Karndean Floor Cleaning Service Lancashire

At Tile & Stone Medic Lancashire we provide a professional floor cleaning service for all types of manmade and natural flooring. Among the most popular synthetic floor choices is Karndean, a hardwearing and attractive substitute for natural stone or wood. Our Karndean floor cleaning service is the ultimate solution for homes and businesses wishing to keep their Karndean in tip top condition.

Common issues

Whilst Karndean is undoubtedly tough, in order to maintain its sheen and keep it clear of marks it will need occasional servicing. Look out for some of these common issues. If you notice any then consider giving one of our team a call to see how we can help.

It’s impossible to completely prevent dust and dirt around the home, even with regular sweeping. Unfortunately dust particles can eventually scratch Karndean floor if they become trapped underfoot or under the legs of furniture, particularly where furniture has been dragged across the floor. Certain types of shoe sole can leave dark marks too so look out for these.

Karndean will resist stains from most types of spillage, but solvents and wine can leave behind dark marks and damage the surface. The worse other spillages will do is leave behind white spots on the surface of the planks. Bathrooms can be particularly troublesome for this.

Never allow a steam cleaner to be used on your Karndean floor as these can permanently damage the surface. Be careful with vacuum cleaners too since some models can leave behind scratches and marks. If you are at all unsure then reach out to one of the team at Tile & Stone Medic Lancashire for some friendly advice.

Our process

To clean Karndean floor we must first get rid of all dust and debris. If any is left behind it will stop us getting the best results from our clean. Once the floor is clear we can set about removing black scuff marks, white spots and furniture scratches from the Karndean. Specialist solutions are used and gentle worked into the affected areas to get rid of these pesky imperfections.

Once the floor is ready, we apply a specially PH balanced solution to deep clean the Karndean. The solution is diluted to the right consistency then thoroughly applied to the whole floor. Once the floor has dried it’s ready to use, just ensure it isn’t washed again for at least 24 hours.

Where Karndean has experienced more serious wear and has lost its sheen, we provide a strip and refresh treatment to return it to its best. After the floor has been washed, we apply a stripping solution and allow it to dwell on the Karndean for a short time. A carefully match refresher is then worked into the floor and the result is the restoration of the wonderful sheen that Karndean offers. The chemicals are hand picked to work in harmony to achieve this and are perfectly safe for use in the home. We would recommend this service around one a year for the best results.
