including solid wood, engineered wood, and laminate. We utilize state-of-the-art tools, including our high-speed double cylindrical brushing auto scrubber. This sophisticated equipment, paired with our patented wood cleaner, provides a thorough cleaning that gently scrubs, cleans, and extracts all dirt and contamination from your flooring. The result is a floor that is not only spotless but also dry and shiny.

The Importance of Professional Hardwood Floor Cleaning

While regular sweeping and mopping are essential for maintaining the cleanliness of your hardwood floors, these methods alone are insufficient to keep them in pristine condition. Daily cleaning routines help reduce micro-scratches and address minor spills. Still, they cannot prevent the accumulation of fine sand and cleaning solutions that penetrate the grains and cavities of the wood. Over time, these contaminants can cause wear and tear, leading to premature damage and loss of luster.

This is where professional deep cleaning becomes crucial. At Wiz Team, Inc., our Hardwood Floor Cleaning process involves thoroughly examining and deep cleaning beyond surface-level maintenance. Our techniques are designed to address ingrained dirt and contaminants, restoring the health and appearance of your wood floors. The benefits of professional residential cleaning services like ours are essential for preserving the beauty of your flooring and ensuring its longevity.

Wiz Team’s Comprehensive Hardwood Floor Cleaning Process

Initial Examination and Identification

Before we begin cleaning, our skilled technicians perform a detailed examination of your flooring materials. We identify the type of wood—solid, engineered, or laminate—and assess any pre-existing conditions that need attention. This step helps us determine the most suitable cleaning method for your specific floor type. We also test a small area to gauge the floor’s response and evaluate the level of soil buildup.

Preparation and Pre-Vacuuming

To ensure a thorough cleaning, we start by protecting walking areas and moving as much furniture as possible. Our pre-vacuuming process involves using a HEPA vacuum equipped with soft brushes to remove all dry soil and dust from the surface. This step prepares the floor for the main cleaning process and ensures no debris interferes with our deep cleaning techniques.

Deep Cleaning and Pre-Cleaning

For hard-to-reach areas, we use a specialized wood cleaner and soft white pads to wipe away soil manually. Our high-speed auto scrubber, with its soft brushes and squeegees, is employed for the open areas. This equipment applies a cleaning solution, gently scrubs the surface, and extracts deeply embedded dirt from your hardwood floor. The result is a comprehensive clean that tackles contaminants from every crevice.

Rinsing and Drying

After the deep cleaning, we perform a soft clean rinse using microfiber pads. This step removes all residues, leaving the floor with a clean and shiny finish. To expedite the drying process, we use drying fans that dry the surface within minutes, making your floor ready for immediate use.

Application of Cleaning Solution

Our high-speed double cylindrical brushing auto scrubber, equipped with a patented wood cleaner, is used to apply the cleaning solution to open areas. This advanced equipment gently scrubs the surface, allowing the solution to penetrate and lift embedded dirt and contaminants from the wood.

Scrubbing and Extraction

The auto scrubber’s cylindrical brushes work in tandem with the cleaning solution to scrub and extract dirt from the floor. This process is thorough, targeting deeply ingrained soil and ensuring that contaminants are effectively removed from the wood’s surface and pores.

Soft Clean Rinse

After the deep cleaning, we perform a soft clean rinse using microfiber pads. This step ensures that all residues from the cleaning solution are removed, leaving the floor with a clean and shiny finish. The microfiber pads are gentle on the wood, providing a high-quality clean without causing damage.

Drying with Fans

To expedite the drying process, we install drying fans that circulate air across the surface of the floor. This helps to quickly dry the wood, making it ready for use in a short amount of time. Proper drying is essential to avoid any potential water damage and ensure a spotless finish.

Final Touches

Once the floor is dry, we carefully place any moved furniture back into position. This step is done with great care to avoid any scuffs or scratches on the newly cleaned surface. We also check for any final touch-ups that may be needed to achieve the best possible results.

Final Walk-Through and Inspection

Once the cleaning is complete, we carefully place any furniture back in its original position. Our technicians perform a final walk-through to ensure you are delighted with the results. We take pride in our meticulous attention to detail and aim to exceed your expectations with our hardwood floor cleaning service.

Topical coating can only be applied in homes with no furniture (vacant homes or emptied areas that are not going to be used) after cleaning and when the floor is dry. We also can perform floor buffing using a lubrication gel in combination with our high-speed buffing units to enhance the floor’s finish hardness and appearance. For any of the above treatments, floors will first need to be prequalified and a deep cleaning would be required before the application of any topical coating or buffing.
