Now more than ever your clients and guest are looking at cleanliness. How will your business fare?

The appearance of your business is one of the most important and powerful tools. First impressions are everything, so make sure you take the necessary time to develop a good one.

Imagine you’re walking into a business to meet with a financial advisor to plan your retirement. The doormat is filthy, there is dust on every surface, and there is a stale odor in the air. The trash can is overflowing and there are empty fast food bags littering the desktops. Your natural instinct would be to turn around and walk out. No way you’re trusting these people with your retirement!

Now imagine you walk into a similar business. The doormat looks brand new, the floor is neatly swept and vacuumed, and the air has a refreshing scent. Not only is the trash can empty, but the can itself is clean. The desktops are tidy and free of any dust or garbage. Now this is a group of professionals!

Importance of a Clean Business

Generally speaking, humans are visual beings that rely heavily on what they see. This reason is why first impressions are so important. The image you portray to your customers is the first thing that they see. In addition, this is how they will view the quality of work your business produces. 

While it may not be true, a messy-looking business is associated with lesser quality work. Alternatively, a clean, tidy office is associated with professionalism and people who are experts in their field.  Overall, a good-looking business gives customers and clients confidence in your products and services.

How to Take Care of Your Business’s Appearance

In order to keep your business’s appearance to a high standard, there are a few things you need to do regularly. The most obvious is to reduce the clutter that may accumulate in common areas. Take care of things that accumulate in hallways, stairs, and other walkways. Keep these areas clear of clutter to drastically improve the image of your business very quickly. If you have a waiting room, this area should be constantly checked and maintained. Check for garbage, make sure the trash bin is not full, bust out the vacuum if there is dirt or crumbs, and organize any reading material. Empty trash cans if they are above 75% full. Lastly, keep the trash bin itself clean. These subtle things make a big difference in the overall appearance of your business. 

Dust & Dirt Removal

No matter how much we clean, dust and dirt seem to accumulate everywhere. Unfortunately, these are some of the most visual things that make your business look like it hasn’t been taken care of. Luckily, regular cleaning can effectively remove the dust and dirt from your office to keep it looking the best it can. Frequent vacuuming is the best way to reduce this mess as well as keep the air clean and safe for employees and visitors to your business. To learn more about the health benefits of vacuuming and dusting, read our post on this topic!

Frequency of Cleaning to Improve Your Business’s Appearance

Depending on what kind of business you have, your cleaning needs may vary. Generally speaking, many areas need regular or daily cleaning, while other areas only require it periodically. Some areas that require daily cleaning maintenance are any areas where food is prepared or consumed. This is to keep employees safe and healthy. Some of these areas include an office kitchen, coffee areas, lunch rooms, and break rooms. Refrigerators need to be cleaned and sanitized weekly and microwaves and stove tops need to be cleaned daily. This may seem tedious, but it only takes a few seconds of your day if regularly kept up on, and the health of your employees is at stake!

Potential Harm if You Don’t Clean

Putting it bluntly, if you don’t keep your office clean you could be jeopardizing potential customers and therefore potential profits. Due to the strong correlation between clean and professional, it is a must to clean your office. Offshore Janitorial Services & Commercial Cleaning makes sure that your business is always presentable and consistently clean. We strive to make sure the image of your business portrays that it is as professional and trustworthy as you are.

Regular carpet cleaning keeps floors looking and smelling great, as well as extends the life of your carpets. Whether at home or at the office, organic cleaning is the way to go.

Whether you’re talking about a house or office, carpet cleaning is an important part of regular maintenance. Everyone has walked into a business and seen big, ugly stains on the carpet. Right upon entering, you immediately have negative thoughts about the business. If you can’t keep a carpet clean, what does that say about their products and services? 

