A rotary floor scrubber is best for hard floors such as tiles, vinyl, sealed concrete and safety flooring. A carpet cleaner is best for carpets, rugs, sofas and upholstery. A floor buffer or polisher is used for finishing and shine restoration after the floor is already clean. A wet and dry vacuum is used for water, slurry and dust pickup — it does not scrub the floor by itself. Always check the floor type, area size and access before booking.

Step 3 · Know the machines
Know the machines: what does each one do?
Five core floor cleaning machines, in plain English.
Rotary Floor Scrubber & Polisher
What it doesScrubs hard floors and can polish or buff with the right pad. Best starting point for hard-floor cleaner hire.
Best forTile, vinyl, sealed concrete, safety flooring, office, retail and warehouse floors.
Not ideal forCarpets, or very wet floors without a separate water-pickup machine.
Rotary Floor Buffer
What it doesPolishes and buffs an already-clean floor for finishing and shine restoration.
Best forVinyl, tile, marble, sealed concrete and wood floors where suitable.
Not ideal forHeavy soil removal — a buffer doesn't replace scrubbing.
Carpet Cleaner
What it doesUses hot-water extraction to clean carpets, rugs and upholstery.
Best forCarpets, sofas, end-of-tenancy, residential and office cleans.
Not ideal forHard floors, or delicate fibres without testing first.
Brush-type Carpet Cleaner
What it doesAdds a powered brush to lift dirt from deeper pile while extracting.
Best forHigh-traffic carpets, offices, schools, hotels and commercial cleans.
Not ideal forWool or silk fibres without a small test, or hard floors.
Wet & Dry Vacuum
What it doesPicks up water, slurry, dust and debris. Hired from our wet and dry vacuum hire range.
Best forSpills, after-build cleanup, post-leak pickup, supporting a scrubber.
Not ideal forScrubbing — it does not scrub the floor by itself.
Quick answer
A rotary floor scrubber and polisher is the usual starting point for hard floor cleaning. A carpet cleaner suits carpets, rugs and upholstery. A wet and dry vacuum is used for water, slurry and dust pickup — it does not scrub the floor by itself. A floor buffer is used for finishing and shine restoration after the floor is already clean. For damp floors after cleaning, pair the cleaning machine with a wet and dry vacuum or floor dryer where appropriate.

Step 5 · Budgeting

Live prices appear on each product card above. Here's what changes the figure.
Machine type
A buffer, rotary scrubber and brush-type carpet cleaner sit at different price points.
Hire duration
Daily, 2–7 day and weekly rates differ — longer hires usually drop the per-day cost.
Floor size
Larger floors often need longer hire and a wet & dry vacuum alongside the scrubber.
Delivery or collection
London delivery is available by booking. Greenford UB6 collection is also an option.
Accessories & pads
Pads, brushes and cleaning solution may be needed depending on the floor and job.
More than one machine
Combining a scrubber + carpet cleaner + drying kit is common on full-property jobs.

FAQs
Floor cleaner hire — frequently asked questions
Selection, floor types, costs and London delivery.
What floor cleaning machine do I need?
For hard floors (tile, vinyl, sealed concrete, safety flooring), a rotary floor scrubber and polisher is the usual starting point. For carpets and upholstery, choose a carpet cleaner or a brush-type carpet cleaner. For polishing a clean floor, choose a rotary floor buffer with the right pad. If you're not sure, call us with the floor type and area size.
Do I need a scrubber dryer, a floor scrubber, a buffer or a carpet cleaner?
A scrubber dryer washes a hard floor and recovers dirty water in one pass — useful on large commercial floors. A rotary floor scrubber and polisher scrubs and polishes hard floors but does not recover water. A floor buffer polishes an already-clean floor for shine restoration. A carpet cleaner extracts dirt and water from carpets, rugs and upholstery. Hireload focuses on rotary scrubbers, polishers and carpet cleaners — call us if you specifically need a walk-behind scrubber dryer and we'll check availability.
Can I use a floor cleaner on tiles?
Yes. Tiled floors are a common job for a rotary floor scrubber and polisher. Sweep first, use a suitable pad and pH-neutral solution, and avoid aggressive pads on glazed tiles. Test a small area first where appropriate.
Can I use a floor cleaner on vinyl?
Yes. Use a softer pad on vinyl and a pH-neutral solution. A buffer with a white or red pad can be used to finish vinyl floors after they are clean. Always check the floor manufacturer's guidance and test a small area first.
Can I clean sealed concrete or warehouse floors?
Yes. Sealed concrete and warehouse floors can be scrubbed with a rotary floor scrubber and polisher. Sweep first, scrub in passes with a suitable solution, then pick up the dirty water with a wet and dry vacuum. Larger floors may need a longer hire — call us to plan duration and any drying equipment.
Can I clean carpets and upholstery from this category?
Yes. The carpet cleaner uses hot-water extraction for carpets, rugs and upholstery. The brush-type carpet cleaner adds a powered brush for deeper pile and high-traffic recovery. Test colour-fastness on coloured carpets and allow drying time.
Does a rotary floor scrubber dry the floor?
No. A rotary floor scrubber and polisher does not have a built-in dirty-water recovery tank, so the floor stays damp until it dries naturally or until the water is picked up with a wet and dry vacuum. For faster turnaround, pair the scrubber with a wet/dry vacuum and, where useful, a carpet/floor dryer.
Should I sweep before using a floor cleaning machine?
Yes. Loose dust, grit and debris will turn into mud once water and solution hit the floor, and grit can scratch the surface. Sweep or vacuum first, then start scrubbing or extracting. On safety flooring, this matters even more — texture traps debris.
How much does floor cleaner hire cost?
Daily prices are shown on each product card above this description. Cost depends on the machine, hire duration, floor size, delivery or collection, and any pads, brushes or accessories needed. For an accurate price, choose a product or call 020 3375 4048 with the floor type, area size and dates.
Can I hire floor cleaners in London? Can I collect from Greenford UB6?
Yes. London delivery is available by booking, and collection is available from our Greenford UB6 depot — also by booking. Out-of-zone delivery is available on request. Machines are checked before hire where applicable, with practical guidance available before booking. Call 020 3375 4048 to confirm.
