Hi Blacksheep,
we normally dont charge if its a simple buffing job , (thats if its an existing client) company's love there little freebies, But we do charge them for stripping and sealing and the price really depends on state of the floor (how many coats have been slapped down before etc!)and obviosly the size of the floor, Its dificult to put a price to it really ,i Just look at a floor and work out how long it would take ME  
Hope this helps

Hi Blacksheep

Maybe you could consider going on a hard floor course such as one that Prochem do....then you will know what is involved in stripping and looking after the clients floor.You would get an idea of pricing up too.

i can strip and seel a floor but always for the company i work forbut only on lino type floor ans as i work for them i dont know what people charge but no probs as soon as i make a few bucks i fully intend to do a carpet/ floor course. i still need to ring gorden from the carpet forum on here down in cardiff and take him up on his offer of a demo but have had very little time hes prob forgot about it by now ;D
