Commercial Epoxy Floor Installation & Maintenance Northern NJ

Epoxy flooring is the go-to surface finish for commercial and industrial applications, including warehouses, manufacturing plants, commercial kitchens and food processing facilities. Being that epoxy can be used in virtually any flooring application, it offers a safe and resilient surface that withstands anything thrown its way. It's particularly effective in the food service industry due to its seamless and easy-to-clean natural - meaning there are no joints or cracks in the flooring. When working with epoxy, proper application is essential for sustained durability and appearance - whether it's a concrete repair, top coat, or new renovation project. Preparation and proper technique are easily the most crucial factors for establishing adhesion of an epoxy coating. This is why expert epoxy flooring contractors like Rafanello Restoration are necessary to ensure proper installation and maintenance.

5 Ways to Keep Your Marble Floors Looking Brand New

Maintaining the stunning shine of marble flooring can be tough enough in a home. But when dealing with a commercial facility or office building, it’s even tougher. The amount of traffic, and potential for spills that takes place in buildings puts a strain on your floors and can result in long term damage if not attended to quickly and correctly.

Here are 5 expert tips for marble floor care that will help maintain its luster and shine throughout its lifespan:

1.) Get Routine Polishing from Pros: If your floors are new and well taken care of, this tip need not apply. However, the older your marble floors get, the more they require a professional floor polishing. NJ commercial flooring experts like Rafanello Restoration can make your old floors look brand new with a routine polishing. Bringing back that original shine is something your floors will thank you for.

2.) Use a Cloth, NOT a Mop: If you find spots or stains on your marble, it’s always best to use a soft cloth with a gentle cleaner to rub the stain away. Mopping the entire space can unnecessarily damage the polish and leave your marble looking uneven and dull. The same applies when using a harsh cleaning agent. The key is focusing on just the individual stain. Once that’s done, if you find an overall polishing is in order, we suggest you give the experts at Rafanello Restoration a call to examine your floors.

3.) Clean with Care – Do NOT SCRUB: If you really want to hurt your marble floors, scrub them hard. Most other flooring can withstand more aggressive treatment, but marble’s unique top layer shine can actually come off if scrubbed too hard. So be very careful when tending to your marble. Since marble is extremely smooth, you won’t find any liquids getting stuck in between crevices; therefore, there is nothing to “scrub out”. And remember, if the issue is large enough, and you’re unsure of how to treat it, it’s always safest to consult a professional service like Rafanello Restoration.

4.) Paint the Fence: Confused? If you’ve seen The Karate Kid you won’t be. Instead of “Wax on/Wax off”, with marble floors you must, “Paint the Fence”. This means that marble needs to be cleaned in gentle, straight lines. Unbeknownst to many, cleaning in a circular motion (hence, no “Wax on/Wax off”) will actually damage your marble. So when dealing with marble flooring, remember what Mr. Miyagi said, and “Paint the Fence.”

5.) Don’t Wait on Spills: In order to maintain marble’s natural luster, it’s extremely important to clean any spills right away. Certain liquids - especially those containing acids like orange juice, soda, wine, tomato juice and even tap water - can leave permanent stains when not attended to immediately. The quicker they are cleaned up, the less likely they are to damage your marble long term.

NJ Terrazzo Floor Restoration & Maintenance

As one of the most resilient floors found in commercial and industrial settings, terrazzo flooring may not require as frequent upkeep as other types of flooring. Generally speaking, all that's needed to maintain the beauty of terrazzo floors is regular cleaning with a damp or dry mop, or a mild detergent. However, when dealing with floors that are used to higher traffic - where discoloration or streaks cannot be fixed with a simple cleaning - a more potent method may be required. This is when it might be time to call a terrazzo contractor to have your floor looking brand new again. Rafanello Restoration is an expert in terrazzo floor maintenance no matter the damage or age - from brand new to over 100 years old!
