Kawartha Clean Team, cleaning maintenance plan

Maintenance Plan and Schedule – the five elements
A customized comprehensive carpet care program consists of five elements:
1.Soil Containment- isolation of soil entering the building using mats at entrances.
2.Vacuuming– scheduled frequency for removal of dry soil using a CRI approved “Green Label” vacuum.
3.Spot and Spill Removal System - using professional spot removal techniques.
4.Interim Cleaning – scheduled frequency appearance cleaning for all traffic areas.
5.Restorative Cleaning– scheduled frequency deep cleaning to remove residues and trapped soils.
There are some conditions where appearance change must be expected. In areas where
the oily material from asphalt sealers is tracked into the building, carpet and other
flooring may become yellowed over time. Check the traffic lanes often forslight dulling
of color; this indicates a build up of soil. It is virtually impossible to remove all of this
material once it has penetrated the fiber of any carpet. Entrance mats and scheduled
cleaning can reduce this phenomenon. Areas where large amounts of sandy soil enter the
building may become dull in appearance over time. This is due to abrasion of the fiber
surface, affecting the reflection of light. Frequent vacuuming helps to minimize this problem.
A thoughtfully designed and implemented maintenance program performed by qualified
personnel, properly equipped and trained, is essential for optimal long-term performance.
If you don’t maintain it, you can’t expect it to stay clean.