A first impression is crucial in almost all aspects of life, which doesn’t exclude business. Carpet maintenance plays a large role in your overall business appearance because it easily traps dirt and dust. This dirt and dust can get stirred up from movement and foot traffic, causing it to spread and create a mess across your entire office. To prevent this from happening you need to regularly clean and maintain your carpets, especially heavily trafficked areas. Not only does this keep your business looking great, but it extends the life of your carpet. Overall, this saves you money in the long run.

Importance of Carpet Cleaning

Offshore Carpet Cleaning & Janitorial Services knows what it takes to properly care for your carpets, which means there are three levels of cleaning that need to be considered. These cover both short and long term care for your carpets. Varying in intensity, these cleaning methods will keep your carpets as clean as possible while extending their life.

Daily Maintenance

Vacuuming is one of the best methods for cleaning carpets. This should be done on a daily basis, even if the carpets don’t appear to need it. Small dirt and dust particles get trapped and hidden in the fibers of the carpet, making it dirtier then it appears. Vacuuming is a quick and effective way to remove these surface-level dirt particles in order to keep the carpets clean, as well as the air. To learn more about vacuuming and dusting and its health benefits, make sure to read our post on it! 

In the case that something is spilled on your carpet, it should be given immediate attention. The best time to clean up a spill is soon after it happens before the liquid dries. After it is dried, it is embedded into the fibers of the carpet making it harder to remove. Apply a carpet cleaning solution to the spill and allow it to sit for a few minutes before using an extracting tool for best results.

Interim Carpet Cleaning

The second level of cleaning is interim carpet cleaning. This is cleaning done every few months, such as quarterly or every six months. This level of cleaning is more intense, removing more of the deep-seated dirt. 

RCF Commercial Cleaning understands the balance between saving money and keeping a clean work environment. Interim carpet cleaning is a cost effective way to take care of your carpet to keep it looking newer for longer. 

The RCF process uses a slow-spinning rotary machine with a cotton looped bonnet. The spinning bonnet agitates soil and dirt from the top of the carpet, removing it to leave behind cleaner and brighter looking carpet. 

All carpeted surfaces should have interim carpet cleaning done at least once every six months. Heavily trafficked areas such as hallways require it more often to effectively prolong the life of the carpet. 

Deep Cleaning

The third and final level of carpet cleaning is deep cleaning. RCF recommends that the average business gets this done at least once a year. Using a high end commercial carpet cleaning machine, all carpeted surfaces are cleaned. Wall to wall, the carpet is agitated and extracted using hot water and suction. This leaves your carpet looking and feeling brand new while putting life back into it.

Offshore Carpet Cleaning and Janitorial Services: Your Partner in Success

Cleaning

The process of removing dirt and debris from surfaces.

In other words, cleaning is simply removing the stuff you can see.

Though chemicals are not typically involved, the cleaning process reduces the presence of germs by 80%.

Cleaning should be performed on a consistent basis in all areas of a business or home.

Sanitizing

Reduces the presence of germs to a level deemed as acceptable by public health authorities.

It is recommended to consistently sanitize in areas where there is contact with food such as kitchens and dining areas

Disinfecting

Kills and eliminates viruses and bacteria at a proven rate of 99.999%.

It is highly recommended to disinfect areas that are in contact with contaminants and bodily fluids such as bathrooms, and all frequently touched areas such as door handles, light switches, faucet handles, desks, keyboards, etc.

Remember, this sanitizing and disinfecting process is not effective if you haven’t cleaned first.

Disinfectants can’t destroy germs that are under too much dirt and debris!

Offshore specializes in organic deep cleaning of floors, carpets and upholsteries.

It’s common to overlook the flooring and carpeting in your office, retail space, or facility, but it’s something all business owners, supervisors, and property managers need to pay attention to. Floor care and general cleanliness in the workplace make a big impression on your customers and team members. Plus, along the Jersey shore and beaches in South Jersey there is high seasonal traffic where all eyes are on you and first impressions are everything.

Professional floor care specialists will keep your business sparkling and help you spot trouble areas. They can address problems early before they become expensive maintenance issues. With new COVID-19 CDC guidelines in place across the country, it’s more important than ever to focus on upkeep and proper sanitation. Using organic effective solutions to deep clean and sanitize can make all the difference to staff and clients.

