Depending on the type of business you have, how many people have a tendency to use the facility, and other factors, wear and tear on floors may be a serious concern. Here are three signs that it may very well be time to consider working on a budget to get a new commercial floor installed.
Sign #1: Tiles are becoming damaged more frequently now. You may have installed a ceramic tile floor or even a linoleum tile floor originally. If your maintenance department is beginning to spend more time cutting out broken tiles and replacing them with new ones, the entire floor would do best by being completely replaced.
Sign #2: No amount of stripping, polishing, waxing, and ceiling can cover up stains. This is especially true for linoleum tile floors. The older they get, the more exposed they become to potential staining. This is caused by excessive use and improper maintenance over time.
Sign #3: There are grooves where people frequently walk. If you’ve spent any time hiking in the woods, you will know what a path that is commonly used looks like compared to one that is rarely used. The more commonly used path will be completely worn out. Nothing will be growing in that area and it can be depressed more than the surrounding area. The same phenomenon can happen on commercial floors over time.
All three of these signs could very well indicate it’s time to begin developing a budget to have those commercial floors completely replaced.
