How often should an office strip and wax VCT?

It depends on traffic, soil, and how well the finish is holding—not a fixed calendar alone. High-traffic corridors often need full strip & wax sooner than low-use rooms. We assess on site and quote specialty restorative work only—not daily custodial RFPs.

Can strip and wax be done after hours?

Often yes. Many workplaces schedule around occupancy so finish can dry properly. Share access windows when you request an estimate. Soft CTA: call (904) 437-3832 or email contact@duvalfloorcare.com.

Do you bid daily floor mopping contracts?

No. Duval Floor Care focuses on specialty restorative floor care—including VCT strip & wax—across equal North Florida markets. See our commercial and VCT pages for scope.

Strip & wax is restorative—not daily mopping

Vinyl composition tile (VCT) holds a finish that protects and shines. Over time, traffic, soil, and scrubbing wear that finish thin or cloudy. A full VCT strip & wax removes tired finish and rebuilds layers correctly. That is specialty commercial floor care—not a day-porter mop route or daily custodial RFP.

Signs your office may need a full strip

Finish looks yellowed, patchy, or permanently dull in walk paths
Black marks and soil embed even after routine scrubbing
Recoats no longer level or bond well on remaining finish
Edges and corners show bare tile while centers still look coated

If the floor only needs a refresh, a scrub and recoat may fit. We help you choose honestly after seeing the space—soft CTA: free estimate, contact, or call (904) 437-3832.

Timing around occupancy and dry time

Strip & wax needs clear access and enough time for finish to dry before foot traffic returns. Many offices schedule evenings, weekends, or phased zones. Share your access window, square footage, and whether after-hours work is possible when you reach out. Email [email protected] with photos if helpful.

How often is “often enough”?

There is no one calendar for every suite. High-traffic lobbies and corridors usually need full strip & wax sooner than quiet conference rooms. Soil tracked in from parking lots and weather also shortens finish life. Craftsmanship that lasts means matching the cycle to real wear—not selling work you do not need.
