Over time, layers of wax buildup from store-bought cleaners and rejuvenators can leave hardwood floors looking dull, dark, sticky, and uneven.

Our safe and non-damaging process thoroughly cleans and removes old wax layers, leaving your floors looking fresh, clean, and polished once again.

Why Do Hardwood Floors Need Wax Removal?

Many homeowners unknowingly apply wax-based or oil-based products, believing they will protect their floors. However, over time, these products leave a heavy residue that attracts dirt, grime, and bacteria, causing floors to appear darker, sticky, and uneven.

Signs Your Floors Need Wax Removal

Cloudy, dull, or hazy appearance
Sticky or uneven texture
Floors look darker and attract dirt and grime.
Wax buildup creates streaks and patches after mopping.
Floors are more prone to scratches and stains.

If you’ve noticed these signs, it’s time to professionally remove the wax buildup and restore your hardwood floors to their natural beauty.

Our Professional Wax Removal Process

At T-Bowe’s Carpet Tile & Grout Restoration, we use a multi-step process to safely and effectively remove wax buildup without damaging your hardwood floors.

Step 1: Assessing the Level of Wax Buildup

We begin by identifying the extent of the wax buildup by testing a small area on your hardwood floors.

Step 2: Preparing the Floors with an Emulsifier

We apply a professional-grade emulsifier that softens the wax layers, making them easier to remove.

Step 3: Agitation Process to Break Down Wax Residue

Using advanced agitation tools, we loosen and force the wax buildup from the surface of the hardwood floors.

Step 4: Wax Extraction with Neutralizing Cleaner

We extract the softened wax using a pH-neutral cleaner, ensuring that all wax residue is fully removed while preserving the wood’s natural integrity.

Step 5: Buffing or Screen and Recoat for a Flawless Finish

  • For engineered hardwood floors, we buff the surface to restore its original texture.
  • For solid hardwood floors, we recommend a screen and recoat to restore the original shine and protective finish.

🔹 If your floors have had years of wax buildup, a screen and recoat is highly recommended after wax removal to restore the protective coating and give your floors a smooth, polished appearance.

Why DIY Wax Removal Can Damage Your Floors

Many homeowners attempt DIY wax removal, but using the wrong chemicals and techniques can damage hardwood floors, leading to costly repairs.

Common DIY Mistakes That Can Harm Your Floors

❌ Using harsh chemicals that strip away the wood’s natural finish
❌ Scrubbing with
abrasive tools that cause scratches
❌ Leaving behind
wax residue that attracts more dirt
❌ Over-wetting floors, which can
cause warping or damage

Our expert wax removal service ensures that your floors are safely restored without damage, leaving them looking fresh, clean, and natural.

Why Waxing Hardwood Floors Is Never a Good Idea

While some homeowners believe waxing will protect their hardwood floors, it actually causes long-term damage. Wax buildup chips, darkens, and stains floors over time, making them harder to clean and maintain.

At T-Bowe’s Carpet Tile & Grout Restoration, we completely remove wax buildup and apply a brand-new finish to restore your hardwood floors to their original condition.

How to Maintain Your Floors After Wax Removal

To keep your floors looking their best, we recommend avoiding wax-based cleaners and opting for pH-neutral wood floor cleaners.

Tips to Prevent Future Wax Buildup

✔ Use solvent-free, pH-neutral cleaning products.
✔ Avoid
reapplying wax unnecessarily.
✔ Sweep and mop regularly to
prevent dirt buildup.
✔ Schedule
periodic professional floor cleaning

Following these simple steps will keep your floors looking clean and polished for years to come!
