Strip & Wax in Hayward, CA
KCS performs full strip and wax service throughout Hayward and greater Alameda County. Floor care is our founding specialty — our owner has spent over 14 years stripping, sealing, and finishing commercial floors across the East Bay region — and Hayward facility managers get that same crew-level expertise, not a janitorial generalist with a rented machine. Every job runs the full sequence: proper stripper dwell, hand-detailed edges, a neutralizing rinse, and thin, even finish coats.
VCT shows up everywhere in Hayward: school corridors, church fellowship halls, medical suites, retail floors, and office buildings from Southland Mall area to the properties around California State University, East Bay. Traffic patterns differ, but the failure mode is the same — dull, yellowed finish and buildup along the edges. We strip to bare tile, neutralize, and rebuild with multiple coats of high-solids finish, then keep it glossy with scheduled burnishing.
Strip and wax in Hayward is scheduled around your downtime: overnight for offices, weekends for churches, and school breaks for campuses. Walk the floor with us, get a flat quote for the defined area, and reopen on schedule to a wet-look floor. Call (925) 301-5566 to book a Hayward floor assessment — and if a scrub-and-recoat will do the job for less, we will tell you so before you spend strip-out money.
What's Included
Complete Strip-Outs, Not Recoats
We take the floor to bare tile — corners, edges, and under fixtures included — so you are not paying strip-out prices for a heavy scrub.
Proper Chemistry & Neutralizing
Correct stripper dilution and dwell, followed by a full rinse and neutralizer pass. Skipping this step is why other companies' finish peels in six months.
Multi-Coat Premium Finish
Three to five thin, even coats of high-solids commercial finish with cure time honored between coats — the foundation of a durable wet look.
High-Speed Burnishing Programs
Periodic burnishing at 1500–3000 RPM hardens and re-glosses the finish between strip-outs, keeping floors showroom-bright year round.
