Last month, our Bath technician, Ollie attended a local business premises to carry out a short survey as the customer had contacted us about having the carpets & hard flooring cleaned in their office & shop. Carrying out a survey is a great way to determine the condition & specific requirements of a customers hard floor & with this being a commercial environment, it means we can tailor both the quote & the method of cleaning to suit the business needs.
Following on from the successful survey, Ollie went back this week with fellow technician, Joanne & spent a sunny Monday carrying out the office clean. This involved cleaning the carpets which totalled 53 m2 & 2 long flights of stairs plus 79 m2 of engineered wood floor.
Our method for cleaning the carpets involved:
Dry extraction/vacuuming – This involves using a commercial vacuum to remove surface debris
Spot/stain treatments, as necessary – Treating stains with a specific solution that is left to dwell to break down the deposits
Eco-sanitising pre-spray – A sanitiser that is tough on dirt & bacteria yet still kind to the environment
Rotary agitation – A rotary machine is used to agitate the carpet & bring any debris at the bottom of the pile to the surface. The machine also applies a cleaning solution deep into the pile to provide a thorough clean prior to extraction
Traditional rinse extraction – This extracts all the remaining dirt from the carpet as well as the water & cleaning solutions
This completes the carpet cleaning process & they looked cleaner & fresher as a result of Ollie & Joanne’s hard work!
I love the attention to detail that this video reflects – This office space also doubles as a jewellery making studio & there were lots of little bits of metal embedded in the carpets. This video shows Ollie removing the metal prior to cleaning using scissors to tweezer them out!
Once all the carpets were cleaned, it was time for Joanne & Ollie to tackle the hard flooring. In this instance, it was engineered wood that they would be cleaning.
The process the technicians used for cleaning this floor was the use of a rotary machine, wet vac & to finish the floor was buffed dry.
1 – The rotary machine uses rotating pads to apply a cleaning solution which is then gently agitated onto the floor surface.
2 – The wet vac then vacuums up all the water & cleaning solutions as well as any remaining debris.
3 – The pads on the rotary machine are then changed & the floor is buffed dry to give it a gleaming finish.
This was a great team effort from Ollie & Joanne on one of the first warmer days that we have had this year. They worked so well together that they are going back again this week to clean this customers shop, check out our next blog later in the week to see how they got on!
