Let’s clear the air (literally).

When it comes to workplace cleanliness, there’s a lot of misinformation out there. Here are some of the biggest myths we hear—and the truth behind them:

Myth 1: “You only need to disinfect high-touch surfaces once a week.”
Reality: Bacteria on shared surfaces (like doorknobs, elevator buttons, and keyboards) can double in as little as 20 minutes. Daily disinfection is key in busy environments.

Myth 2: “If it looks clean, it’s clean.”
Reality: Many germs are invisible to the eye. Proper cleaning and disinfection—not just surface wiping—are required to make a space truly hygienic.

Myth 3: “Vacuuming alone is enough for carpets.”
Reality: Dirt, allergens, and even bacteria can get embedded deep within fibers. Routine deep cleaning is essential to maintain air quality and prolong carpet life.

Myth 4: “Hand sanitizer is a substitute for cleaning.”
Reality: Sanitizer reduces germs on hands but doesn’t clean surfaces. Both personal hygiene and regular cleaning protocols are essential for a safe workplace.
Clean doesn’t just happen; it’s intentional.

What other cleaning myths have you heard at your workplace? Let’s bust them together in the comments. 🤔

The way we clean commercial spaces is evolving—and it’s transforming how workplaces stay safe and healthy.

Here are some key trends shaping the cleaning industry in 2025:

1. Electrostatic Disinfecting for Better Coverage
It’s faster, more efficient, and helps reduce cross-contamination risks—ideal for high-traffic workplaces like offices, schools, and healthcare facilities.

2. Green Cleaning Products That Prioritize Safety & Sustainability
Businesses are more conscious than ever about the products used in their spaces.

3. Data-Driven Cleaning Schedules
Instead of a “one-size-fits-all” routine, companies are adopting cleaning schedules informed by foot traffic and usage patterns.

4. Health-Focused Cleaning Protocols
Cleaning is no longer just about appearances. Post-pandemic, the focus has shifted toward hygiene, air quality, and creating healthier work environments that reduce absenteeism and boost employee morale.

These trends aren’t just innovations—they’re becoming expectations for modern workplaces.

📌 Bituminous - Used on concrete, metal, wood, pipes, and parking lots.
📌 Enamel - Ideal for outdoor or high-wear indoor areas.
📌 Oil - Best for interior walls, metals, and wood (not for humid areas).
📌 Latex - Ideal for walls and general surfaces (not good for metal or concrete).

Each paint serves a specific purpose—whether it's indoor durability, exterior weather resistance, or protecting metal from corrosion.

🍂 Back to Business Facility Prep: Ready for the Fall Sprint 🍂

As summer winds down, many organizations enter one of their busiest quarters. For facility managers and business owners, now is the ideal moment to reset—and elevate—your workspace.

Fall is the perfect season for service refreshes:

• Office Cleaning: After months of seasonal traffic and airborne allergens, dust and particulates settle on desks, high-touch surfaces, and breakrooms. A deep cleaning improves air quality and can reduce sick days, boosting productivity and morale.
• Floor Waxing & Hard Surface Maintenance: With increased foot traffic in the fall, preemptive maintenance extends floor life, keeps surfaces safe, and preserves your building’s professional appearance.
• Tile & Grout Cleaning: Entrances, restrooms, and cafeterias often collect embedded dirt over summer. Specialized grout cleaning restores color, improves hygiene, and removes slip hazard buildup.

What a fall facility prep plan typically includes:

1. A consultation to assess foot traffic zones and high-use surfaces.
2. Scheduling deep office cleaning sessions outside of peak hours.
3. Targeted floor care—stripping, waxing, polishing—to prepare for winter wear.
4. Tile & grout work focused on high-traffic corridors and shared spaces.
5. Window cleaning, upholstery care, or post summer sanitizing bumps.

Our team builds custom-fit plans for each client, prioritizing health, appearance, and uptime.

📌 Thinking ahead: How is your facility preparing for post-summer momentum?
