An especially important part of the office that must be cleaned regularly is your carpet. Apart from the ones listed above, there are also many other reasons to have the carpet at your business cleaned regularly. Let’s explore some of those reasons:
Hygiene
Unlike other floor surfaces, carpet can accumulate and hold dust and dirt more easily because of its composition of thick fibers. The dirt and grime are trapped in the fibers, and are further compressed into the carpet when walked upon. Carpets may not appear as dirty as other floors at first glance, but because of their composition, they can actually be much less clean than a normal floor surface. This entrapment of dirt and dust can cause an allergic reaction with people who are allergic to the microbes that grow on the carpet because of the extra layer of dirt and dust.
An unclean carpet can also cause mold to form, which is another obvious health risk to the people who are walking on its surface. In order to grow, mold needs moisture, a food source, and a proper growing surface. You can see that a carpet is the perfect place for this growth, as carpet is often slightly damp due to the number of people walking on its surface; this combined with the dirt on the carpet gives the perfect place for mold to grow and flourish. This can again cause an allergic reaction to those people sensitive to the microbes present in mold.
To ensure that your carpet is cleaned properly and is completely free of dust and dirt, more than just a simple vacuuming is needed. A vacuum can clean the surface of the carpet, but more is needed to remove the dirt that has been trampled between the carpet’s fibers. Here at Classic Commercial Services, we ensure that your carpet is clean as possible with our innovative cleaning techniques.
Carpet Maintenance
In addition to the obvious health benefits, another benefit of regular carpet cleaning that is not often considered is the health of the carpet itself. We all know what a carpet looks like after having been used for a length of time. Its original color begins to fade, and its appearance begins to have a “trampled” look. Believe it or not, more than simply walking on the carpet, this look can be also caused by the dirt itself. The ragged edges of the dust and dirt particles can wear down the thickness of the fibers in the carpet, causing them to appear trampled and worn down.
Again, merely vacuuming the carpet will not solve the problem. A deep cleaning is needed to ensure that the carpet remains healthy and looking its best. At CCS, we have two innovative methods of cleaning your carpet; steam carpet cleaning and dry carpet cleaning. The name steam carpet cleaning is a bit of a misnomer, as steam is not actually used to clean the carpets. A better name for the process is Hot Water Extraction. The first step in the process is to take heated water (not actual steam), and spray the carpet while simultaneously vacuuming. The vacuum is used to remove the dirt and grime that is dislodged by the heated water. This is a very effective way of cleaning carpet, as it offers a deeper clean than many of the alternative methods. The water is pushed down to the base of the carpet, cleaning out as much dirt and grime as possible. Hot Water Extraction is also environmentally friendly, as fewer toxic chemicals are used in the cleaning process.
The second carpet cleaning method is the Dry Cleaning or “very low moisture” method, in which low moisture chemicals that break down the dirt and grime are sprayed into the carpet. The loose dirt is then vacuumed from the carpet. The benefit of this method is the very low drying period required.
