Hard Floor Cleaning & Maintenance Melbourne
Commercial floors take a beating. Foot traffic, spills, scuff marks, mysterious stains nobody wants to claim.
From polished concrete in warehouses to vinyl in offices and tiles in retail spaces, floors are the first thing people notice… and the thing most cleaners barely maintain. A quick mop, a swirl, and they’re out. We're here to change that.
EarthWize provides hard floor cleaning services across Melbourne for businesses that want their floors actually maintained, not just given a quick mop and a wave goodbye.

Our Hard Floor Cleaning Services for Melbourne Businesses
Regular Floor Maintenance
The bread and butter of keeping commercial floors in good nick. This includes thorough vacuuming to get rid of dirt and debris before it scratches surfaces, mopping with our chemical-free solution, scrubbing for those areas that need more attention, and buffing to maintain shine and protect surfaces. How often you need this depends on your foot traffic and floor type, but the key is consistency. Neglected floors deteriorate fast, and restoration is always more expensive than maintenance.
Machine Floor Cleaning
For larger spaces or floors that need more intensive care, we bring in the proper equipment. Commercial scrubbers, buffers, and extraction machines that actually get the job done. This is particularly important for high-traffic areas like lobbies, corridors, and open-plan offices where regular mopping just doesn't cut it. Our office floor cleaning in Melbourne includes scheduled machine cleaning as part of a proper maintenance plan.
Strip and Seal Floors
Some floors need a fresh start. Strip and seal involves removing old, worn finish down to the bare surface, then applying new protective sealant that restores the floor's appearance and extends its life. It's a more intensive process, but the results speak for themselves. We see a lot of vinyl, linoleum, and timber floors that have been neglected for years suddenly look brand new after a proper strip and seal. If your floors are looking dull, scuffed, or patchy despite regular cleaning, this is probably what they need.
Floor Polishing
Polished floors look professional, but they don't stay that way on their own. Floor polishing services maintain that high-gloss finish on concrete, terrazzo, and other hard surfaces. Regular polishing fills minor scratches, evens out the surface, and keeps floors looking sharp. It's a relatively quick process when done regularly, but leave it too long and you're looking at a full restoration.
Concrete Floor Cleaning
Concrete floors are popular in Melbourne's offices, retail spaces, and industrial settings. They're durable, but they're also porous, which means they absorb stains and show dirt more than you'd expect. Our concrete floor cleaning approach addresses this with proper equipment and technique. We also handle polished concrete maintenance, which has its own specific requirements if you want to keep that shine.
Tile Floor Cleaning
Tiles are straightforward to clean on the surface, but grout lines are a different story. They collect dirt, stain easily, and turn grey over time. Our tile floor cleaning includes proper grout attention so your floors look consistently clean, not just clean in patches. We work with ceramic, porcelain, and natural stone tiles across commercial spaces.
Floors We Work With
We provide commercial floor cleaning across Melbourne for pretty much any hard floor surface you'll find in a business setting. Our team is trained to identify your floor type and use the right cleaning method for the material. This includes (but is not limited to)
-
Common in offices and healthcare settings, vinyl and linoleum floors are durable but they show neglect quickly. Scuff marks, dull patches, and that tired grey look happen when they're not maintained properly. We clean and restore these surfaces safely, without harsh chemicals that degrade the material over time.
-
You'll find polished concrete in warehouses, retail spaces, and modern offices across Melbourne. It looks sleek when maintained, but concrete is porous and absorbs stains more than you'd expect. We keep that polished finish looking sharp and address spills and marks before they become permanent features.
-
Kitchens, bathrooms, and retail spaces rely on tiles for good reason. They're durable and easy to clean on the surface, but grout lines are a different story. They collect dirt, stain easily, and turn grey over time. We clean the tiles and the grout so your floors look consistently clean, not just clean in patches.
-
Marble and granite in lobbies and reception areas make a statement, but they're also sensitive to the wrong cleaning products. Acidic chemicals etch the surface and dull that high-end finish. We use the right approach for natural stone so your investment keeps looking the way it should.
-
Boardrooms and traditional offices often feature timber floors, and they need careful handling. Too much moisture damages the wood and wrong products strip the finish. We clean hardwood floors properly, protecting the surface while removing dirt and restoring shine.
-
Popular in older buildings and high-end retail, terrazzo is beautiful but requires specific maintenance to keep its lustre. We handle the polishing and cleaning that keeps terrazzo floors looking their best, not worn and faded like you see in neglected buildings.
Why Melbourne Businesses Choose Our Floor Cleaning Services
We clean without the chemical cocktail
Most commercial floor cleaning involves a parade of harsh chemicals. Strippers, sealers, detergents, the works. Our approach is different and we’ve got paperwork to back it up (hello B Corp certification). We use Tersano SAO technology, which sanitises and cleans using oxygenated water. No toxic residues left behind on surfaces your team walks on every day. No harsh fumes lingering after we leave. Just genuinely clean floors that are actually safe for the people using your space.
Real maintenance
Here's what actually happens with most commercial floor maintenance: someone runs a mop around, maybe hits the high-traffic areas with a machine, and calls it done. That's not maintenance. That's putting on a show. We provide proper commercial floor maintenance that addresses the actual condition of your floors. Regular vacuuming to prevent grit from grinding into surfaces. Scrubbing that removes embedded dirt. Buffing that restores shine. Machine washing that reaches what mops miss. The full job, done properly.
Our team sticks around
Our cleaners earn above-award wages, and we employ them directly, so there's no subcontractors rotating through your building.
They get real ownership over their sites, which means the same faces looking after your floors week after week. People who learn your space, know its quirks, and notice when something's off before it turns into a problem.

Commercial Floor Maintenance: Our Process
01
Assessment first
We start by looking at what you've actually got. Floor type, current condition, foot traffic patterns, problem areas. This tells us what approach makes sense and how often maintenance should happen.
02
A plan that fits your operation
Some spaces need weekly maintenance, others are fine with monthly deep cleans. We work around your schedule because having cleaners in the way during business hours helps nobody. Early mornings, evenings, weekends, whatever works for your operation.
03
Consistent execution
The same team, the same approach, the same amazing results. Every time. That's what proper commercial floor maintenance looks like. Not a different contractor every week doing things their own way.
04
Honest communication
If your floors need more intensive work, we'll tell you. If you're paying for services you don't need, we'll tell you that too. No upselling for the sake of it, no pretending everything's fine when it isn't.

You’ve got the floor (pun intended) and we’ve got answers
-
It depends entirely on foot traffic and floor type. A busy retail entrance might need daily attention, while a low-traffic office corridor might be fine weekly. We assess your specific situation and recommend a schedule that keeps your floors in good condition without wasting money on unnecessary services.
-
Cleaning addresses surface dirt. Maintenance addresses the condition of the floor itself through scrubbing, buffing, sealing, and polishing. Most commercial floors need both: regular cleaning to stay presentable and periodic maintenance to stay protected.
-
Yes. Our Tersano SAO technology uses oxygenated water that's been proven effective for sanitisation and cleaning. You get genuinely clean floors without the chemical residues or fumes. It's better for your team's health and for the environment.
-
We remove the existing finish down to the bare floor surface, address any stains or damage, then apply fresh protective sealant. The process takes longer than regular cleaning, typically outside business hours, but results in floors that look significantly better and are easier to maintain going forward.
-
Absolutely. Most of our commercial floor cleaning happens early mornings, evenings, or weekends. We work around your operation, not the other way around.
