How a shiny floor will make your business more profitable

How a shiny floor will make your business more profitable

Did you know that a great looking entrance floor accounts for 80% of a customer’s first impression when they walk in to your business? Shiny, well-maintained floors directly impact how a customer sees the overall cleanliness of your building, but most importantly how they perceive the quality of your business, your merchandise or your service. Due to the long winter and harsh weather throughout the Elk Valley, your business may be suffering from wear and tear on the floors. Spring and summer are the best times to implement a comprehensive floor care program starting with restorative stripping and finishing. Once you have a shiny floor you will want to start thinking of how to protect and maintain it in the most cost-effective manner.   Goldstar Cleaning Services suggests three stage floor care plan: 1. Daily maintenance The most important step – make sure you have sufficient entry mats, and clean the floor first with a dust mop or vacuum and then a damp mop to keep the dirt and grime from being tracked through the building. 2. Periodic maintenance Every month (ideally) or every quarter (at a minimum) you should scrub floors and and re-coat with 1 or 2 layers of finish product, to help protect them from wear and tear. 3. Restorative procedures After one to two years, the floor will be showing visible signs of wear and tear which can no longer be treated with maintenance. This is when you should plan a professional stripping and re finishing procedure to ensure your floor reaches its maximum lifespan.   How Goldstar Cleaning Services can help The most important element in a successful floor care program is developing and maintaining the optimum service schedule. Having an understanding of the specific flooring material throughout your building and its care history will help you decide what is best for your business.
