What This Service Covers

We identify your surface and the existing coating before selecting a compatible stripping product and method. A test area establishes how the finish releases and whether the underlying material can tolerate the treatment. We protect adjacent areas, apply controlled dwell times, lift the softened coating and extract residue before rinsing as required. Ceramic and porcelain need glaze-safe methods; VCT requires controlled moisture and compatible finish removal. Natural stone needs chemistry that protects its mineral composition, and terrazzo treatment must suit its binder and aggregate. Once the surface is clean and dry, we refinish it with the agreed system: a compatible sealer, a new finish coat, burnishing or polishing where the material allows. Stripping removes an applied coating or buildup, not the underlying tile, stone or floor assembly.

Why It Matters

Layers of old finish and residue trap dirt, turn cloudy and leave an uneven appearance. Stripping clears that buildup and refinishing restores a uniform, protective surface, giving a sound floor a fresh starting point for planned maintenance.
