Excellent Restaurant Floor Restoration in London

We at Floor Sanding Professionals have helped many restaurants restore and refresh the look of their overused flooring. But there are some tips you should keep in mind, to keep it beautiful for a longer time. The maintenance of a wooden floor is quite a difficult task at your home, let alone in a restaurant. So, we have collected some useful information that may help you with the maintenance as well as keeping the perfect results from the sanding process.

Information for keeping your flooring beautiful and well-maintained

Clean the floor daily, or if this is not possible, as often as you can. Of course, we understand that for a restaurant, this could be quite a difficult task, because of the many people entering it. You should try to sweep it twice or three times a day because the shoes of the clients can leave dust and garbage that can scratch the surface of your flooring and harm the finish, which is put after the sanding procedure. You should sweep with a soft broom, and also the accessories of the vacuum cleaner have to be made from soft material. Try to clean the surface every time there is a crowd in the restaurant, as lunchtime.

Check what kind of finish is applied to your flooring, because the whole maintenance afterwards will depend on this. As moisture and spills are more likely to occur in restaurants, more often polyurethane finish is applied. There are other possibilities too, as lacquer, oils, etc. You can try a simple test that will help you define this – press your finger on the floor and slide it across it – if you can not touch the grain of the wood, then it is a polyurethane finish. Try to avoid the moisture, as far as possible. Be careful not to use a too-damp mop, and use the right cleaning product.

Select the cleaning detergents, that are suitable for your restaurant’s wooden flooring. There are special detergents, which are suitable exactly for a restaurant – with a neutral PH. You have to avoid detergents that are alkaline or acidic, to protect the finish. We could also recommend some good detergents, that you should use after we have finished with the sanding.

One good way to protect the flooring from dirt and garbage, and respectively from scratches, is to use mats at the entrance of your restaurant. Put them also in front of the toilet and the restaurant’s warehouse. This will be very useful if it is used on rainy days when the water on the shoes can cause some great damage.

A good idea is to use safety mats on the legs of your chairs. Also check often if they are at their place, for example, once a week, and if any of them is missing, replace it instantly. And if you require some additional information about the flooring in your restaurant, call 020 70360622.
