Timber Floor Cleaning & Maintenance Tauranga
Deep cleaning and maintenance of polyurethaned and oiled wood floors in Tauranga.
Abstract Floors uses state of the art deep cleaning machinery designed to loosen and extract all ingrained dirt and debris. It’s amazing how dirty your floor could be without realising it! Deep cleans are great for busy homes, retail spaces, venues, restaurant and bars and anyone thinking of selling a home. It also gives us a chance to assess the state of the floor and do any required maintenance before it becomes an issue.
Do you have an oiled timber floor that is looking a bit faded in places, or a bit dry and patchy? This is common with oiled floors as they need to be maintained in order to keep looking and performing their best. Give us a call today and we can give you a free flooring assessment.
We offer an industry leading re-coating system. In some situations a re-coat may be the best option. If the integrity of the existing flooring finish is still intact, a re-coat is possible. We can use this opportunity to raise or lower the sheen level, but cannot change the colour of the floor itself. If you are selling your home and want a budget and time friendly way of refreshing your floors for potential buyers - give us a call to discuss this option.
