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.

Every office setting has experienced at least one of the common stains noted above. When it happens, don’t be discouraged.

Keeping up the professional appearance of your office takes more than just a mop and bucket. It takes time, dedication, and hard work coupled with the proper cleaning products and equipment. Don’t drain your employees by having them complete the janitorial services of your office. Instead, hire a commercial cleaning service. ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning provides janitorial cleaning services in Rochester, MN so you can leave the dirty work to us.

Hiring a professional janitorial cleaning service enhances the professional appearance of your business space and strengthens the morale and productivity of your employees. Don’t know what to look for when hiring a janitorial cleaning service? Follow a few simple tips:

1. Services. What exactly do you need done and how often? Do you simply need someone to vacuum, dust, and clean the restrooms, or do you need more services such as carpet cleaning, window washing, vent cleaning, and more? Check with the cleaning service to see what they can provide to fit your needs and budget.
2. Scheduling. You probably don’t want a cleaning service vacuuming and dusting during business hours. Look for someone willing to work around your schedule and accommodate your needs.
3. Equipment. A simple vacuum cleaner may be enough for your office area, however, if your area is larger, does your simple vacuum remove deeply embedded dirt and debris? Ask the cleaning service what equipment and products they use for a deep clean.
4. Professionalism and reputation. Do your homework and research any reviews on the professionalism of the company. Do they wear uniforms, have a good reputation, and are reliable, or do they clean in torn blue jeans and a baseball cap? The reputation of your company is important, so should the reputation of your cleaning company.
5. Price. Not every office or work area is the same and neither is the price. Ask the cleaning company providing your janitorial services if they have a pricing proposal to fit your needs, not a one-size-fits all.
6. Insurance. It’s important to protect against a fly-by-night cleaning service and a poor reputation that may go with that. Check with your cleaning service and insist they carry insurance in the event of an accident, injury, or legal liability.

If you’re looking for a janitorial cleaning service in the Rochester, MN area, contact ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning.

Carpets cleaned? Check. Break rooms and restrooms cleaned and sanitized? Check. Office dusted, and windows shined? Check. Should be good to open the doors for business, right? Well, maybe not. What about the upholstery? Do your chairs in the lobby and office look dirty and drab? Those window coverings sure look worn. If you think you’ve got it all together but forgot about the upholstery cleaning in Rochester, MN, contact  ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning.

Cleaning the upholstery of your office or workplace is often forgotten and isn’t typically at the top of the cleaning checklist. Dirt, dust, allergens, and bacteria find their way into the fibers of your upholstery and can become a health hazard if left too long. Look for signs of the need for upholstery cleaning and follow a few simple tips:

1. Dirty appearance. If your couch or chairs in your office or lobby look dirty, it may be time to look into upholstery cleaning. Dirt, body oils, sweat, and dust stick to the fabric and add to the dirty-looking appearance.
2. Dirt, moisture, and smoke all get trapped in the fabric of upholstered furniture and tend to linger. A thorough cleaning is the only way to get rid of smells and odors that are unpleasant to the senses.
3. If you notice that you, your employees, or your clients tend to suffer from allergy symptoms when they arrive to work, your upholstery may be the problem. Dust mites, pet dander, germs, bacteria, and allergens thrive in dirty and soiled furniture fabric and make allergies flare.
4. Dirty little hands, spilled liquids, or paw prints from our four-legged friends on furniture is inevitable. Trying to clean stains as soon as they happen reduces the risk of the stain remaining, but it’s impossible to follow these little people and little pets around 24/7/365.

It’s a known fact that we all have good intentions of keeping furniture clean and looking nice, but it typically doesn’t hit the top of the priority list. That’s why it’s important to contact a professional upholstery cleaning service. At ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning we take great pride in helping you achieve the clean and fresh look of your upholstery all the time. Our trained and professional staff has the knowledge, equipment, and products available to not only clean your upholstery but to use the best product for the best result. Our technicians are trained in the different types of fabrics and know what product to use and when to use it. Make upholstery cleaning top of the checklist with upholstery cleaning services from ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning in Rochester, MN. Call us at (507) 281-2494 or visit us here.

 Does your commercial carpet look clean? If you’re not seeing any beverage stains or mud tracked in, you just have to vacuum regularly, and you should be good to go, right? Not quite.

