VCT stands for Vinyl Composite Tile. When VCT flooring gets extremely dirty, mopping alone will not clean it entirely. This is because the old wax that is coating the VCT seals in dirt and debris, needing to be stripped off. The process of stripping and waxing (taking off the old wax and applying new wax) needs to be done by a professional.
Our floor stripping and waxing company helps when floors become dull from wear and tear. A scrub and new wax coat will restore superior shine you once had. Buffing the floors in your facility gives them a glossy or “wet” look. The process of buffing renews many types of hard floors to ensure their best quality and brightest shine for your floor surface! If you need floor strip and wax call Complete Detail at 937-507-2927.
A common question is how often should VCT stripping & waxing service be performed? For most floors, every 12-18 months is sufficient depending on your flooring. The amount of traffic, spills, and other factors will play into this. Do not perform VCT cleaning more than once every 6 months, and no less than once every 36 months.
VCT flooring is usually found in commercial buildings like schools and hospitals due to its heavy duty and long lasting nature. While VCT can be an excellent choice in flooring, there are some care instructions that shouldn’t be overlooked. Let’s go over just a few of those:
Maintaining VCT flooring begins before the flooring is completely installed. Before installation, it is imperative to have a smooth and clean surface. Debris, dust or residue severely affects the vinyl adhesive. Additionally, temperature during installment can also have drastic effects on the flooring adhesive. Keep in mind to not have the temperature too hot or too cold, as this could rip or rupture the adhesives.
After initial installation, take care so as not to not dislocate the recently glued flooring. Avoid setting overly heavy objects on, or walking across, the newly installed floor. Avoid spilling things that can leave marks on the new floor.
VCT tiles need regular VCT stripping, VCT waxing and VCT buffing. This requires a professional with the experience and equipment to do the job the right way. Complete Detail has a team of professionals that specialize in VCT floor maintenance and commercial floor care.
When a company charges for a VCT stripping and waxing, the cost is usually determined by square footage. Nationally, prices average between 30 to 60 cents per square foot. However, some companies will give a discount on the price if you have over a certain amount of square feet. We are available at 937-507-2927.
