Flooring

Includes vinyl tile, sheet vinyl, laminated vinyl strips and tile, asphalt tile, linoleum, and in older buildings, vinyl asbestos tile.

Proper care of resilient flooring depends on which type of flooring is being cleaned. Due to the many different types of resilient floors, the manufacturer should be contacted for cleaning technique. Asbestos tiles require that EPA cleaning regulations are utilized. Floor machines and pads are utilized for various maintenance and restoration processes such as: stripping, scrubbing, polishing, and more.

Stone &
Masonry

One of the most expensive and durable floor coverings. Includes granite, marble, slate, flagstone, terrazzo, and concrete. Use of stone and masonry surfaces is growing rapidly in commercial businesses.

Care of stone and masonry floors depends on the surface being cleaned and the desired effect. Floor machines are utilized for various maintenance and restoration processes such as: stripping, scrubbing, polishing, and more. Brushes are more commonly used on stone due to the uneven nature of the surface.
