Our Stripping & Sealing Service in Melbourne Protects Your Floors

Whether you have a newly installed flooring that will benefit from extra protection or the old sealer on your vinyl, linoleum or hardwood floor is no longer viable, Fantastic Cleaners Melbourne can come to your assistance and provide you with a specialised floor stripping and sealing service.

The floor maintenance technicians will arrive on time at your property, fully equipped with high-tech machinery and the right solutions for your floorings.

Why Apply a Sealant on Your Tiled or Vinyl Floor

Not every type of floor requires an additional protection. Fire-glazed tiles, such as porcelain, usually do not need to be sealed.

Porous surfaces, however, such as natural stone tiles, are prone to get stained easily if they have not been treated with a sealer. Commercial high-traffic vinyl, linoleum or hardwood floorings can also benefit from being additionally protected, where a solvent-based penetrating sealant is usually applied.

Depending on the type of floor you have and the type of sealant (water-based/solvent-based), which has been applied, the following effects may be achieved:

  • The surface becomes scratch-resistant
  • The protective solution acts as a stain repellent
  • An anti-slippery effect is achieved after the treatment
  • The floor surface changes its appearance - gloss/matte finish
  • The flooring requires less maintenance
  • It becomes more durable

Please, note that buffing is also available, upon request, for already sealed/varnished hard floors (hardwood, tiles, vinyl, etc.).

Interesting fact:

Water-based sealing products are usually lower in toxicity and have less smell, compared to solvent-based sealing products, but they are not suitable to be used outdoors. Also, contrary to general knowledge, water-based sealants and finishes are not easier to use or apply than solvent-based ones. In some cases, they can present difficulties when removal time arrives.

Floor Stripping and Sealing

Our Stripping and Sealing service Process

DIY floor sealing often fails. Skipping old sealant removal or using the wrong product can leave floors milky, cracked, or unprotected.

With Fantastic Cleaners Melbourne, your floors get professional care tailored to their material:

  • Inspection: Technicians assess your floor and choose the best sealant.
  • Stripping Old Sealant: Removes old layers safely for a smooth finish.
  • Preparation: Neutralising and rinsing to create the ideal base.
  • Sealant Application: Multiple coats applied with proper drying for long-lasting protection.
  • New Floors: Same process without stripping for floors never sealed before.

Trust Melbourne specialists to deliver floors that look flawless, last longer, and stay protected against wear, stains, and traffic.

When You Need Stripping and Sealing in Melbourne

Stripping and sealing is essential when floors start to lose their finish, protection, or overall appearance. Book this service when you notice:

  • Floors looking dull, worn, or uneven in shine
  • Old sealant peeling, yellowing, or showing cracks
  • Stains, scratches, or marks that won’t come out with regular cleaning
  • High-traffic areas becoming harder to maintain
  • Preparing a property for sale, lease, or inspection
  • After installing new flooring that needs protective sealing

Professional stripping and sealing restores the look of your floors while adding a durable protective layer, making them easier to maintain and longer-lasting.

Types of Flooring We Strip and Seal

Our stripping and sealing service in Melbourne is suitable for a wide range of flooring types. Each surface is assessed and treated with the most appropriate method and sealant to ensure the best results and long-lasting protection.

Vinyl and Linoleum Floors

Ideal for restoring worn, scratched or dull surfaces. We remove old polish build-up and apply a fresh, even seal for a clean, glossy finish.

Tile and Grout Surfaces

Perfect for kitchens, bathrooms and commercial areas. We strip residue and seal tiles and grout to improve appearance and reduce future staining.

Natural Stone Floors (Marble, Travertine, Slate)

Delicate surfaces require specialised care. We use suitable sealants to enhance the natural look while protecting against moisture and damage.

Concrete Floors

Common in garages, warehouses and modern homes. Sealing helps protect against dusting, stains and wear while improving durability.

Timber and Hardwood Floors

Where suitable, we apply protective sealants to enhance the look of the wood and provide added resistance to everyday wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I get a quote over the phone?
A: Yes. We will need to know the size of the area that requires stripping and/or sealing and the type of material your flooring is made of.
Q: I am not sure what type of sealant I should use on my tiles. Can the technician advise me on this?
A: Of course. The tile sealing technicians are qualified and certified to provide you with professional advice and to execute the service to the highest standard.
Q: How long do I need to wait for the floor to dry after it has been sealed?
A: This will depend on whether the surface has been treated with a water-based or a solvent-based sealer. The technician is going to provide you with all the aftercare information and tips you need to know.
Q: What type of sealer is suitable for natural stone floorings?
A: We believe that a water-based impregnator is the best protective solution for porous surfaces, such as natural stone.
Q: Are the floor products you use toxic?
A: The sealants we work with are industry-standard solutions. As a general rule, solvent-based topical or penetrating sealers may contain more VOC (volatile organic compounds) than water-based sealants.
Q: Can the technician help me move the furniture to another room?
A: We cannot move any heavy pieces of furniture. Please, ask your technician if you require help with moving some light furniture items.
