Whether you’re running a warehouse, office, shop, or public venue, you need a solution that works hard without taking up all your time, and that solution is a floor scrubber.
At Smiths Hire, we’ve been helping businesses, tradespeople, and DIYers across the North West for over 50 years from our 18 depots, so we know exactly which machines work best for the task. Our scrubbers are designed to save you time, reduce labour, and leave floors looking clean, safe, and professional – without any of the associated costs with traditional mopping. So, if you’re considering hiring a floor scrubber for your business, here are some of the advantages to consider!
Save time and reduce labour
One of the biggest advantages of floor scrubbers is the time and effort they save you. Cleaning large areas by hand can be slow, tiring, and labour-intensive. Floor scrubbers allow you to cover more ground in less time, freeing your team to focus on other important tasks.
Our electric floor polisher and scrubber hire is perfect for daily cleaning. It operates on standard 240V power and is nice and easy to use, making it ideal for retail shops, offices, and smaller commercial spaces. This compact machine enables you to clean faster and more efficiently, eliminating the need for a team of people with mops and buckets (which can make all the difference after a long shift!).
A consistent professional clean
One of the biggest reasons to hire a floor scrubber is the consistent, professional finish it gives. Unlike manual mopping, which can leave streaks, missed patches, or uneven areas, a scrubber cleans evenly across the entire floor. It’s a bit like using a vacuum cleaner instead of a brush and dustpan, much faster, more thorough, and far less faff for large spaces.
If your space is on the bigger side or is in a high-traffic area, our industrial battery-powered floor scrubber is exactly what you need. With twin 400W brush motors, a 400W vacuum system, and a 550mm cleaning width, it makes sure every corner is properly cleaned. You can also adjust the brush pressure to suit different floor types, from ceramic tiles to polished concrete, so your floors always look their best without extra effort.
Improve hygiene and safety
A floor scrubber digs deeper. It lifts the dirt, grime, and bacteria that a mop would leave behind. It scrubs corners, edges, and awkward spots that are easy to miss. That matters in busy shops, warehouses, offices, and cafés where hygiene isn’t optional, it’s part of keeping your staff and customers safe.
It doesn’t stop there. A scrubber leaves the floor drier than a mop does, so when you’ve finished, the surface is safer to walk on. No puddles are left behind, which makes a real difference in high-traffic areas where people are moving all the time, and you need the floor to dry quickly.
Using a scrubber also cuts down on cross-contamination. You’re not just spreading dirty water around the floor like a mop; you’re picking it up and removing it. That keeps floors cleaner for longer and reduces the risk of germs building up.
Save money and avoid long-term costs
Investing in a commercial floor scrubber can be expensive, but hiring one from us gives you all the benefits without the large upfront cost. Our hire range includes both electric and battery-powered machines, so you can choose the right scrubber for your space and cleaning schedule.
Hiring also means you don’t need to worry about servicing, maintenance, or storage. The machines are ready to use when you need them, and our experienced team can advise on which scrubber is best for the type and size of floor you’re working with. By hiring, you get professional, commercial-standard cleaning equipment at a fraction of the cost of buying, and you can maintain high standards across your premises without committing to a piece of equipment you may not use every day!
Well-maintained floors make a big impression on customers, visitors, and staff. A polished, spotless floor shows attention to detail and reflects well on your business. Floor scrubbers help you achieve that professional finish every time, no matter how busy your space is.
At Smiths Hire, we’ve been helping businesses across the North West maintain spotless floors for over fifty years. With 18 tool hire depots, our floor cleaning hire range, and expert advice whenever you need it, you can always find the right equipment for your space.
