The Guide to Clean Concrete Floor in the Basement

1. First, sweep the floor or vacuum the floor. The floor should be clear of all debris including furniture, and storage containers. Run the pressure washer on high-pressure hot water. The hot water and the pressure will deep clean the pores of the concrete removing heavy dirt.

2 . Use the push broom to push the water out. If your basement cannot handle a pressure wash, Use the bucket and the mop to wash the floor. Repeat this process twice if necessary or until it’s completely clean. When you’re done washing the floor, dry it with a large old towel or a dry mop. These are sure to absorb any settled water.
