With weather experts predicting more snow and blizzards for the DC Metro area this winter, commercial cleaning services are anticipating more requests for professional carpet cleaning and other floor cleaning services. Snow, ice, and salt can wreak havoc on floors and carpets, leaving them dirty, stained, and looking their worst. 

Here are some tips to keep your business looking its best during the winter months:

1. Place mats at all entrances to help catch debris.
2. Establish a regular sweeping and vacuuming schedule. Vacuuming is essential for removing dirt, dust, and other debris from your floors and carpets. During the winter months, you may need to increase the frequency of vacuuming services.
3. Schedule a deep cleaning of carpets. Deep cleaning your carpets will remove dirt, stains, and allergens that have accumulated over time. Consider having your carpets deep cleaned at least once a year, but more often if they are heavily trafficked.
4. Promptly remove spills on tile floors. Accidents happen, but it’s essential to address spills promptly to prevent staining and etching of the tile surface. Our professional technicians are trained to use the correct cleaning solutions to ensure that no harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners damage your floors. 
5. Don’t forget the grout in your tile floors. Grout is particularly susceptible to staining and discoloration during winter.

By implementing these preventative measures and adopting a regular cleaning routine, you can ensure that your facility’s carpets and floors remain pristine and stain-free throughout the winter months, maintaining a welcoming and professional environment for employees and visitors.
