Commercial Floor Stripping and Waxing Services
Maintaining polished, professional-looking floors is essential for any commercial facility. Over time, heavy foot traffic, spills, and daily wear can dull floors and make your space look unkempt. SkyLine Cleaning Enterprise provides professional floor strip and wax services that restore your floors’ shine and add a protective layer to prevent future wear and damage. We serve offices, schools, medical facilities, and commercial properties across Cook and Lake County.
The Importance of Floor Waxing
Without regular maintenance, floors accumulate dirt and lose their shine – creating a less professional and inviting environment. Our floor strip and wax services remove old wax layers along with deeply embedded dirt and grime, preparing the surface for a fresh, smooth coat. This process improves appearance, extends the lifespan of your floors, and reduces the need for costly premature replacements.
Our Strip and Wax Services
SkyLine Cleaning Enterprise provides comprehensive floor strip and wax services for commercial facilities of all sizes across Arlington Heights and the Chicago suburbs.
Floors that look dull again a few weeks after waxing
A shine that fades fast usually means new wax went on top of old, dirty finish. Our floor stripping and waxing starts by removing the old wax layers completely, so the fresh finish bonds to a clean floor. Then we apply new wax and, between full cycles, buff the floors as part of your regular plan. That rhythm keeps vinyl tile in offices, schools and clinics looking polished for months instead of weeks, and our supervisors check the result during their regular inspections.
Floor work that does not shut down your business
A full strip and wax means rooms are closed while the floor is stripped, waxed and dried. We plan that work around your operating hours and split it into sections when the whole floor cannot close at once. Schools often schedule it during breaks, and offices outside business hours. Our crews bring their own equipment and supplies, so you do not need to provide machines, products or storage space. You get one floor waxing service schedule that fits the way your facility runs.
Safe, compliant floors in schools and medical facilities
Compliance is the main reason clients choose SkyLine, and floors are part of it. Dirt trapped under worn wax is hard to keep sanitary, and a poorly applied finish can make hallways slippery. We apply wax with the right technique for slip resistance and keep high-traffic corridors, classrooms and exam room floors on a regular care schedule. Since 2007 we have taken care of commercial floors across Cook County and Lake County, alongside our daily janitorial service.
Floor Stripping and Floor Waxing
Our team begins by removing existing wax layers to prepare the floor for a fresh application. Using professional-grade tools and materials, we apply a new coat of wax - giving your floors a glossy, resilient finish that stands up to daily traffic and wear.
Buffing and Polishing
To maintain their appearance between full strip and wax treatments, we provide regular floor buffing and polishing services. These treatments restore shine and minimize signs of wear, keeping your floors looking their best year-round.
Commercial Floor Coatings
In addition to floor waxing, we offer protective floor sealants that add an extra layer of durability. This coating guards against scuff marks, spills, and heavy use - ensuring a lasting shine for your commercial floors.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have my floors stripped and waxed?
It depends on the amount of foot traffic your floors receive. Typically, we recommend a full strip and wax treatment every 6 to 12 months for high-traffic areas, while buffing and polishing can be done in between to maintain the shine.
Will waxing make my floors slippery?
When done properly, waxing does not make floors slippery. Our team ensures the right application techniques for a safe, non-slippery finish that provides both shine and protection.
How long does the wax coating last?
A well-applied wax coating can last anywhere from 3 to 6 months, depending on foot traffic and maintenance. Regular buffing can extend its lifespan and keep your floors looking shiny and protected.
Can floor waxing be part of our regular janitorial service?
Yes. Many clients combine daily janitorial service with floor care in one plan. We schedule full stripping and waxing at the right interval for your foot traffic and buff the floors between those visits, so your floors stay protected without a separate vendor.
What kinds of floors do you strip and wax?
Our floor stripping and waxing service is built for vinyl composition tile, or VCT, the floor most often found in offices, schools, clinics and break rooms. For wood floors, our hardwood floor refinishing service is the better fit. If you are not sure what your floor is, we check it during the free estimate.
