Commercial carpet receives many times the traffic of typical residential carpet. That’s why it’s important to select carpet that meets your needs, such as fiber, construction, pile design, and color, and then have the commercial carpet installed so that fits your needs. However, once that carpet is properly selected and installed, its durability and lasting beauty are highly dependent on the ongoing maintenance and cleaning programs.

The key component in programmed maintenance and cleaning is routine vacuuming coupled with rapid response to spots and spills. Carpet serves as a “sink” or collection point for everything that is tracked in or settles out of the air. Qualities like sound absorption, slip resistance, and soil-trapping ability makes it the most desirable floor covering in many buildings. Ultimately, however, even the best-maintained carpet must be thoroughly cleaned to empty the “sink.”

This is where our IICRC-trained technicians come in. They have the equipment, training and experience not only to empty the “sink,” but also to restore the color and beauty of commercial carpet while improving overall indoor environmental quality in the building.

Unknown to most commercial operators, the upholstered furniture in their offices or businesses experience a great deal more soiling and wear and tear. Commercial upholstery should be cleaned at least annually by a professional cleaning service that knows how to remove maximum soil, perhaps semi-annually in heavy use situations. The increased use life of the upholstery and the savings in productivity will pay for the cost of cleaning.
