Hardwood floor cleaning in Essex, Baltimore County, from a family-owned company about 48 minutes away in Forest Hill. Houses built in the 1940s and 50s were typically finished with oak floors.

Oak uncovered from under carpet in these older homes often has tack strip holes and staples at the edges, which a clean and buff will not hide.

Hardwood Floor Cleaning in Essex.
Essex sits on the water between Back River and Middle River, with post-war brick homes, townhouse rows and waterfront houses out on Back River Neck. Much of the housing dates from the 1940s through the 1960s. Humidity is the main thing to plan around in Essex: sofas can smell musty in summer and carpet dries more slowly, so run the AC or a dehumidifier after a cleaning. Townhouse stairs wear fastest and are priced per flight. Houses from the 1940s and 50s were typically built with oak floors, which are often still under the carpet. Sand from yards and docks acts like sandpaper on carpet fibers, so frequent vacuuming helps between cleanings. Rowhouse blocks mean street parking, so tell us the closest spot to your door. Rugs on those floors? Rugs near doors to decks and yards collect sand. We remove the dry grit first and clean the rug on site. We work throughout Essex and the rest of Baltimore County, including Essex, Back River Neck, Stemmers Run, near Back River.
