The process typically includes the following steps:
1. Assessment and Preparation
Floor Identification
Determine the type of flooring (vinyl, stone, tile, hardwood, etc.) to choose appropriate cleaning methods and solutions.
Initial Inspection
Assess the condition of the floor, noting any areas that require special attention such as deep stains or damage.
Preparation
Remove furniture and other items from the area to be cleaned. Place protective guards as necessary to prevent damage to walls or baseboards.
2. Dry Soil Removal

Begin with sweeping or vacuuming to remove any loose dirt, dust, and debris. This step is crucial to prevent scratching the floor during wet cleaning.
3. Spot Treatment
Stain Identification
Identify and pre-treat specific stains using cleaning agents suitable for the flooring type. For example, a non-acidic cleaner might be used on natural stone to avoid etching.

Buffing/Polishing
For certain types of flooring like vinyl and some stones, buffing or polishing might be necessary to restore shine.
