Implementing a carpet cleaning program into a local business

06 Sep 2017 8:16 AM | Anonymous
As a houseman at a locally owned hotel, I recognize the importance and benefits of implementing a carpet cleaning program, which would be performed either weekly or bi-monthly depending on numerous factors.  The method I would select as to how to implement a carpet cleaning plan into this business is as follows. I would begin by conducting a needs analysis; walking around the property and mapping out areas that have carpet. Following the analysis, I would perform a deep vacuuming of all the carpeted areas, which would remove loose dust and dirt, especially in areas of the property that see frequent levels of high traffic. In addition to deep vacuuming, I would often perform routine vacuuming on a frequent basis as it is of great benefit because it will prevent dust and other potentially harmful particles from seeping far into the carpet.

Understanding how to spot clean carpet and deep clean carpet are essential components when implementing a carpet cleaning program into a business. Spot cleaning and stain removal can usually be completed with a washcloth, warm water, and a detergent that is bleach free. Since many hotel properties (including ours) often experience high traffic during normal daytime hours, I would utilize this technique to clean areas that would require immediate attention during these times. For after-hours applications, and to simply perform routine carpet maintenance, I would utilize deep cleaning techniques which would require rental of a larger carpet cleaning or carpet steam cleaning machine. Performing this task on a weekly or bi-monthly basis would not only prolong the life of the carpet, but enhance its appearance as well.