You may assume that your staff or regular cleaning service is taking adequate care of your flooring, but that might not be the case. Great floor care requires more than just vacuuming, sweeping, and mopping; when you work with a professional the results will speak for themselves. 

Why is it so important to get the professional in South Jersey

Here are a few business savvy reasons to consider an ongoing maintenance plan with a professional floor care contractor like Offshore Carpet Cleaning and Janitorial Services.

Send a clear message to your customers and staff members that you value your space and that appearance and cleanliness are an important part of your business operations. Professional floor care companies will make sure that your floors are finished and sparkling throughout the year.

Cleaner and More Presentable

Get a Professional Assessment
There is nothing more reassuring than having an expert to consult with. Most commercial floor care companies offer free assessments and walkthroughs. They may catch issues or problems that you missed or overlooked. It never hurts to ask a professional for assistance!

Workplace Safety  
Proper floor care maintenance is vital to maintaining a safe workplace for your team members and a clean and healthy environment for your customers. Hiring professionals to maintain your flooring also reduces the risks of slips/falls and subsequent liability and compensation cases. Make sure your commercial flooring partner is licensed, bonded, and insured for the work they are performing.

Cost Effectiveness 
It’s far more affordable to have preventative maintenance performed on your flooring and carpeting than it is to replace it altogether, often much sooner than would have been necessary with the proper precautions. Save money in the long run by partnering with a professional floorcare company.

Superior Equipment
It’s likely your business does not own the expensive machinery and specialty tools needed to service flooring at a professional level. For example, each type of flooring (marble, terrazzo, concrete, wood, vinyl, rubber, ceramic) requires specific processes to maintain it.

Commercial floorcare companies offer a range of specialty services that will extend the life of your flooring and make your business shine.

TIPS FOR FACILITY MANAGERS OF COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS

As a facility manager, asset preservation is high on your list of priorities. You’re also responsible for hiring the companies that will care for the building assets, such as heating and air conditioning contractors and janitorial companies. When repairs are required, it’s your job to see that they’re done in a timely and cost-effective manner. You assess damage, determining if it’s done by the tenant or normal wear and tear.

All of these duties relate directly to the preservation of the commercial building and its assets. Some of those assets include the hard surface flooring, carpeting and woodwork. The assets within the building have a life expectancy, but are you ensuring that they’re meeting (or exceeding) their anticipated life span? Here are some tips that will contribute to your building’s asset preservation, saving time and money in the long run.

Carpet

Carpeting is a big investment, particularly if you’ve got a lot of square footage to cover. There are many different grades of carpet available at many different price points, but regardless of the choice you make, it’s a big expenditure. It’s in your best interest to make the carpet last as long as possible, so you don’t have to drop a lot of cash replacing it earlier than you anticipated.

Your janitorial service might be doing the daily cleaning, but are they equipped to do the maintenance that will help extend the life of your carpets? A good service will not only offer yearly deep cleaning, but they’ll provide a schedule for periodic maintenance cleaning for high traffic areas that become quickly soiled. By scheduling the maintenance and pricing it out ahead of time, you will be able to budget accordingly.

Hard Floor Surfaces

Hard floors can last for many years when they’re cared for properly. If you don’t maintain them properly, it will cost a bundle to replace, especially if it’s high end flooring such as granite or marble. Your janitorial service should be able to help you keep your hard floors clean and free of debris, and offer suggestions to protect them from traffic and wear and tear.

When you’re choosing a janitorial service, be sure that they’re properly trained in hard floor care. Your service should have the right equipment to care for a variety of hard floor surfaces, including but not limited to:

• Ceramic tile
• Stone
• Concrete
• VCT tile
• Rubber
• Vinyl
• Wood

Windows

Maintaining your building’s window goes beyond appearance. Of course, you want them to look clean, but you also want them to last for years to come. Failure to properly clean the tracks, seals, and frames can result in degeneration, which might result in costly repairs and an increase in your energy bills. In addition, if your landscape company allows sprinklers to spray windows regularly, you can end up with hard water stains that eventually pit the windows, which no amount of cleaning can fix.

