Commercial tile floor cleaning

/3,222 Comments/in /by


Importance of commercial tile floor cleaning as well as residential cannot be overlooked. Failing to maintain and clean tile floors in commercial buildings lead to the accelerated depreciation of assets and real health compromises. Building managers and owners have begun to recognize also the costs that are the most difficult to quantify, such as lost productivity, relate directly to compromised cleaning and floor maintenance. Tile floor is only one part of the whole complex subject of indoor environmental quality.
Frequent cleaning, coupled with preventative maintenance greatly prolongs the impact of soil and dirt on tile floor appearance. While wear and tear have few indoor air quality implications, it does impact end-user attitudes toward tile as the floor covering of choice. In many commercial buildings and offices, indoor environmental quality is 5-10 times worse than that outside. The average person spends 90% of the time indoors. Indoor environmental quality is important for the following reasons:
• Allergic responses to dust and fungi substantially increase with declining indoor environmental quality.
• Absenteeism can be traced to poor indoor environmental quality.
• Respiratory impairment in children under five is linked to poor indoor environmental quality.
• In extreme circumstances, poor indoor environmental quality leads to decreased lung capacity and increased heart workload.

do it yourself carpet cleaning with rental carpet cleaning machine Richmond

DIY carpet cleaning using a rental carpet cleaner may be tempting, but to maintain your floors spotlessly and reduce wear and tear, it’s best to hire carpet cleaning expert. Many people in Richmond area go do-it-yourself route thinking to save some money, but most of the times they end up spending more.

Depending on soiling and traffic it’s recommended to clean carpets annually or even biannually. And yet most people clean their carpets less frequently. At SteamLine we can deep clean your carpet thoroughly with hot water on a regular basis. It also helps to avoid potentially dangerous problems like a high level of dirt build up or even mold, which can lead to replacing of carpet floor.

You can rent a portable carpet cleaner from home improvement stores or grocery stores. Carpet cleaner rental cost anywhere from $50 to $100 per day, plus the cost of the carpet cleaning solution another $20-$30. Cleaning carpet with a small portable machine is very time-consuming. Carpet cleaning using rental equipment can take up to three hours per room, and whole house can take you easily a whole day.

Risks of using rented carpet cleaner include:

1. Takes too much time to clean carpets: a rental carpet cleaner machines are too small and take more time to clean your space

2. Oversaturation: because they use more water and vacuums is not powerful enough to recover most of the water drying time usually is too long. All this can lead to damaging the flooring beyond repair, or you might suffer from mold or mildew

3. Underpowered to handle the job: rental carpet cleaners are simply not powerful enough to remove even regular soils

4. Hard to use: equipment could be hard to move around

5. Equipment failure: rented equipment could break or work incorrectly

6. Carpet cleaning solutions are not in the powerful concentrations that professionals have access to.

While DIY carpet cleaning is the less expensive option for homeowners, you can end up spending more or even worse – replacing your carpet. Weigh all pros and cons of DIY carpet cleaning and decide if it worth the investment and potential additional costs.

Will carpet cleaning kill bed bugs?

/546 Comments/in /by

While a lot of people think steam carpet cleaning will kill bed bugs and it will take care of the problem, that is actually not the case.

Steam carpet cleaning does nothing to get rid of bed bugs. There really is no such thing as bed bug carpet cleaning. The steam from cleaning machine simply does not reach sufficient temperature to exterminate the bedbugs. Steam cleaning your carpets won’t fix the problem, it may only reduce it temporarily.

There are some steps you can take to reduce the presence of bed bugs and sometimes eliminate the problem completely. Make sure to clean your residence well, and prevent hiding places for bedbugs. Always check along the baseboards, piles of clothes, your mattresses, and even in furniture drawers.
