Commercial Floor and Concrete Cleaning
Commercial floors and concrete surfaces are some of the hardest working areas within business premises. They gather dirt, oil, tyre marks, algae and general wear. Professional cleaning restores these surfaces, improves safety and enhances the appearance of the site.
This guide explains how building and facade washing works, the methods used by professionals, and how businesses benefit from regular exterior cleaning. It also covers the safest way to clean brickwork, render, cladding, metal panels and glass facades without causing damage.
What Is Commercial Floor and Concrete Cleaning?
This service focuses on deep cleaning of concrete, industrial floors, car parks, pathways and loading bays. It uses power washing, scrubber dryers, chemical treatments and specialist floor cleaning equipment.
Types of Floors Suitable for Cleaning
- Warehouse concrete floors
- Factory floors
- Painted and epoxy floors
- Resin coated floors
- Car parks and multi storeys
- Pavements and walkways

Each surface requires a specific cleaning approach.
Rotary and Scrubber Dryer Cleaning
Rotary machines and scrubber dryers are essential for deep cleaning commercial floors. They remove ingrained dirt, tyre marks and chemical build up.
Concrete Cleaning Methods
Different techniques are used depending on the contamination:
- Hot water power washing
- Degreasers for oil
- Algae removal solutions
- Rotary surface cleaners
- High flow rate systems for large areas
Why Concrete Becomes Stained
Concrete is porous and absorbs:
- Oil and lubricants
- Tyre rubber
- Dirt and pollution
- Algae
- Traffic film
- Warehouse dust
Professional cleaning restores the original appearance and prevents long term damage.
