Those unsightly and annoying spills and stains on your carpet can truly be an embarrassment in the workplace, despite the many efforts you put forth to keep the workplace clean. The most common spills obviously happen more often than you’d like and leave you with a mess. If your workplace in the Rochester, Minnesota area could use a deep carpet cleaning, contact ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning. We’ll ease your pain and handle all of your carpet cleaning needs!

Unfortunately, regardless of how careful people try to be, spills happen. Follow a few simple steps to prevent permanent staining of your carpets in the workplace:

1. Coffee. Whether the coffee comes from an employee cafeteria, home, or the break room, a good percentage of your employees drink coffee in the morning and throughout the day. When coffee is spilled, it immediately starts soaking into the fibers and leaves a wet and stained area. Don’t stress. Simply grab a paper towel or napkin and apply pressure to the area to soak up the liquid. Avoid scrubbing – that will only spread the stain.
2. Wet and dirty shoes/boots. Winter in the upper Midwest brings snow, ice, and slush which leaves your employees and clients with dirty, messy, and wet shoes. When it’s grime-time, vacuum regularly, but also enlist the help of a professional carpet cleaning service to keep your carpet lasting longer.
3. Wine and food stains. Have a break room, waiting room, or other areas where food is involved? What about the office party that serves wine and hors d’oeuvres? The parties are fun, the food is good, but the wine that spilled on the carpet is now a mess. As with coffee spills, blot the wine-stained area and apply pressure. If it’s a large amount, you may need to apply a small amount of soda water repeatedly until the stain lightens. Once the party is over, contacting a carpet cleaning service will ensure your carpet is correctly treated, cleaned, and dried.
4. Ink. The latest technology is great, but the ink cartridge that explodes everywhere when being replacing isn’t so great. If this happens, grab the vacuum and vacuum up what you can. Any remaining toner should be wiped with a dry cloth until you can get a professional carpet cleaning company in to complete the cleanup.
