Why Professional Hardwood Floor Cleaning is Essential

Over time, even the most well-maintained hardwood floors accumulate dirt, grime, and allergens that regular cleaning methods can’t remove. Professional hardwood floor cleaning goes beyond surface-level care to restore the beauty and integrity of your floors.

Expert cleaning removes embedded debris from cracks and seams, preventing scratches and long-term damage. It also revitalizes the finish, bringing back the natural shine and enhancing the overall appearance of your floors. Additionally, professional cleaning helps maintain a healthy indoor environment by eliminating allergens and dust buildup, making it especially beneficial for homes with pets or children.

Investing in professional cleaning extends the lifespan of your hardwood flooring, delaying the need for refinishing or replacement. It’s an essential part of a comprehensive maintenance plan to protect your floors and keep them looking their best for years to come.

Experience the Kimminau Floors Deep Cleaning Difference

Step 1. Assessment & Pre-Cleaning Preparation

We begin by inspecting the hardwood floors to identify problem areas such as scratches, stains, or heavy buildup. Furniture is carefully moved, and the floor is prepped for cleaning by removing loose debris with a vacuum or dust mop.

Step 2. Deep Cleaning & Debris Removal

Using specialized wood-safe power scrubbing machine with IFT (intensive floor treatment) cleaning solution, we lift dirt, grime, and embedded particles from the surface and between floorboards. This step ensures a deep, thorough clean without harming the wood or finish.

Step 3. Final Review & Care Instructions

The final step includes a second cleaning pass using Kimminau Floors’ specialized cleaning solution to ensure a spotless finish. Our team will also provide you with a mop kit, pH-neutral cleaning solution, and detailed instructions for maintaining your floors properly moving forward.

Hardwood Floor Maintenance Tips Between Professional Cleanings

  • Dust Mop:  Use Kimminau Floors Maintenance Mop and Untreated Dust Pad on your floor regularly. This will keep the sand and grit off your floor that may cause premature wear.
  • Cleaning Mop: Wipe up food and spills immediately using a dampened (not soaking wet) Kimminau Floors Maintenance Mop with Cleaning Pad. Excessive use of water can damage wood. Regular cleaning should be done with Kimminau Floors cleaning solution. This specially formulated hardwood floor cleaner is designed specifically for your finished floor. Follow directions on the bottle for correct application.  Contact our office when you run low.
  • Place walk off mats in entry ways, sink areas, dog bowls, and plants to minimize the amount of dirt and water that comes into contact with your hardwood floor.  Nothing will break down your finish faster than dirt and water.
  • Use protective mats and pads: Place protective mats or pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches and dents. Use area rugs or runners in high-traffic areas to protect the finish.
  • Regular sweeping and vacuuming: Regularly sweep or vacuum your floors to remove dirt, dust, and debris that can scratch the finish. Be sure to use a soft-bristled brush or hardwood floor attachment to avoid scratching the finish.
