Important of a Commercial Carpet Cleaning Company

When you own a business, the health of your employees should be a priority. Indoor pollutants are a major cause of sickness in the business world. A lot of these pollutants can be reduced or eliminated by having the carpets and upholstery regularly cleaned.
As a commercial carpet cleaning company in Mobile, AL we help the businesses in our local area improve their air quality from the standpoint of carpet cleaning. Carpets are wonderful for use in a business setting. They help to give your office a professional appearance, make standing and walking more comfortable, and dampen sound. They also have a few downsides as well.

• Carpet can hold on to microscopic bugs, moisture, dust, and dirt. These items are then circulated through the building by way of the heating and cooling system.
• The impurities in the air that originated in the carpet can compromise the health and productivity of the employees, causing them to miss work and eroding the business profitability. Several illnesses are directly related to the air quality, such as sinus infections, colds, the flu, and asthma.

There are many benefits to having your business carpets commercially cleaned regularly. When you have professional carpet cleaning done by a certified company like us at Carpet Cleaning Nurse's Touch, with services that include regular spill touch-ups and vacuuming, you provide short and long-term health benefits to yourself and your employees. The short-term benefits include removing debris from the carpeting, thus minimizing the chances for it to circulate through the ventilation system. Regular cleaning, in the long-term, helps to keep your fibers of carpet from breaking down prematurely. When the carpet fibers are broken down, they tend to attract dirt and other particles even more.

Another way to improve the quality of your indoor air is to purchase carpeting that emits lower levels of gas. There are also adhesives that emit less. Purchasing these options are environmentally sound.
​
Of course, the other, more noticeable benefit of having your carpets professionally cleaned is their appearance. Your office will look more clean and inviting and, more importantly, improve the health of the people in that space daily.
​
It is recommended that a business have their carpets cleaned at least every six months, but this timeframe can change depending on the kind of business and the amount of daily wear. If your business has the following tracked in regularly, you will need to have your carpets professionally cleaned every four to six months:

•        Salt used in winter to melt ice
•        Residual oil from factories or cars
•        Fine grit and dirt from the outdoors
•        Sand from some production facilities or parking lots
•        Chemicals that are used in manufacturing plants or on grass

Some businesses will naturally have more foot traffic and need more frequent cleanings for their carpet. Also, businesses that primarily care for the elderly or very young fall into this category. These businesses should have their carpets cleaned at least every three months:

•        Medical facilities
•        Nursing homes
•        Daycares
•        Restaurants

There are ways to help reduce the wear and tear on your commercial carpets. You can use protective floor mats in areas with high traffic or where there is food preparation or eating, such as in break rooms. This will help you go a little longer without having to call your professional carpet cleaners.
