Is steam mopping better than regular mopping?

• <div><p>Steam mopping might be better than regular mopping if you don’t use the right cleaning products or properly rinse or wring out the mop head. However, if you use the right techniques, regular mopping also sanitizes effectively—even if it takes more effort. Plus, you know you can use a regular mop on any flooring—including to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-laminate-floors.htm">clean laminate floors</a> or hardwood, which don’t do well with steam cleaning.</p></div>

Q: How long does cleaning and polishing take?

• <div><p>Services typically take 2-4 hours, depending on the area size and floor material.</p></div>

Q: How do you maintain hardwood floors?

• <div><p>Keep your floors clean by sweeping or vacuuming them weekly to remove dirt and debris that can scratch the surface. Mats at entryways are also a good idea to catch excess dirt and moisture before it reaches the floors. Additionally, pads under furniture legs will help protect your floors from scratches. </p></div>

Q: Will a floor polisher remove scratches?

• <div><p>A floor polisher won&rsquo;t remove scratches from a wood floor, but the polish can fill in <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-fix-wood-floor-scratches.htm">surface scratches</a> and make them all but invisible. If you run your fingernail gently over the scratch and it doesn&rsquo;t catch, chances are that the polish will hide it. If it does catch, you might want to have your floors fully refinished, and you might need to have a professional floor sander in for particularly deep scratches. When in doubt, call a professional floor polisher to determine if polish will fill in your scratches or if you need more in-depth services.</p></div>

Q: Do vinegar and water strip wax?

• <div><p>Yes, vinegar and water can strip wax. For a DIY wax stripper, mix about a quarter cup of vinegar with one gallon of warm water. You can also mix one cup of cream of tartar, one cup of white vinegar, and one gallon of water. Before using it on a large area of the floor, you should test it in an inconspicuous place to make sure it works like you want it to.</p></div>

George did an inspection of a balcony we had added to our second floor master bedroom. I was very happy with his knowledge and service. He provided a report on the deficiencies and issues with this project and backed up his report with pictures of each deficiency. This was not a complete...

It turned out beautifully. Alan and I met before the wood was even delivered to scope the job and timing. Alan’s knowledge was invaluable in figuring how to do the treads because the stair nose molding from the manufacturer was not a close match, so my plan of using the acacia wouldn’t work....

Beautiful refinishing job. Got color just right, not too glossy so grain of wods shows itself off nicely. I appreciate Andrews' attention to detail, such as not only polishing aged brass feet on pedestal base but also adding teflon sliders to raise them up slightly so metal won't scratch floor.

The time scheduled for the appointment was for 9-11am. Roto Rooter called and said that they could not get a plumber to my house until 12-2pm. They arrived around 1:30pm. They assessed what I wanted to be done and quoted me a phenomenally crazy price of $950. I did need the leaky pipe fixed...
