There is the normal in-and-out traffic to take account of, greasy food particles that end up on the floor, seasonal mayhem rain (all the time in Ireland), snow, slush and salt. Keeping your entrance-way inviting, clean and is hard enough, but the winter months can be a real nightmare. Not only can slips, falls etc. harm your customers, employees and suppliers your business could suffer seriously financial losses through claims.
How do we Overcome some of the Challenges
Keeping grouted tiles clean is possibly one of the biggest challenges. If you rely on traditional mop cleaning, you risk slips and falls, because the floors don't dry quick enough. Plus it just doesn’t keep the grout lines clean. When you mop, all the dirt builds up in the grout lines it often smears. If we don't use microfiber mops you can leave a dirty hazardous floor behind (Adding to insurance costs). Mops also need to be laundered regularly not just to keep odours down but to avoid spreading films of dirt to the floor surface. .Why Use Mats
Well What can be done
For me lots I believe you need to implement a system that is practical, flexible and that can be multifunctional for your business. To do this we have to sit back and starts with the basics are we cleaning for appearance? Is there health concerns? these questions and more have to be asked. When we have ascertained the size and type of flooring to be cleaned we need to consider if there is any special chemical requirements
Then its time to bring in the professionals, it’s only then that we can decide if our budget is sufficient to give us the best cost in use results. Whilst meeting the demands of our business, once this is established we can then decide if the investment in machinery will pay dividends long term.
So as you can see there really is plenty to think about. Why delay? Call us out today and we will solve your entrance way problem
