Is it worth paying for professional floor cleaning?

• <div><p>Cleaning floors is a relatively easy DIY job, but paying for a professional cleaning service is worthwhile if you don’t have the time to dedicate to cleaning or if you have particularly dirty floors, deep-set stains, or wooden floors that you might damage during the cleaning process. A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-expect-house-cleaning-service.htm">professional house cleaner</a> will have the tools and experience necessary to remove dirt, pet hair, debris, and even stains and discoloration from your floors without damaging them. The service is also relatively affordable, making it a great investment if you don’t have the time or tools to do it yourself.</p></div>

Q: What cleaners should not be used for vinyl floors?

• <div><p>You can embrace minimalism when it comes to cleaning vinyl plank flooring. Water or diluted vinegar both work great for mopping and are much better options than some other cleaners that can damage the protective coating on these floors. Ammonia or solvent-based polishes can both break down the top layer. Also, avoid &ldquo;mop-and-shine&rdquo; cleaners, which tend to leave behind residue on vinyl plank floors.</p></div>

Q: Can I buff my floors myself?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-buff-hardwood-floor.htm">buff your floors yourself</a> if you have plenty of time, patience, and know-how. This intermediate-level DIY project requires either buying or renting a floor buffer and purchasing a buffing solution. This process can be time-consuming and, if not done correctly, can leave burn-like marks on your floor. </p><p>To ensure this job is done correctly without damaging your floors, consider hiring a professional floor buffer and polisher instead. You might save money on labor costs by DIYing this project, but you could spend more on repairs if not done correctly. </p></div>

Q: How long does it take to strip and wax floors?

• <div><p>The answer to this question depends on how large the room is and how much experience you have stripping and waxing floors. It will take at least 24 hours to strip the floors, then you must allow time for drying, waxing, waiting for them to cure, and, finally, buffing them. Since you likely will not be working for the full 24 hours, it is safe to say that this is a two- or three-day job.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain polished floors?

• <div><p>Sweep daily, use appropriate cleaners, and avoid abrasive tools to maintain the shine.</p></div>

They did a great job. They cut two trees. One tree was right next to the carpor, They even saved my wife's bridal wreath bush that was right next to tree. They cleaned up the yard each day before they left.. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