1. Dirt, dust, & grime. When dirt, dust, and grime are tracked in, it ultimately ends up on your carpets and eventually deep down into the fibers. Commercial carpet cleaning can remove this ground in dirt and even extend the lifespan of your carpets!
2. Food & beverages. No matter how hard you try, food and beverage spills happen that leaves stains and damage. This can lead to the growth of bacteria and unpleasant odors.
3. Salt and other chemicals. Midwest winters are tough and require salt, sand, and other chemicals to keep pavement clear of snow and ice. These chemicals can wreak havoc on your carpets, and even if your vacuum regularly, can remain embedded in your carpet fibers far into summer. With commercial carpet cleaning, these and other unwanted debris are thoroughly removed from your carpets.

Vacuuming regularly isn’t enough to keep your commercial carpets looking nice, smelling great, and lasting a long time. That’s why it’s important to have them cleaned by a professional cleaning service at least once a year and more often if you have heavy foot traffic.

When you and your employees work full time, you may feel as if your workplace is your second home. You spend countless hours there, often fewer than you spend with your family. You’ve got the business to run, employees to manage, and clients to serve—the last thing you need on your plate is to keep the office sanitized and looking and smelling clean. ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning understands the need for help and is available to provide janitorial cleaning services to you and your team. Forget the full-time employee and full-time janitorial duties by utilizing the janitorial cleaning services from ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning in Rochester, MN.

Improving efficiency, safety, and the appearance of a business is a top priority. That’s why hiring a janitorial cleaning service can serve and benefit you in countless ways.

1. Ease the burden on yourself and your employees. Let’s be honest, you have enough tasks in your day to accomplish and cleaning and sanitizing shouldn’t be one of them. You want your employees to be able to focus on their job and your clients to ensure they’re receiving the best care and service possible. Let a janitorial cleaning service take care of the cleaning needs.
2. Safe and clean work environment. Keeping the workspace clean is also keeping it safe. If you have a high traffic and volume of customers or clients that come through the door each day, there are, without a doubt, a lot of germs and bacteria that enter as well. While you may think that you and your employees can vacuum, dust, and clean the breakrooms and restrooms every couple of days, there is no comparison to that of a janitorial cleaning service that is trained and efficient to get the job done promptly and correctly.
3. Improve the appearance of your office or business. What clients see when they walk through the door of your business is what they will perceive of your business as well. For example, if you have dirty windows and floors, dusty and unclean furniture, and unsanitary restrooms, your business may be perceived as dirty, cluttered, and inefficient. Make certain that your clients are impressed the second they walk through the doors with a clean and professional atmosphere, so they know they will get the same sort of service from you.
4. Increased productivity. Take a moment to think of how you might work best. Would you thrive in an environment with clutter, unkempt floors and counters, and unsanitary break rooms and restrooms? Or, would you thrive in a work environment that is clean, sanitized, and looking and smelling fresh? Studies have shown that productivity increases and the chances of being able to concentrate in a clean environment rank high, too. Your employees’ well-being is important as well.

If you have felt the effects of trying to be a full-time employee or business owner as well as a full-time janitor, it may be time to consider hiring a janitorial cleaning service.

We’ll take the burden off you so you can focus on what you do best—your work. Contact us today by calling (507) 281-2494 or visit us here.

Maintaining a like-new and feel-good-all-over look for your upholstery can be a real challenge. After all, who has the time to spend on cleaning up spills, vacuuming cushions regularly, and turning and rotating cushions? Adhering to a few simple steps can help to protect and preserve your upholstered furniture, extend its life, and have your office looking and feeling its best to welcome your clients and guests:

1. Clean spills promptly. If you have an office waiting area or lobby, you’re bound to have juice spills from kids and coffee spills from adults. Act promptly after a spill to try and clean it up before it’s absorbed into the fabric. Blot it first and then try to spot clean it with a mild detergent and allow to dry.
2. Vacuum regularly. Having a regular schedule of vacuuming cushions and other upholstery is beneficial to the life of your furnishings. Make an effort to vacuum at least once weekly or as often as you can.
3. Turn cushions. You know that if a cushion is continuously sat on in the same way day after day, indentations occur, and cushions wear to one side or the other. That’s why it’s important to turn and rotate cushions periodically to prevent excessive wear.
4. Make use of armrest and headrest covers. One of the first places to show dirt and wear are the arms and headrest. Make use of the covers that often come with your furniture to prevent the oil from hair and skin as well as the regular dirt that always finds its way to these areas.
5. Contact a professional upholstery cleaner every 1 to 2 years. Do your best to keep ahead of the dirt and stains and contact a professional upholstery cleaner every 1 to 2 years, and more frequently if there’s a lot of use and traffic.

