You may find that summer is a slower time for your commercial business – the weather is nice, and everyone is planning holidays away – but that doesn’t mean you should also slow down your cleaning. Instead, summer can be one of the best times to prioritize deep cleaning some of the areas in your business that may be getting neglected during the busier times of the year.
So, where are some of the places that you can focus your cleaning efforts this summer?
Exterior Surfaces
First impressions are important, so as a business owner you must make sure the first thing your customers see when they arrive at your commercial space is a clean and inviting exterior. Take a look at your windows, walkways and other exterior surfaces. Summer is a great time to get your windows cleaned, especially if you want to take full advantage of all the extra hours of sunlight. Do you also notice a buildup of dirt and grime on your exterior surfaces throughout the year? Consider exterior pressure washing services to refresh your building’s exterior.
Blinds and Draperies
Once windows are clean, ensure blinds and draperies around windows are also clean and dust-free. They are the perfect hiding place for dust and dirt. It is easy to forget to clean high surfaces, but you must clean them often to avoid pest and rodent infestations, fire hazards, and chronic health effects. Neglecting high surfaces has a significant impact on your health, your employees, and your customers.
Public Elevators and Stairwells
Elevators and stairwells, regardless of foot traffic and usage, are crucial when it comes to cleaning. Summer is a great time to deep clean high-traffic areas and eliminate dust and other debris that may have built up throughout the year. Ensure elevators and stairways are well maintained to leave a lasting first impression.
Commercial Floors
It can be challenging to decide the perfect time to clean commercial floors. Whether your business has commercial carpets or a different material such as hardwood, tile, or vinyl, it is essential that you implement routine commercial cleaning and quarterly deep cleaning services. If your business does experience a lull during summer, take advantage and book commercial carpet cleaning services, or focus on setting up a time for floor waxing for your office.
