Tips for Keeping White Office Carpets Clean During the Summer

When it comes to office cleaning in Vancouver, every season has its challenge. Commercial carpets come in a variety of materials and have different cleaning requirements. White carpets can be challenging to keep clean, especially during the wet, rainy seasons. Although foot traffic is often reduced during summertime, regular carpet maintenance is crucial for avoiding permanent damage, stale odours, mould, and mildew growth.

Spot Treat Stains Immediately

Having an effective carpet stain remover readily available is essential in an office. Food and drink spills, pet accidents, and ink are common carpet stains that can be difficult to remove, especially when not immediately treated. When treating office carpet stains, referring to the manufacturer’s care instructions is best practice. Bleach and other strong chemicals…

Why Hire A Local, Family-Owned Commercial Cleaning Company

Many Vancouver businesses are hiring independent contractors or in-house cleaners, as it may appear to be a more affordable solution. Outsourcing commercial cleaning services to an independent cleaning contractor may be risky, as liability, quality, and security are not guaranteed. In addition, an independent contractor may fall ill or be unable to provide the same resources as a professional commercial cleaning company. Don’t let an unreliable, outsourced independent contractor waste valuable time, effort, money, and resources. Hire Clean Green Solutions, a Vancouver-based, family-owned commercial cleaning company, for personalized care, layers of communication, a tailored cleaning schedule, and the ability to meet all cleaning challenges or requests.

Top 5 Areas in An Office Where Dust Thrives

Dust appears in an office during the summer, even after being cleaned. Open windows and doors and frequent foot traffic bring in particles from outdoors, making routine dusting critical during the summertime. Although dust thrives in most areas around the office, five require extra attention.

1. Office Upholstery

Warm, dry air, office pets, periodic cleaning, poor ventilation, and regular use increase dust mites. Lack of maintenance causes dust accumulation on office upholstery, negatively impacting allergies, illness, and air quality. Office chairs require daily vacuuming, spot cleaning, and upholstery steam cleaning to fend off pet dander, mould, and dust mites.

2. Hard Surfaces

Dust can be found almost anywhere in an office but may not be easily visible to the human eye on all surfaces. Although it may seem as though…

Why Summer is the Best Time to Schedule Upholstery Cleaning

Take advantage of summer hours, fewer staff, and the nice weather by scheduling upholstery cleaning for your office or commercial space. There is a lot of downtime during the summertime, making it the ideal time to cross off essential cleaning tasks put on hold. Here are a few benefits to booking office upholstery cleaning during the summer.

Fewer People in the Office

It can be challenging to clean around the hustle and bustle of staff, customers, clients, and office pets. Not allowing ample drying time can cause office upholstery to look dirtier than its original condition. Avoid hiring an office cleaning company to do the same job twice by scheduling your business’s upholstery cleaning during the summer. Fewer people allow an office cleaner to steam clean efficiently and guarantee a thorough job.

Tips For Protecting Commercial Floors

Heavy foot traffic, spills, office pets, and seasonal elements cause regular wear and tear and damage commercial floors. Routine floor maintenance is vital for protecting and reviving hard surface floors. Although commercial floors are made from various materials, we recommend a few things to guarantee a long lifespan.

Apply A Sealant

Sealant is ideal for porous commercial floors such as hardwood, tile, concrete, stone, and cork or rubber. It protects and clogs the floor’s pores and prevents the absorption of stains. Water-based sealants are eco-friendly with low odours, making them ideal for indoor spaces like offices. A water-based sealant may not be as long-lasting as a polyurethane sealant. Still, they are much easier to apply and as effective (if not better) than a polyurethane sealant.

Use Steam

Steam is a low-hassle,…

Benefits of Janitorial Services in the Summer

There is a common misconception among many Vancouver businesses that having fewer staff at the office should require less cleaning. Reducing cleaning frequency during the summertime increases the chances of dust, rodents and pests, allergies, and unpleasant odours. Building cleaning requirements change with the seasons. It is critical to maintain a consistent cleaning standard throughout the year to prevent cleaning from falling through the cracks.

5 Bad Office Cleaning Habits to Avoid

Although cleaning may seem easy, it comes with many challenges. Bad office cleaning habits can increase workload, cause workplace illness, and decrease productivity. Staying on top of cleaning is crucial to avoid permanent damage and ensure a healthy working environment. Here are some everyday bad office cleaning habits to avoid.

Infrequent Deep Cleans

Routine deep cleaning is vital in busy Vancouver offices with heavy foot traffic and various shared spaces. Most office cleaners surface clean, which includes basic cleaning tasks such as dusting, taking out the garbage, vacuuming, and mopping. Daily cleaning helps maintain an office but is not enough to keep mould and mildew growth away, fend off bacteria and germs, and prevent everyday wear and tear.
