WHY YOU NEED TO CLEAN YOUR CARPETS IN THE FALL

Summer has come to a close and the evening shadows fall a lot sooner and now is the right time to examine the condition of your carpets and rugs.

In some offices, windows can still be left open to let the summer dust and allergens seep in. In other offices, windows are tightly sealed and the AC is continuously running during the summer and circulating the same dusty air throughout, even if there is a filter system. Fall is the perfect time to give your carpets and rugs a steam cleaning along with cleaning your cloth partitions and all soft materials. Carpet Care Systems is trying to, AT THIS TIME OF YEAR, clear your offices of the fecal matter that has been left by dust mites, allergens from pollen, the general grime that has been dragged in on your shoes, plus remove any stains from the spills of summer drinks. Steam cleaning carpets will kill dust mites and remove allergens which in turn will reduce illness and lost work days. And of course create a favourable impression when clients enter your premises.

If your company has completed any renovations this summer check to see if the construction company has not left behind any stains from grease, oil or paint, which will require specialized removers on these kind of spots, before having your carpets cleaned. Has drywall dust, which comes from newly sanded walls, seeped into your carpets? This kind of drywall dust will travel deep into carpet fibres and will need a commercial grade vacuuming before a steam and/or rotary carpet cleaning.

Thinking back to last winter, ask yourself if you had enough mats for your entrances to soak up autumn rains and melting snows. At the same time ask yourself if at the end of last winter did your carpet cleaning company give them a good scrubbing to remove winter stains and let them dry before they put them away for the next fall. Make sure that the mats you have are commercial grade mats, heavy in weight so that they lay flat so clients will not trip over them. They also need to have the proper kind of backing so that they do not easily slide around. Carpet Care Systems will gladly re-clean or supply your company with new mats.

CARPET CARE SYSTEMS will be only too glad to remove from your carpets and rugs all traces of construction dust, allergens and the general grime of summer. Please call 416-247-7311
