Floor cleaning work in Ireland
Floor work is machine work, and the machine is the barrier to entry: a scrubber-dryer and the right pads pay for themselves across contracts. The skill is knowing which surface takes what, because stripping a floor that should have been burnished, or flooding timber, is damage you cannot undo by cleaning it again.
What comes up in this trade
- Vinyl and safety flooring stripped and resealed
- Tile and grout in commercial kitchens and bathrooms
- Polished concrete burnished in retail and warehouse units
- Repeat maintenance contracts once a floor is sealed
What the work needs
- Scrubber-dryer, pads, and the stripper and sealer to match
- Knowing which floors cannot be stripped or flooded
