Restore Your Floors with Professional Hardwood Floor Wax Removal
Do your hardwood floors have a dull, yellowed appearance? Are they showing uneven, dark patches or proving difficult to maintain? Your floors may have been treated with wax—a once-popular finish that can create significant challenges for modern homeowners. Premier Performance offers specialized hardwood floor wax removal services to liberate your floors from outdated wax buildup and prepare them for contemporary, durable finishes.
The Wax Dilemma
Wax was commonly used to finish hardwood floors in older homes. While it provided a warm glow initially, wax finishes:
Require frequent reapplication and buffing
Yellow and darken with age
Trap dirt and debris in the finish
Cannot be spot-repaired effectively
Prevent proper adhesion of modern polyurethane finishes
Create maintenance headaches for homeowners
Many homeowners are unaware they have waxed floors until they try to refinish them and encounter problems. If your refinishing attempts have resulted in peeling, bubbling, or adhesion issues, wax buildup is often the culprit.
