If you have an office with hard floors or carpets you may think that the only reason for cleaning them is purely for appearance. While its true that cleaning your floors enhances the appearance of the office and therefore the companies reputation, the best reason for regular cleaning is increasing the life of the floor / carpet.
Carpet Cleaning
To maintain your office carpets keeping them clean with regular vacuuming is essential but often left as an after thought if there is no dedicated clean service employed. The vacuuming should be done with a professional vacuum cleaner with a high powered motor. This is to remove the grains of dirt, grit and crumbs from the pile of the carpet. If the dirt etc is not removed from the carpet it will get pushed down as feet tread it further and further into the pile. The constant footfall of traffic across the same areas will then cause premature wear as the grit acts as sandpaper eventually wearing through the threads exposing the substrate. However if vacuuming is carried out regularly then the opposite is true. Regular vacuuming combined with professional carpet cleaning not only provides your staff with a pleasant place to work but it also protects your investment.
Hard Floor Cleaning
Although cleaning hard floors can be done in the traditional way (mop and bucket), removing dirt with professional cleaning methods and detergents is far more effective. This combined with a regular visit to apply protection on a regular basis is also essential to maintain the appearance and longevity of the floor.
