Stripping and sealing floors is an important part of floor maintenance that helps to keep floors looking their best while also extending their lifespan. Whether you have hardwood, vinyl, or any other type of flooring, regular stripping and sealing can help to protect it from scratches, stains, and other damage. In this blog post, we’ll take a closer look at the process of stripping and sealing floors and why it’s so important.
What is Stripping and Sealing?
Stripping and sealing is the process of removing the old layer of finish or wax from a floor and then applying a new layer of sealer or finish. The stripping process involves using a chemical solution that breaks down the existing finish or wax, making it easier to remove. Once the old finish has been removed, the floor is thoroughly cleaned and dried before a new layer of sealer or finish is applied.
Why is Stripping and Sealing Important?
Over time, floors can become worn and damaged, which can make them look dull and unappealing. Foot traffic, spills, and other everyday wear and tear can take their toll on a floor’s finish, causing it to become scratched, scuffed, and stained. Stripping and sealing helps to protect the floor from these types of damage, keeping it looking its best for years to come.
Regular stripping and sealing can also help to extend the life of the floor. By removing the old layer of finish and applying a new layer of sealer or finish, the floor is protected from further damage. This can help to prevent the need for costly repairs or replacement down the line.
