What is hardwood floor cleaning?
Hardwood floor cleaning deep-cleans the finish on wood floors, and on engineered wood, laminate and vinyl plank, with a pH-neutral cleaner and a scrubbing machine or microfiber pads, then picks up the dirty solution and dries the floor. It cleans the finish: sanding, recoating and refinishing are flooring work and are not part of it.
What hardwood floor cleaning includes
- Dry soil removed first with a vacuum or dust mop
- A pH-neutral cleaner suited to the finish
- Scrubbing by machine or microfiber pad, along the boards
- The dirty solution picked up, not left on the floor
- The floor dried with microfiber and airflow
Stairs, furniture moving and add-ons are usually their own lines on the price; see the terms below. Scope varies by company, so agree the price before work starts.

Hardwood floor cleaning: questions homeowners ask
How much does hardwood floor cleaning cost in Moorpark?
Typical national cost range, not a quote: $0.50–$0.62 per square foot; refinishing is separate flooring work. Maid VIP estimate: about $0.40–$0.80 per square foot. No Moorpark averages are published; Maid VIP confirms the price before any work.
Can you steam clean hardwood floors?
No: steam drives heat and moisture into the wood and between the boards, which can damage the wood and its finish, and the National Wood Flooring Association advises against steam on wood floors. Professional cleaning uses a pH-neutral cleaner and picks the solution back up.
Does hardwood floor cleaning work on laminate and vinyl plank?
Hardwood floor cleaning suits engineered wood, laminate and vinyl plank as well, with a cleaner made for the surface; Stanley Steemer, for one, cleans all of them with its hardwood service.
Is cleaning the same as refinishing a wood floor?
Cleaning lifts soil and residue from the finish; refinishing sands the floor and applies a new finish, costs $3–$8 per square foot on Angi’s figures, and is flooring work that needs a Contractors State License Board license for jobs of $1,000 or more.
