The Ins and Outs of Interior Design Maintenance: 5 Tips for Cleaning Commercial Carpeting

Companies spend thousands of dollars planning out and installing the commercial carpeting. For such an important aspect of interior design, it’s no wonder a well-kept carpet gives off a sense of professionalism in the business. Plus, consistent cleaning helps prevent mold growth and the spread of germs.
That’s why it’s worth giving extra attention to maintaining your company carpets that extends beyond basic vacuuming. Here are 5 tips for commercial carpet maintenance every manager needs to know.

Choosing the Right Equipment

Traditional vacuum cleaners found largely in residential homes are large, bulky, and hard to use when you have plenty of furniture to clean around. That’s why offices with cubicles don’t play well with these standard vacuums.
Plan on investing in backpack vacuums, which are better for covering smaller, hard-to-reach places like underneath chairs and between desks.

Welcome Mats

If you can, keep the sidewalks outside the premises clear of dirt, snow, and debris. Place a rack for storing boots and snowshoes next to the entrance.
Otherwise, welcome mats with coarse textures help keep dirt off your guests’ shoes and subsequently away from your commercial carpeting. When new clients enter your building, any absorbent mats can trap most of the debris in the first few steps.
Scraper mats are also available, which are made of rubber-like materials with deep grooves intended for visitors to scrape off any large snow and dirt. A “please wipe your shoes” sign complements a scraper mat well. No matter which option you choose, remember to clean and replace the mats regularly as well.

Moving Furniture

The layout of your offices routes the foot traffic through your carpet. Consider changing the layout of furniture every now and again to even out the wear and tear.
Carpet protectors for the legs of tables and chairs are another option that spread the weight of furniture on the carpeting, preventing unnecessary damage.

Routine Cleaning

The longer a stain or tear stays on your commercial carpeting, the harder it becomes to remove it fully. Dirt particles, when left there too long, will scrape away at carpet fibers. That’s why the maintenance staff should have a consistent schedule for inspecting and vacuuming.
Pay special attention to high traffic areas like entrances and hallways. Vacuum preferably daily but at least twice a week as recommended by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Also, opt for deep cleaning twice a year from a commercial carpeting cleaning service.

Sunlight Damage

Finally, remember to keep shades and blinds closed and install awnings. Exposure to sunlight has been known to fade out the carpet colors.
