Matching the Machine to the Floor
A rotary floor machine is one tool that does several completely different jobs depending on which pad or attachment you put under it. Getting that pairing right is the whole trick.
13" Floor Polisher — $25/day
The compact machine. Light, easy to control, and the right size for bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, small offices, laundry rooms and anywhere you have to work around fixtures. First-time users find this one much easier to keep straight than the larger machines.
17" Polisher / Sander — $50/day
The workhorse. Scrubs and strips VCT and tile, polishes concrete, and — with the sanding attachment at $10 per day plus 17-inch discs — sands and screens floors. This is the machine for stripping old wax off a commercial tile floor or prepping a garage slab.
20" High-Speed Polisher — $50/day
Wider path and higher RPM for burnishing large open areas to a shine. Best on big spans of finished floor — retail, church halls, gyms, warehouse offices — where a 13-inch machine would take all day.
Bissell Carpet / Rug Machine — $35/day
Hot-water extraction for carpet and rugs, with an upholstery/stair attachment available for $5 per day. The practical answer for post-tenant turnovers, pet accidents and annual deep cleaning.
Pads and Discs — Get These Right
The pad determines what the machine actually does. Moore Rental Service stocks pads in 13-inch, 17-inch and 20-inch sizes so you are not hunting for them elsewhere mid-job.
- Black pads — the most aggressive. Stripping old wax and finish. Never use a black pad on a floor you intend to keep the finish on.
- Red pads — general scrubbing and light buffing between finish coats.
- White pads — the gentlest. Polishing and burnishing an already-clean, finished floor to a shine.
- Sanding discs (17") — available in 12, 20, 36 and 80 grit for use with the sanding attachment, plus a 120-grit screen for final screening between finish coats.
The standard sequence for stripping and refinishing a tile floor is: black pad with stripper → rinse and wet-vac → dry completely → apply finish → burnish with a white pad. Skipping the rinse-and-dry step is the most common reason a new finish coat fails.
Hardwood Floor Refinishing
Refinishing hardwood is a different machine set entirely, and Moore Rental Service stocks both halves of it:
- Drum-style hardwood floor sander — $75/day. The main machine for taking a wood floor down to bare timber. Drum sanders remove material aggressively and will gouge a floor if you let one sit still with the drum down. Keep it moving, start and stop the drum while you are walking, and always work with the grain. Belts are stocked in 20 (coarse), 36 (medium) and 80 (fine) grit.
- 7-inch floor sander edger — $55/day. The drum sander cannot reach the last few inches at the wall, and the edger handles that perimeter. Discs come in 20, 36 and 80 grit. Every hardwood job needs both machines — renting the drum sander alone leaves an unfinished border around the entire room.
A 5-gallon or 15-gallon wet/dry vacuum ($30 and $35 per day) is essential for pulling dust between grits — sanding residue left on the floor ruins the next pass and contaminates the finish.
Tile, Carpet and the Rest of the Floor Catalog
The floor care category at Moore Rental goes well beyond buffers. Wet tile saws in 8-inch, 10-inch and 24-inch bridge and sliding-tray configurations rent from $55 to $70 per day. Manual ceramic and vinyl tile cutters rent for $16.50 per day. For carpet installation there is a ratchet-powered rug stretcher ($35/day), a knee-kicker ($15/day), a seaming iron ($20/day) and a 75–100 lb floor roller ($15/day). If your project touches a floor, the parts are almost certainly on the shelf.

Floor Buffer Scrubber Rental — Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to rent a floor buffer in Arlington, TX?
Moore Rental Service rents a 13-inch floor polisher for $25 per day or $100 per week, and both the 17-inch polisher/sander and the 20-inch high-speed polisher for $50 per day or $200 per week. Pads are sold separately, from $8.50 for 13-inch to $14.50 for 20-inch. Call (817) 277-1141 to confirm.
Which floor pad color should I use?
Black pads are the most aggressive and are used for stripping old wax and finish. Red pads handle general scrubbing and light buffing. White pads are the gentlest and are for polishing and burnishing an already-clean finished floor. Using a black pad on a floor whose finish you want to keep will strip it right off.
What size floor machine do I need?
Use the 13-inch for bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, small offices and anywhere you must work around fixtures — it is also the easiest for a first-time user to control. Step up to the 17-inch for stripping and scrubbing tile or prepping concrete, and the 20-inch high-speed for burnishing large open areas like retail floors and church halls.
Can I rent a machine to sand and refinish hardwood floors?
Yes. A drum-style hardwood floor sander rents for $75 per day and a 7-inch floor sander edger for $55 per day. You need both — the drum sander cannot reach the last few inches at the wall, and renting it alone leaves an unfinished border around every room. Belts and discs are stocked in 20, 36 and 80 grit.
How do I strip and refinish a tile floor?
The standard sequence is: run a black pad with stripper, rinse thoroughly and pull the slurry with a wet/dry vacuum, let the floor dry completely, apply the new finish, then burnish with a white pad. Skipping the rinse-and-dry step is the most common reason a fresh finish coat fails to bond.
Do you rent carpet cleaning machines?
Yes. A Bissell carpet and rug cleaning machine rents for $35 per day or $140 per week, and an upholstery/stair attachment adds $5 per day. Moore Rental Service also stocks a ratchet-powered rug stretcher, a knee-kicker, a seaming iron and a floor roller for carpet installation.
Is a floor buffer hard to operate?
There is a learning curve — a rotary machine pulls to one side or the other depending on how you tilt the handle, and letting it drift is how beginners scuff a wall. The trick is keeping the handle level and letting the machine walk itself side to side. Start with the 13-inch if you have never run one, and ask for a demonstration at the counter.
Do you have the pads and sanding discs in stock?
Yes. Floor pads are stocked in 13-inch ($8.50), 17-inch ($12.00) and 20-inch ($14.50) sizes in black, white and red, along with 17-inch sanding discs in 12, 20, 36 and 80 grit, 120-grit screens, and drum belts and 7-inch edger discs for hardwood work. Everything ships out the door with the machine.
