"Cesar does great work. He is reliable, kind and responsive. He replaced my kitchen cabinet doors, he installed my new bathroom: including vanity, medicine cabinet, light fixture, tile flooring, and toilet. All came out perfect. He replaced old closet doors with new bi-fold doors, and he helped with many other details I needed. I will definitely be using him again, I am very happy with everything!"

"I highly recommend Powers Construction Company. They worked within my financial budget and helped me pick out my gorgeous floors. Jonathan and Serge removed 1,240 square ft of carpet throughout my condo. They made sure it was disposed properly here in Marlboro, NJ. They worked in a timely matter, extremely clean workers and very pleasant personality. I highly recommend them and will definitely hire them in the near future for my next project. Thank you again for working within my budget and getting job done without a mess."

"Had GGPro renovate our bathroom, replace some doors, trim out the area. New tub, full tile including floor. Outstanding job, fantastic guys, hard work mixed with a few laffs. Of note, we're a one bathroom house, and GG Pros made sure we didn't have to get a hotel for the week... removing & reinstalling the commode after each day's work. Thanks, gents! You're the best."

Floor Cleaning and Waxing FAQs, answered by experts

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 “mop-and-shine” cleaners, which tend to leave behind residue on vinyl plank floors.

If you’re cleaning or repairing laminate floors, avoid anything abrasive like heavy-grit sandpaper or steel wool. Because the image layer is protected by a topcoat, the image layer is more vulnerable to scratches and damage if the topcoat is damaged. And if the image layer is scratched, it can reveal the wood fiber core.

While every professional home cleaner will have their own preference, most will use a commercial floor cleaner specifically manufactured for laminate floors. They will also use a vacuum or microfiber cloth to remove loose grit before breaking out the mop. Some cleaners will also make a final pass with a dry and clean cloth to dry your laminate floors for a smooth shine.

Common options include hardwood, tile, and vinyl floors. Professionals tailor methods to the specific material.

Steam mops can be a better option than traditional mops because the steam can lift stubborn dirt from floors without using chemicals, and it also kills bacteria and dust mites. However, steam mops have drawbacks: they are more expensive, require an electrical outlet, and are not suitable for all flooring types, such as laminate or hardwood, which can be damaged by the steam.

Regular mopping can also sanitize floors effectively when done with the right cleaning products and techniques, though it may require more effort. The main advantage of a traditional mop is its versatility, as it can be used on any type of flooring. Ultimately, the best choice depends on your floor type, budget, and cleaning preferences.