Your windows are visible to anyone walking past your building; it’s important that you make a positive impression on passers-by as well as people who come inside. A janitorial service should utilize top-of-the-line equipment to keep your windows in great shape for years to come, preventing the need to replace them prematurely.

Preserving Additional Assets

Your windows and floors might be the top of your asset preservation list, but they’re not where it ends. Consider the following:

Wood Surfaces — From baseboards to built-ins, your wood surfaces should be carefully cared for; a qualified, well-trained janitorial service will not just keep them dust-free, but also maintain their natural beauty with the proper cleaners, preventing cracking and damage.

Upholstery — Your furniture and draperies should be regularly deep-cleaned to eliminate the need to replace them frequently; in addition to standard wear-and-tear, there are some pieces that get more use than others.

For example, the chairs in your reception areas probably get more use than the rarely-visited conference room. Your janitorial service can make a schedule for deep cleaning that will ensure that the spots that get the most use will be cleaned with greater frequency.

Stone and Marble Surfaces — If your building has stone or marble surfaces, you need a service that understands the unique methods that will preserve and protect your surfaces for years to come. Trained janitorial staff will know that natural stone and marble requires specialty cleansers as well as gentle treatment with soft cloths. They’ll keep your surfaces free from scratches and other abrasions that can detract from the appearance.

Stainless Steel Surfaces— Stainless steel requires very particular handling, and your janitorial service should understand the proper way to clean it. Stainless steel sinks, refrigerators, drinking fountains, and elevators can be damaged when cleaners don’t use techniques that are specific to the material to get the job done. Certain cleaning supplies might scratch or permanently dull the finish, shortening the lifespan of the item; additionally, failure to properly clean sinks or drinking fountains can result in hard water deposits.

It’s vital that you preserve your investment by partnering with a janitorial service that will not just keep it clean, but also help you to create a schedule for more intensive maintenance that will put you on the path of proper asset preservation.

Looking for a commercial carpet cleaning company to help you keep your business clean? If so, you may be overwhelmed by the selection available to you. Many small business owners venture into carpet cleaning because they assume it is an easy industry to work in. This floods the market and makes it difficult for other business owners like you to sort the good from the bad. Here are some tips to help you find the perfect commercial carpet cleaning company for your business.

Look for Experience

Some cleaning processes do not require a lot of experience to master, but that is not the case with carpet cleaning. Using the wrong chemicals or skipping over a crucial step could leave a carpet wet, dirty, sticky, or discolored beyond repair. Look for a carpet cleaning company that has been in business for a while, and don’t be afraid to ask for references. Doing so could greatly reduce the stress you go through later on.

Consider Scheduling and Dry Times

This is a simple factor that is easy to overlook, but you need to make sure the carpet cleaning is not going to interrupt your customers. Try to find a carpet cleaning company that can work after hours so your customers do not have to see them on the job. Also look for a company that has fast-dry cleaning equipment to minimize the time you are unable to work in the building. Some cleaning products must try overnight to be effective, so you want to make sure you won’t have to wait that long.

Consider Organic Cleaning

Organic or green cleaning is worth considering for your business. Not only does it give you a “Green” certification following with your other business practices, but it also ensure a safe environment for your staff and customers. Sanitizing and cleaning with 100% natural solutions is the best for all!

Remember, You Deserve the Best!

Above all else, make sure you work with a company that treats you like the special client you truly are. For example, we provide a 24 hour follow-up for all of our carpet cleaning jobs at RJC Enterprises, just to make sure that the carpets look great when we’re finished with them. Little details like this will go a long way in helping you feel like you’re making a wise investment. Find the best commercial carpet cleaning company near you, and if you’re in the Maryland area, don’t hesitate to give us a call.

