Floors take more punishment than any other surface in an apartment. Every footstep, spill, and piece of furniture leaves a mark over time. Standard mopping maintains appearance. It does not address built-up residue, grout discolouration, or the specific needs of different floor materials.
Professional floor cleaning in Zurich is offered by Apartment Cleaning Zurich for all hard floor types found in residential apartments. We match our tools, products, and technique to your specific floor. The wrong product on parquet or natural stone causes damage that cannot be reversed. We do not take that risk.
We cover all Zurich districts and work in occupied apartments without disruption to your routine.

Zurich apartments contain a wide range of hard floor materials. Each one has different properties and requires a different cleaning approach. Here is how we handle each type:
Durable but sensitive to moisture and harsh detergents. We use parquet-safe, pH-neutral products and controlled cleaning methods to protect the finish.
Tiles are tough, but grout is porous. We scrub grout lines and rinse thoroughly for a brighter, residue-free surface.
Water-resistant but prone to scratches from abrasives. We clean with soft tools and gentle, pH-neutral solutions to preserve the finish.
Porous and sensitive to acids. We use stone-safe, pH-neutral products and optional sealants to protect and maintain the surface.
Sensitive to standing water. We use minimal moisture and dry-cleaning methods to prevent swelling or damage.
Professional floor cleaning is most valuable at specific points in an apartment’s use. These are the situations where standard cleaning is not enough:
• Move-out cleaning: Swiss rental inspections are detailed. Floors are checked for stains, grout discolouration, and surface condition. Professional cleaning gives the best result before a Wohnungsabgabe.
• Post-renovation residue: Building work leaves fine dust and debris that embeds into grout lines, stone surfaces, and wood grain. Standard mopping spreads it rather than removing it.
• Long-term buildup: Floors cleaned regularly at home still accumulate residue in grout lines, along skirting edges, and in high-traffic areas. A professional clean resets the surface.
• Before new tenants arrive: A freshly cleaned floor makes a strong first impression and protects the landlord’s property between tenancies.
• Seasonal deep clean: Many Zurich residents book a floor clean once or twice a year alongside other deep cleaning work.
We do not use a single product across all floor types. Every material on the list above receives a cleaning solution matched to its surface chemistry and finish.
All products we use are pH-neutral unless a specific floor type requires a targeted treatment. pH-neutral products clean effectively without breaking down sealants, stripping finishes, or reacting with stone and grout.
We do not use steam cleaning on wood, laminate, or natural stone. Steam forces moisture into materials that cannot tolerate it. The damage appears gradually and is often attributed to other causes. We use controlled-moisture methods throughout.
After cleaning, each floor type is checked in natural light for any remaining marks, residue, or dull patches. We address these before the job is closed.
The process is the same for every job:
1. Book and confirm. Tell us your floor types and approximate area when you book. We confirm the appointment and advise if any preparation is needed in advance.
2. We assess the floor on arrival. We check the material, condition, and any problem areas before selecting products and tools. We do not start cleaning until we are confident in the approach.
3. We clean systematically. We work through each room in sections. Grout scrubbing, edge cleaning, and surface treatment are done in sequence. No area is skipped.
4. Drying time and final check. We let the floor dry and then check the result under natural light. You can walk on most floors within 30 to 60 minutes of completion.
You do not need to be present during the clean. Many clients arrange key handover in advance and return to a finished apartment.

Floor cleaning pairs well with our deep cleaning service for a full apartment reset. It can also be combined with curtain cleaning for a thorough pre-inspection clean before a tenancy handover.
We cover all Zurich districts with flexible scheduling, including weekday and Saturday availability.
