Amtico Floor Cleaning Warwickshire
Amtico flooring is a stylish and hard-wearing option for both homes and commercial spaces, designed to endure heavy foot traffic while retaining its attractive appearance. However, even the highest-quality Amtico flooring can lose its shine over time due to dirt, scratches, and general wear. That’s where we can help!
Tile & Stone Medic’s Amtico floor cleaning service in Warwickshire employs specialist techniques to restore your flooring’s natural beauty, extend its lifespan, and keep it looking as stunning as the day it was fitted. Below, we outline our cleaning process, common issues we address, and the advantages of opting for a professional service.
Why Choose Professional Amtico Floor Cleaning?
Amtico flooring requires careful maintenance to preserve its finish and prevent unnecessary wear. Standard cleaning products can sometimes cause dullness, as harsh chemicals may degrade its protective layer. Our team is trained in Amtico-approved cleaning techniques, ensuring your floor receives the specialised care it needs without risk of damage. With our professional service, you can be confident that your floor will be expertly cleaned and revitalised.
Our Amtico Floor Cleaning Process
Inspection and Assessment: We begin with a thorough inspection of your Amtico floor, identifying any heavy staining, scratches, or areas of dullness. Understanding the floor’s condition allows us to choose the most effective and safest cleaning methods.
Pre-Cleaning Treatment: Before deep cleaning, we apply a pre-treatment solution to loosen surface dirt and grime. This step removes everyday residues and prepares the floor for a more intensive clean.
Machine Scrubbing and Agitation: Using Amtico-safe equipment, we scrub the flooring with soft-bristled machines that gently lift dirt without damaging the delicate finish. In high-traffic areas, we use more intensive techniques to tackle deeply embedded grime.
Rinsing and Extraction: Once scrubbing is complete, we rinse the floor with Amtico-approved solutions to remove any remaining residue. Our equipment extracts moisture efficiently, allowing the floor to dry quickly without streaks or watermarks.
Polishing and Finishing: To restore its natural shine, we apply a gentle polish specifically designed for Amtico flooring. This enhances the floor’s appearance while maintaining its protective surface, adding extra resilience against future wear.
Optional Re-sealing: For floors that have experienced significant wear, we offer a re-sealing service. This protective layer helps prevent future damage and keeps the floor looking its best for longer.
Common Issues with Amtico Floors
- Scratches and Scuffs: High-traffic areas are prone to scuffs and scratches, which can make the surface look dull. Our polishing process smooths out minor imperfections, restoring a uniform finish.
- Dirt and Grime Build-Up: Everyday cleaning may not remove deeply embedded dirt, which accumulates and dulls the floor over time. Our deep-cleaning methods lift grime to reveal the original lustre.
- Streaks and Dull Patches: Some standard cleaning products can leave streaks or a cloudy appearance. We use Amtico-specific products to ensure a streak-free, polished finish.
- Fading or Discolouration: Using the wrong cleaning agents can cause discolouration or fading. Our specialised products protect and preserve the floor’s natural colour and finish.
Why Professional Amtico Cleaning Is Better Than DIY

At Tile & Stone Medic Warwickshire, our trained technicians understand exactly how to care for Amtico flooring, ensuring a thorough and safe clean that protects your investment. DIY cleaning can be time-consuming, and using the wrong products may damage the surface, leading to costly repairs. By choosing our Amtico floor cleaning service in Warwickshire, you can rest assured that your floor is in expert hands, with safe, high-quality results.

FAQs
The process we carry out will depend on your specific floor and the use that it gets. There will be variations for different materials and the finish that you wish to achieve. The process will also be impacted by the full scale of work that we carry out, for example which types of cleaning and restoration are being performed. It is not unusual to apply several layers of sealant if this is necessary and appropriate.
Firstly, a floor should always be sealed when it is first laid. Get in touch with us straight away if this hasn’t been carried out already. It will also need periodic sealing in order to protect the floor on an ongoing basis. How often sealing is required depends on a number of factors such as the specific material used for your flooring and the kind of use it has to survive. For example, a bathroom with natural tiles that is frequently exposed to water may require sealing more often than porcelain tiles in a kitchen. Frequent maintenance, such as sweeping and hoovering up the dust and grit that erodes floors when trodden on can help. Once the sealant is worn away, not only will scratches be more likely, the risk of staining or permanent damage from liquids is drastically increased as there is no protective layer to prevent absorption. If in doubt get in touch with our team of friendly technicians who can discuss your needs.
We have a range of high quality Faber products which will help protect your floors from damage. As every type of floor is different and has myriad uses, we will consult with you to work out the best way to protect your investment. We can apply topical sealants which form a protective layer on top of the floor, or if needed an impregnating sealant, which will be partially absorbed into the stone or tiles. There are many variations of these sealants and as each floor type has unique characteristics and vulnerabilities we can work with you to find and apply the the best kind of protection.
Absolutely. If this was not carried out by those who fitted the floor get in touch immediately to ensure that the appropriate protection can be applied as promptly as possible. We would recommend that this is carried out once the flooring is in place as this means the grout, which is generally more porous, will also be protected.
We apply a sealer to a floor in order to protect it. Different types of floor, both manmade and natural stone, are vulnerable to different sorts of damage. They can all be harmed by chemicals to a certain degree, even by the acid in food and drink spillages, as they will be very slightly porous. As well as this, they can be worn away by physical damage. Even foot traffic can have a big impact if dust or grit has built up on the floor, since it increases abrasions. A sealant will reduce the chance of a spill becoming a stain by reducing the floor’s ability to absorb liquids. It can also help protect the appearance of the floor by forming a protective barrier. A sealant won’t prevent all damage and it will still wear away over time, but it will help your floors last longer, helping protect your investment. Sealants will even help protect your floor from UV radiation which can lead to fading over the lifespan of a high value stone or tiled floor. We can consult with you to find the best sealant for your floor and the type of use it gets to make sure it receives the best form of protection.
There are lots of different types of hard floors, and even more names. In almost all cases we can help you improve the appearance of your synthetic floor. Get in touch to find out what we would recommend for your specific needs.
Most of the time yes, it can be polished and restored to much improved state. Synthetic floors tend to be quite hard-wearing so will stand up to the kind of polishing that will cut through the dirt.
Whilst we may use specialist chemicals in the course of our work, we can assure you that by the time we leave all residues will be gone and your tile or stone flooring will be perfectly safe for everyone to use.
