Benefits of Professional Floor Maintenance

Posted on April 21, 2017 in Cleaning

Our specialist floor maintenance engineers frequently come across the issue of poor floor cleaning when talking to property managers, facility management agents and end users.

Unfortunately many general cleaning companies are unable to provide the specialist knowledge required to produce acceptable results in floor cleaning & maintenance.

Within many residential or commercial buildings there are multiple floor coverings that all require cleaning and maintaining, this can be challenging for a number of reasons.

There is such a wide range of machinery available for cleaning floors from numerous manufacturers it is imperative that the right equipment is chosen. Other factors could be; is the machinery site specific or will it be moved from site to site and will it perform on other sites different coverings? or has sufficient training been supplied to the operative chosen to carry out the task assigned? and what happens if the desired results aren’t achieved?

Looking at processes and attachment variations for machine types is absolutely critical as damage can be created when selecting the wrong brushes, pads or abrasives for a machine.

An example of this would be;

“Using a scouring pad instead of a soft sponge to wash your car with!”

It is also just as important to ensure that the attachment or process achieves a good result and doesn’t leave dirt or un-removed marks on the floor covering.

Chemicals are just as important, using incorrect ph levels on any floor covering can create irreversible damage and care should be taken when choosing the right products.

• Ensuring best results through techniques and methodology
