Signs Your Floors Need Stripping and Waxing
Floor finish breaks down gradually, and many facilities wait too long before refinishing.
Dull or Patchy Appearance
When traffic areas lose their shine and surrounding areas remain glossy, the finish has worn unevenly.
Yellowing or Discoloration
Old finish layers can yellow or trap dirt over time, making floors look dingy even immediately after cleaning.
Scuffs and Scratches That Will Not Clean Up
When marks sit in the finish rather than on it, stripping and refinishing is the solution.
Excessive Finish Buildup
Repeated coats without stripping can build up along edges and corners, creating an uneven, discolored look.
