Marmoleum Repair

Here's an amazing restoration story. Client had a marmoleum floor that is 11 years old. Floor has been stripped and waxed too many times. It takes a beating from wheelchairs, walkers, janitor carts and more. Client researched replacing the floor and cost was going to be $5500 per dining room. At 5 rooms its quite the expense. Repair was going to $2000 per room. I went with our Integra Square and went to work. We chose a small area that was among the worst and went to work. Have a look at the work and see what were able to accomplish.

Basically process was scrub area for about 1-2 min with dry strip pad. Sweep clean, and then mop floor. Once dried applied 2 coats of Linobase. Let dry and top of with floor finish of choice. In this instance wanted a little lower shine so we went with 2 coats of Dustbane Orbit green certified and great resistance.
