Dispenser stockouts are a common plight of commercial restrooms, especially during periods of high traffic.
Grout can easily become the cause of a wide range of restroom odors.
Keeping your commercial restroom looking and smelling its best is an important part of maintaining a positive perception of your facility among guests. If your guests notice a foul odor while they’re in your restroom, it’s possible that you and your janitorial team will have to clean your restroom more often to address complaints and negative reviews. Negative reviews about the state of your restroom can lead to reduced patronage and more frequent restroom maintenance. It’s essential to be able to identify, remove, and prevent odors in your restroom. Offensive smells in your commercial restroom can be caused by various sources like floor grout, drains, and toilets/urinals.
Your facility’s restroom can make or break the experience that your guests have in your business. Dirty restrooms not only make for a negative bathroom experience but can lead to an increased amount of complaints about the cleanliness of your facility. In fact, restrooms make up 5% of the space but account for 80% of complaints.
Carpet extractors are an important piece of janitorial floor maintenance equipment that can be used to deep clean the commercial carpets in your facility. Commercial carpet extractors differ in size, type, power source, and other factors that will affect how effective they are at maintaining your building’s carpeted and upholstered surfaces. Depending on the type of commercial carpet extractor you’re interested in purchasing for your facility, you will be able to spot clean tough stains and embedded dirt, or deep clean large carpeted areas. The variety of commercial carpet extractors that you can choose from may make it hard to find the best one for your facility. The right carpet extractor for your business will be based on the size of the area you’re looking to clean, your budget, and some other factors unique to your facility.
Did you know that up to 80% of the waste produced in schools could actually be recycled? A majority of the waste produced in schools isn’t disposed of properly leading to excessive trash and large disposal costs. In many cases, large amounts of paper, food packaging products, commercial cleaning supplies, and other waste that is generated are simply thrown out instead of being recycled or composted. One way to reduce the amount of waste your facility produces is to implement a recycling program.
Floor maintenance procedures of any kind can pose a safety risk to your staff and the people in your building. Risks include slips, falls, chemical exposure, and more. However, if performed correctly, these risks can be greatly reduced or even eliminated. One of the most necessary, yet accident-prone maintenance procedures performed by you and your staff is a strip and wax, also known as a strip and finish. A strip and wax is a restorative floor maintenance procedure that should be performed at least once a year to make sure that your floors are protected and look their best. During a strip and finish, your cleaning team will have to use floor stripping chemicals to remove layers of floor finish from your floors. Then, they will then apply multiple layers of finish to achieve a new clean, shiny floor. This process leaves the floor slippery and requires various cleaning chemicals and equipment.
Knowing how to use an auto floor scrubber is key to cleaning commercial hard floors safely and more efficiently. With an automatic floor scrubber, cleaning your commercial hard floors can be done with just one pass. An auto scrubber can be used in place of a mop and bucket to achieve clean, sanitary floors in your facility. You and your cleaning staff should know how to use the machine correctly to get the best cleaning outcomes and avoid any damage to your floor and equipment.
Choosing the right commercial floor finish for your facility is essential to achieving your desired facility appearance.
A floor buffer is commonly referred to as the “workhorse” of hard floor maintenance.
You can choose between a traditional disc or an orbital scrubber when choosing an automatic floor scrubber for your facility.
