How Upholstery Cleaning Can Revive Your Office Chairs

Office chairs are prone to spills, sweat, rips and tears, and dust, dirt, and debris. Without recurring maintenance, upholstered office chairs can start to look beaten up and outdated. To prevent permanent wear and tear, spot cleaning, vacuuming, and professional upholstery cleaning should be completed.

 

Vacuuming

 

The easiest way to get rid of dust, dirt, and debris is by vacuuming. Office chairs have tight crevices, so it is crucial to use vacuum accessories for a thorough clean. Changing the vacuum settings to a low suction will help prevent damage to the upholstery. Vacuuming should be done once a week to every few weeks, depending on the amount of build-up.

 

Spot Cleaning

 

Upholstered office chairs are susceptible to coffee stains and lunch spills. Some stains can be difficult to remove such as oil stains, chocolate,…

Signs Your Office Carpets May Need Cleaning

Carpets tend to be high traffic areas, which make them easily susceptible to wear and tear.

To prevent unnecessary damage, spot cleaning and vacuuming should be done regularly and carpet steam cleaning should be done every six months to a year.

Common Electrostatic Disinfection Myths

Electrostatic Disinfection has been increasing in popularity since the start of the global pandemic. With new technology, there is always some hesitancy and skepticism as to whether these new methods are actually effective. We are here to tackle the common Electrostatic Disinfection myths to help you make an informed decision.
