A light maintenance coat goes directly over a sound existing finish.
Delays the need for a full strip-and-wax by months or longer.
Faster than a full strip job, with less downtime for your space.
A recoat cleans the floor and applies a fresh layer of finish directly over the existing coat, as long as it’s still in good condition. It’s a lighter, faster service than a full strip-and-wax, and used on a regular schedule it can significantly stretch the time between full strips – which matters most on large commercial floors where a full strip means more downtime.
We confirm the existing finish is healthy enough to recoat.
The floor is cleaned to remove dirt and buildup before recoating.
A fresh, even top coat is applied over the existing finish.
We let the coat cure and walk the floor with you.

Maintenance recoats are priced similarly to spray buffing, typically $0.08-$0.15 per square foot, though this can vary with floor condition – ask for a firm quote.
If the existing finish is clean, even, and not yellowed or peeling, a recoat usually works. If the finish is heavily worn or built up in patches, we'll recommend a full strip-and-wax instead.
This depends on your traffic level – many commercial clients recoat every few months as part of a scheduled maintenance plan.
