How to tell if your Karndean floors need cleaning or restoration
The manufacturers of Karndean advise weekly sweeping and dusting of the floor. Semi-regular professional deep cleaning will increase the floor’s lifespan for as long as possible. How frequently you should book professional cleaning for your Karndean floor depends on the amount of footfall it receives.
A busy commercial premises will naturally require professional cleaning more frequently than a home. There are a number of signs of wear to look out for when arranging a professional deep clean of your Karndean floor. TileMaster Biggleswade’s team can help diagnose and remedy the following common Karndean floor care problems:
- Has the floor become faded and lifeless?
- Has the sealant worn down and lost its shine?
- Have builders or tradesmen left the floor unclean?
