OK, so it’s May, and we are definitely not into summer yet, but the blossom is beginning to bloom and we are heading into the warmer months (hopefully)!
Spring cleaning is well known for taking the time to deep clean and de-clutter, but what about summer cleaning? What should we pay attention to at this time of the year?
Office or workplace cleaning isn’t often top of the priorities, but as the warmer summer months approach, they will bring with them increased humidity, dust and dirt, which needs to be kept under control so you have a clean working environment.
Here are a few of the key areas to pay attention to:
- Floors – whether you have a carpet or wooden floors, now is a good time to give them a deep clean.
- Windows – as the sun shines through, it highlights all the streaks and smears left by summer rain showers so clean them regularly, both inside and out.
- Window blinds/curtains – often overlooked, the fabric window hangings can harbour dirt and pollutants so give them a refreshing clean.
- Office desks – summer is the worst time for allergies caused by pollen and dust so clean all the desks regularly with a disinfectant to keep your staff in tip-top form.
- Comfy chairs – if you have any soft, comfy chairs in a reception or waiting area, they can harbour a lot of dust. Give them a good vacuum and consider cleaning them with shampoo to bring them back to their original brightness to create a great first impression.
If you need a hand with any of the above to keep your Leicestershire office clean this summer, please contact us to ask about our regular office cleaning service or one-off deep clean service.
Until next time,
