Floor Stripping & Waxing

Frequently asked questions
How often should commercial floors be stripped and rewaxed?
Most commercial VCT floors need a full strip-and-recoat once or twice per year, supplemented by monthly buffing and weekly spray-buffing to maintain gloss between major services.
How long must we stay off the floor after waxing?
Light foot traffic is possible after 30–45 minutes per coat; full cure and readiness for heavy traffic occurs within 2 hours after the final burnish.
Can you work overnight so we don't close our store?
Ranger Janitorial performs all strip-and-wax work after close to have your floors gleaming before you open the next morning.
