Maintenance cleaning can be very daunting for most commercial businesses. Recently, we had a client, coming from Gold Coast at Surfers Paradise, who installed brand new u beaut rubber flooring. Keeping this type of flooring clean can be quite tricky — and can be much more difficult to maintain in a commercial space. He had to hire general cleaners to come over weekly in order to preserve its look and extend its use.
Now, if you invested a lot of money on flooring that is “supposed” to be easy to maintain, and on one that shouldn’t have gotten damaged so easily, it would be quite upsetting to see it become milky and flaky.
Interestingly, however, after a thorough floor inspection by our highly qualified technician on the Gold Coast, it seemed as if the general cleaners, who were hired by the client each week applied straight acid cleaner on the floor. This lifted the flooring’s sealer, making it look disgustingly milky and flaky!
So, to start the restoration process, another one of our highly trained technicians, from All Aces Services, spent two very long nights just removing all the damaged sealer and then, reapplying 5 coats of sealer on the flooring.

I consider the experience kind of bitter sweet. The floor looked great in the end, and was back to its original condition. However, because of all the hard labour, it did not come cheap. To avoid the same thing from happening again, we advised the client to use our maintenance cleaning products in cleaning the floor. We also kept a maintenance schedule, just to make sure they enjoy their beautiful rubber flooring for as long as they can.
It is rather unfortunate that the client had to spend that much just to repair brand new flooring. Then again, the lesson here is that, it pays to do your research. Had the client known what to do, it would have saved him a lot of money.
