How Often Should You Clean Commercial Carpet?

It depends.  How much traffic do you have?  Is there food served in any of the areas?  Are children present? The EPA recommends that offices be cleaned every 1-6 months depending on the amount of traffic and whether or not food is served.

Carpet manufacturers will recommend every 2 weeks-6 months depending on the same conditions. Call us at 444-0811 to set up a FREE Flooring Consultation and Inspection.  We will inspect your floors and help you decide how often to clean and what method is best for your situation.
