Innovative Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services

Marmoleum floors are one of the most popular types of floors in Ireland but are also one of the most neglected and poorly maintained. Many public buildings have these floors installed but often nobody explains what the maintenance routine is and how to care for it. Most people treat marmoleum floors just like the classic old lino floors and that usually starts the process of causing permanent damage. 

For those seeking effective maintenance, we offer Innovative Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services to ensure your floors remain in top condition.

Marmoleum Floor Definition

Marmoleum floors are a type of natural resilient flooring widely used in homes, schools, hospitals, offices, shops and other high traffic environments. Marmoleum is a modern form of linoleum manufactured primarily from renewable and naturally derived materials. Unlike vinyl flooring, which is mainly produced from synthetic PVC, Marmoleum is based on linseed oil, obtained from flax seeds. This is combined with wood flour, pine rosin, limestone and natural pigments to create the flooring material. The mixture is pressed onto a strong jute backing, producing a durable and flexible floor covering.

Marmoleum is available in sheets, tiles and click flooring in a large selection of colours and designs. The surface is naturally hard wearing, comfortable underfoot and relatively easy to maintain when cleaned correctly. Because of its natural composition and long service life, Marmoleum is particularly popular with customers looking for a practical and more environmentally responsible alternative to conventional synthetic flooring.

Our innovative approach to Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services sets us apart in the industry.

How Do You Protect Your Marmoleum Floors

Discover Our Innovative Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services

With our Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services, you can extend the longevity of your floors and maintain their aesthetic appeal.

Like all types of commercial floors, the marmoleum floors are very durable and very easy to maintain. But there are some products that can instantly cause permanent damage if it ends up on a new marmoleum floor. Floor Cleaning Dublin recommends polishing it from the first day to prevent such issues. While the marmoleum floor is already sealed, the type of sealer that is on it will not last long if 30 children are using the same classroom floor for 200 days per year. Scratches will appear, spills will happen, chemical burns are very likely and so on.

Polishing 

After the marmoleum floor is fitted, the entire surface should be deep cleaned and then sealed with a few coats of water based floor polish. The coating of floor polish will act as a barrier between the floor itself and the traffic. Basically, all the damage and all the scratches will happen on the top polish layer and not on the floor itself. That layer of polish can be then removed every few years and a fresh one re-applied. There are hundreds of types of floor polishes out there, but for commercial floors, we recommend the use of high traffic anti-slip sealers.

Utilizing our Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services ensures the best care for your flooring investment.

Regular use of our Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services can drastically reduce the need for extensive repairs.

Cleaning

All marmoleum floors found in any high traffic area are likely to get dirty. Daily floor cleaning is highly recommended. If the cleaning happens daily, then the floor does not get a chance to get very dirty so a proper marmoleum floor maintainer with a neutral PH will work incredibly well.

The only dirt that cannot be removed by a low PH floor cleaner is the old residue that has built up over the top layer and has created a compact layer of dirt or has trapped dirt between the layers of maintainers. We recommend the use of a flat mopping system to avoid soaking the floor. From time to time, a more active marmoleum floor cleaner might be needed to deep clean the floors. But these deep cleaners are not for daily cleaning. 

Burnishing 

The polished top layer that takes all the traffic and all the spills, is likely to get scratched and damaged. That is not a major issue. A quick clean and a buffing or burnishing of the surface with a red pad, a tan pad or a white floor pad will resolve that problem. The friction between the floor and the pad will generate high heat and the scratches will be melted and leveled up. All polished and unpolished marmoleum floors should be buffed regularly.

Our specialized Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services are perfect for maintaining high traffic areas.

By washing the floors with a residue maintainer, the tiny scratches and all the imperfections will be filled up and repaired. Then within the burnishing operation, the entire floor will be fully restored. It is pretty much the same as using a filler to repair scratches on a wall. Fill up then sand up. 

Utilizing our Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services can help prevent costly repairs in the future.

How To Avoid Damaging Your Marmoleum Floors 

Most marmoleum floors only get damaged because of poor care, human error and poor knowledge. In other words, the wrong products are being used to care for it and instead of caring for it, it damages the floor. In some cases for good.

Alkaline Floor Cleaners

After a marmoleum floor gets very dirty and it starts looking patchy and feels sticky, a lot of people are looking for a good floor cleaner. A good floor cleaner will definitely remove the dirt but it will also crack the glazing of the floor or it will create high porosity. Never use alkaline floor cleaners on marmoleum floors if you are not trained or experienced.

Acidic Floor Cleaners

A highly acidic floor cleaner will break down dirt incredibly fast but it will also break down your floors. The marmoleum floors are not natural stone floors or concrete floors. A drop of acid is enough to melt the floor. Stay well away from any type of full acid or acid based floor cleaners to avoid severely damaging your floors.

Scrubbing Pads

Choosing our Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services will help in maintaining a clean and healthy environment.

Our Marmoleum Floor Cleaning Services not only clean but also protect your floors from future damage.

The black scrubbing pads and the green scrubbing pads are not polishing pads. These pads are only for stripping pre-existing finishes and intense deep cleaning projects that require the use of aggressive pads and heavy buffers. Other than that, use the blue pad for scrubbing and the red pad for regular burnishing or polishing. Also, the surface has to be deep cleaned before burnishing.

The citric acid and fizzy drinks are serious marmoleum floor killers. These products are highly active and break down the glazing of the floor over a relatively short period of time. All spills should be removed as quickly as possible before the surface absorbs it. The citric acid left on a marmoleum floor for a prolonged period of time will damage the entire surface and will cause discoloration to the top layer.
