Entrance Mats: Keeping Your Office Floors Clean


Don’t worry about people tracking outside debris and protect you carpets and floors with an entrance mat.

Entrance mats should be placed at every entrance of your office as a first line of defense so that you can wipe your feet and protect your carpets and floors.

Entrance mats collect dirt and moisture so they are not tracked around your office. You will be surprised how an entrance mat can benefit you and your business. Using an entrance mat will save money on carpet cleaning services by keeping your carpets clean.

An entrance mat will prevent wear and tear around high traffic entrance areas of your office.

An entrance mat is also a green alternative to using cleaning chemicals to keep your carpets and floors clean. 
The choice of mat is also important as there are many different kinds of mats each with a certain purpose.

For example you will want to have a shoe scrapper mat outside to remove snow and dirt from your feet.

Then use an absorbent mat on the inside to soak up what every moister is left.

If you are worried about the tacky look of entrance mats keep in mind they are customizable with many different colors.

You can even custom order one with the logo of you company.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT COMMERCIAL CLEANING SERVICE – BY BRIAN HARROD


Customer service is very important because no person or company is perfect and mistakes can happen on the job. By inquiring about customer service you can find out how the cleaning company deals with a complaint

Choosing the right commercial cleaning service can be a difficult task, not only do you have to make sure that they can fulfill your cleaning needs, there is also a level of trust needed in letting them enter your office building, retail store or department store.

Here are some questions to consider when choosing a commercial cleaning service company or janitorial service to ensure value, security and experience.
How long have they been in business?
The longer the cleaning company has been in business the more loyal customers they probably have. The more loyal customers they have the more reliable and trustworthy the company is. Also it shows that they are experienced and might know a few tricks of the trade that newer commercial cleaning companies might not be aware of.
What cleaning services do they provide?
You should research what cleaning services they provide because it is important that the cleaning company can meet your needs. Be sure to learn about all the services the cleaning company has listed.  Some businesses don’t realize that the cleaning company that they are paying for window cleaning or carpet cleaning might also offer floor waxing services or janitorial services.
Are they bonded and insured?
This is very important because it covers you from liability if damage is done to your home or property. Workers compensation insurance will cover the cleaning company’s employees should they get injured on the job.
Do they have references?
Ask for a list of references. Customer loyalty is very important in the commercial cleaning industry and as a result a list of references is a great way to determine what loyal customers are saying about a commercial cleaning company.

THE IMPORTANCE OF CLEANING YOUR YOGA STUDIO


Yoga should take place in clean and relaxing environment so you can exercise and achieve peace of mind. Maintaining a clean floor space and keeping your mats bacteria free will not only provide a better yoga experience, but a healthier and cleaner one as well. Also by keeping your windows clean you will be adding ambient lighting to your studio which will make your customers have a more enjoyable experience and attract more customers

Yoga is an activity that teaches spiritual, mental and physical discipline. Yoga studios are becoming ever more popular around the country as a place for people to exercise and find peace of mind. Unfortunately yoga studios often require constant cleaning to ensure a healthy germ free environment.

The New York Times did a study linking many bacterial, fungal and viral infections to unclean yoga facilities. Cleaning and maintenance are important for any type of building, but for recreational facilities such as yoga studios, providing a clean healthy environment is important for your customers.
Yoga unlike other forms of exercise takes place on the floor and mats in particular. So priority number one is to make sure that your floor space and yoga mats are cleaned very frequently.

We recommend having your floors professionally cleaned and washed on a regular basis.

This way it does not become you or your employee’s duty to wash the floors. Many people who practice yoga on a regular basis use their own mats so they don’t have to share communal yoga equipment.

Yoga mats can be cleaned with a machine wash and a light detergent, but communal yoga mats also need to be disinfected after every use. We recommend mixing vinegar, water and essential oil in a spray bottle to create a green cleaning disinfectant.

Collecting communal yoga mats and then spraying them after each session will keep your yoga mats clean for the next user.

Maintaining a clean floor space along with clean yoga mats will not only make your yoga studio more appealing to its customers it will provide a healthier environment for them to exercise.
A yoga studio should be a place for meditation and relaxation, thus ambient lighting is essential. Cleaning your windows regularly is great way to increase the amount of sunlight that enters your building.

It’s a fact that people generally feel happier and more energized when it is sunny outside as opposed to cloudy or rainy weather.

The same idea applies to your yoga studio. The extra sunlight will create more positive attitudes while people practice their yoga. Clean windows will also make your yoga studio look more appealing from the outside.

People who are driving or walking by your business only have a small window of time to look at your yoga studio and get their first impressions. Overall window cleaning is a great way to add ambient lighting to your yoga studio and make it look more appealing to those passing by.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose a janitorial company?


A janitorial service should be chosen by first defining needs and wants and developing a plan to meet those needs and wants at the most economical price.

If cost is your most important factor, make this known when calling potential service providers. There are many inexpensive service providers available, however, with lower costs you may be sacrificing quality, consistency and reliability. If quality, consistency and reliability are important to you, then you should look for a company with high standards in their janitorial services while having a management team, processes, and infrastructure to provide you with your desired standard of service. Supervision, service and infrastructure do have a cost. Advanced Building Maintenance may not be the most inexpensive service provider, however, you will not find the quality of service we offer for less. Our company provides all of these qualities at a competitive price.


How much will the service cost me?


The cost depends on the level of service you request and the type of services needed to meet your requests. The largest driver of cost in cleaning service industry is the cost of labor (including payroll taxes and insurances). Cost of service is based on how many labor hours it requires to effectively and thoroughly clean your space. The following are some insightful questions to ask: How many labor hours it should take to perform the job? How much supervision will my account receive? How are customer service issues handled?
