There can be no house without floors.
These floors are subjected to varied people and equipment travelling on it.
Referred to as ‘traffic’, these are responsible for adding, dust, spills and
various other conditions on the floor. Depending on the flooring type, they
need to be cleaned and maintained accordingly. Floor burnishers, scrubbers,
buffers and floor polishers are some great aides to clean and transform and any
flooring Newcastle surface. Below we
throw light on the various types of flooring surfaces on which these flooring
machines can be ideally used:-
Vinyl or PVC
floors
Vinyl and PVC are pretty resistant
flooring along with being waterproof and heard wearing which makes it very easy
to clean them through the traditional methods and techniques. However, it poses
various challenges with regards to persistent stain and other challenging materials
which are not easy to wipe off like gum. Cleaning of such challenges can be
made easy with right types of tools like floor polishers and buffers. They can
easily remove such unwanted stuff and stains from Vinyl and PVC floors without
causing any damage to them or leaving scratch marks on them. The floor pads
extensions to the floor polishers are highly recommended for such floors.
Linoleum
floors
If
washed, Linoleum floor tends to discolor and fade quickly as its color gets
washed out. Thus, the best way to keep it in spic and span and shiny is to
polish it using a floor polisher. These keep the color locked to retain the
floor’s vibrant look lasting much longer. The floor pads extension are ideal
for this type of flooring.
Wood floors
Such floors can occasionally be
cleaned by the traditional way of mopping but ideally, should be polished due
to its various advantages over mopping. One being advantage is that of wood not
swelling. Mopping requires water and if too much water is used on the wood
floor, it would absorb water and swell and is not a welcome addition as it
means a change of flooring. Polishing eliminates this problem. Unlike the water
wash, polishing adds a protective layer to the wood which further provides an
extra protective layer between the wood and further spills and dirt buildup. It
also reduces the long term maintenance cost of the floor along with extending
its longevity. Polishing also adds a shine to the wood flooring which mopping
does not. This tends to stay for a long time and adds a positive impression on
anybody looking or walking on the flooring.
