How often should I get my epoxy floor professionally cleaned?
- The saying ‘the more, the better’ fits here. You most likely do not need your entire floor detailed weekly, however, once a month is best, especially for high traffic facilities with constant foot or vehicle traffic. If not once a month, AT LEAST once every few months to maintain the life of your floor. If you notice a ‘fog’ on your Epoxy floor, it is most likely time for a professional floor service.
How long do Epoxy floors last?
- If proper maintenance is followed, they usually last between 10 and 20 years. A maintenance program is essential to the longevity of the flooring.
In a high volume / traffic location, it is suggested to professionally scrub & wash your epoxy floors once per month. This will maintain the beauty and life of the epoxy. On an annual basis, a full professional floor service is recommended. We have many clients on a maintenance program with proven results.
