason you have to clean your vinyl floors, you’re in the right place.
If you have vinyl flooring, it requires regular cleaning to ensure it stays in peak condition. The best way to ensure this is to use professional vinyl floor cleaning services.
Among some of the vinyl cleaning services we offer are vinyl strip and seal treatments and high-speed buffing and burnishing.
Refinishing involves removing the old wax by thoroughly scrubbing your floor with carefully chosen equipment and supplies. Once this is done effectively, we protect your floor with several layers of commercial-grade wax coats which helps prolong the shine and glossy look of your vinyl for hassle-free maintenance. Finally, we can finish it off with professional buffing to enhance the shine.
From Warragul to Drouin and beyond you can expect reliable and professional service with results guaranteed.

What are the best ways to clean vinyl floors?
When you are cleaning vinyl floors, you need to be careful about the amount of water you use. Too much water can get into the seams of laminate or vinyl flooring and start to weaken the adhesive. This can cause vinyl flooring to begin peeling.
Laminate flooring can also expand when subject to water, causing warping and distortions. To keep your vinyl flooring in great condition, we give your vinyl flooring a thorough sweeping, a light mop, and can also buff and burnish your floor so that it shines.
Walkers Floor Care Cleaning Tips
Does your vinyl floor have a wix finish? Non-wax vinyl has a polyurethane coating to make it shine. However, wax based cleaners won’t adhere to this coating properly, which will leave your floors looking dirty.
Wipe up spills immediately. Liquids, including water, can seep through the seams of your vinyl flooring and result in the adhesive losing grip.
Never use a stiff brush or steel wool to remove dried stains. Instead use a soft nylon brush.
Avoid using acidic, alkaline or abrasive cleaning solutions on your vinyl floor. These products may damage the poly/wax coating that seals your floor. Oil based soaps may also cause unsightly marks and can be tough to remove.
Buffing machines should not be used on vinyl surfaces. Low impact professional services are cheaper and result in a better finish.

What should I consider when cleaning a vinyl floor?
When you need to clean your vinyl floor, there are a number of things to consider. The first is the type of vinyl floor you have as this will determine the kinds of cleaning products and tools you can use. You also need to check that if you’re going to hoover it, your vacuum is on the right setting and not missing any wheels.
How do I get the shine back on vinyl floor?
If you want to restore shine to your vinyl flooring, the best way to do this is with a little elbow grease. That means hiring out a buffing machine and using vinyl or linoleum wax to ensure your tiles come up sparkling and glossy. You can follow it with burnishing for a super noticeable shine.
It’s also possible to do it the old-fashioned way with some everyday household items such as a baby oil, water and vinegar solution which you can rub into the marks. Once clean you can buff it with a dry microfiber cloth.
Be careful as excess water can damage your vinyl floor. If your attempts don’t work, you might need to remove the original wax seal first and reapply. Whatever steps you take to restore shine to your vinyl floor, make sure it’s intended for your specific floor type and that you test it in a concealed area first.
A clean environment doesn’t just have a positive impact on the well-being of your family, clients and guests, it will also ensure your peace of mind. Our professional cleaning services can guarantee you a superior level of cleanliness at all times.
How do I prevent vinyl floor damage?
The best way to keep your floor in good nick is to keep up its maintenance schedule. That means sweeping and mopping to remove dirt before it turns to stains. But to get the best out of your floor, you need to make sure it is properly sealed to prevent water damage, tears and scuffs to the vinyl. If the damage has already been done, then don’t worry, simply call a our professional vinyl floor restoration team to strip and reseal your entire floor.