After a long winter the inside isn’t the only area that needs to be spruced up! Lot’s of dirt, leaves and mold accumulate too!

Any beautiful outdoor space can start to look dull over time. That’s because combinations of heat, cold, and rain cycles, along with general wear and tear, can cause these areas to fade and look unattractive. Luckily all you need is to provide your outdoor spaces with a little care and attention, and you can quickly spruce up commonly overlooked outdoor spaces. Before you know it, you’ll have them back in great working for the season:

Outdoor Furniture, Pavers, Sidewalks, Decks And More

Some of the most neglected items in an outdoor space include outdoor rugs, cushions for lawn furniture, and umbrellas. While it may seem that these items are unimportant, they have a big impact on the aesthetics of your outdoor space.

You better believe that these seemingly small things can affect how customers perceive your business. To keep them looking great, you should thoroughly vacuum your textiles to remove dirt, bugs, and leaves.

However, if you notice spots and stains that just won’t go away, then a deeper cleaning may be necessary. You should refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for guidance. Throwing furniture covers in the wash from time to time is an easy way to ensure they’re always ready for the season.

Fixtures Get Built Up Dirt Too

Outdoor light fixtures and fans easily collect dust and dirt that leave them looking dingy and cause your space to look like it’s in total disrepair. The good news is that an occasional deep cleaning can make a huge difference and make these items easier to maintain.

Be sure to dust and scrub outdoor light fixtures and fans as needed. You can use a scrub brush and a bucket of soapy water to clean up other items like decorative art and flower pots.

Refresh Your Finishes

Need to restore your finishes to their former glory? You can remove dirt and dust by rinsing, scrubbing, and brushing your finishes, including wrought iron, metal, aluminum, or wicker furniture.

Don’t forget to add a fresh coat of sealant or a rust-preventative layer of paint to protect your finishes and other surfaces from chipping and appearing dull.

Cleaning a Wide Range of Surfaces

If you want to get rid of dirt and grime, sweeping your outdoor space with a sturdy broom is a good place to start. But you will also likely need the help of a pressure washing tool to thoroughly clean patio areas, decks, sidewalks, siding, exterior windows, tables, and more!

When cleaning these surfaces, make sure you use a power washer with a detergent tank that can quickly and efficiently remove grime and rinse it away. You can repeat the process if needed to achieve your desired outcome.

Every season requires commercial property owners to conduct some sort of outdoor maintenance. If you need commercial cleaning services for your outdoor areas, Offshore Carpet Cleaning and Janitorial Services can help with even your most complicated projects.

Outsourcing your cleaning and maintenance services lets you focus again on running your business. Rest assured, our team of experts will make certain that your outdoor space is cleaned to your exact specifications.

Additional services offered include Soft Wash Power washing, window cleaning and virtually any area that needs to be address.

Having your upholstery professionally cleaned is a great way to prolong the life of your furniture and to get some of the brand new feeling back- even if just for a while. But as with any investment, you want your upholstery cleaning to last as long as possible and look as fresh as it did when it got cleaned. Putting plastic covers on your furniture will go a long way toward preserving it, but who wants to live that way? Here are some tips to help you keep upholstery clean without resorting to plastic.

Arm Rest & Slip Covers

These help to protect the most wear-prone parts of your furniture without having to sit on plastic. You can sacrifice these items to daily use, as they absorb the brunt of the wear, oils, and dirt. Staying vigilant about keeping these items in place will go a long way toward preserving your furniture.

Regular Light Cleaning

Give your furniture a light cleaning on a regular basis. Dirt and oils will erode the fabric if left in- especially when furniture is used regularly. A dust buster and a moistened rag are good enough for most fabrics.

Use Scotchgard

This is a great product that basically serves as an invisible plastic sheet. Scotchgard is a plasticizing agent that seeps into the fabric and prevents dirt and oils from working their ways into the fine fibers where it can grind and decompose your upholstery from the inside.