If the furnishings and upholstery in your commercial area are looking drab, dirty, and stained, contact ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning in Rochester, MN for our professional and thorough upholstery cleaning services. We have the experience, products, and tools to get your furniture looking, feeling, and smelling like new again.

Save on labor costs. If you own a business your time is money, and your employees shouldn’t be tasked with doing the cleaning. A professional carpet cleaning service takes the burden off you, so you can enter an office that smells fresh and looks clean.

Cleaning the house can be a dreaded chore. Cleaning the office, however, is probably number one on the list of loathed yet necessary responsibilities. No matter when you schedule it to be done or the employees you appoint to perform this dreaded task, it just never seems to get properly accomplished. If your office is in the Rochester, MN area and in need of janitorial cleaning services, stress no more. Put the myths aside and enjoy the benefits of janitorial cleaning services from ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning in Rochester, MN.

Janitorial cleaning myths are many, but truth be told, hiring a janitorial cleaning service will allow you time to run your business, enjoy life outside of work, and save you money!

1. Myth #1. I can do it myself or have my employees work as a team to have the office shiny clean, free from germs and clutter, and looking and smelling great. Wrong, wrong, and wrong! While kudos go to those with this thought process, running a business typically takes every ounce of time and energy you have. Hiring a janitorial cleaning service can take this burden off of you and your employees so you don’t have to worry about dirty floors, filthy break rooms, cluttered lobbies, or smelly restrooms.
2. Myth #2. I can purchase cleaning products that are just as good as the professionals use to sanitize counters, clean carpets, and clean and wax floors. Sorry, wrong again. Over-the-counter products may leave your office smelling great, but can actually be harmful to your employees, clients, and the environment. Additionally, floor wax bought at your local retailer isn’t commercial grade and won’t look as good or last as long. A janitorial cleaning service utilizes the proper products that are good for your property and the health and wellbeing of your employees and clients. Plus, by using professional-grade cleaning solutions, wax, and equipment, the results will last far longer.
3. Myth #3. I’m saving money by doing the office cleaning myself. Good try. While you may feel you’re saving money, when you consider the need to purchase cleaning products, equipment, and the hours required for you and your staff to perform the tedious work, you’re likely spending more than compared to paying a cleaning service. A cleaning service supplies everything that’s required and you won’t need to worry about a thing.

Put the myths aside and hire a professional janitorial cleaning service to save you time, money, worry, and anxiety. ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning of Rochester knows how valuable your time and money are, and we want you to spend those off-work hours doing something you enjoy. Contact us today by calling (507) 281-2494, or visit us here to schedule your janitorial cleaning services in Rochester, MN.

Has it ever dawned on you that your lobby, waiting area, or office is one of the first impressions of clients when they enter? Furthermore, have you ever thought of the impression your upholstery leaves on these same clients? Is it dirty, drab, torn, worn, or just a downright eyesore? Commercial upholstery cleaning is important for your business and is often overlooked. ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning in Rochester, MN, will clean your upholstery in the blink of an eye, restoring it to its former glory.

Most business owners tend to focus on the carpets or flooring of their lobbies, waiting areas, or offices but neglect commercial upholstery cleaning. But, let’s face it. You and your clients spend more time sitting on the furniture than on the carpet, right? Check out the reasons and benefits of hiring a professional upholstery cleaning service for your office or business.

1. Clean look and feel. If, and when, you notice a stain, you may rush right over to clean or blot it and maybe even use a DIY cleaner from your local retail store. However, hiring a professional upholstery cleaner will clean deep down into the fibers and lift the stain completely so your furniture looks and feels clean.
2. Improve air quality. Most don’t realize that upholstery is a giant air filter, attracting all sorts of dust, allergens, and even food odors. Just as you change your furnace filter regularly, so is the importance of cleaning upholstery to get rid of dust, allergens, mold, mildew, and even odors which, in turn, improves the quality of air in your office or business.
3. Improve health. Those with asthma or other respiratory issues know that allergens cause problems. Regular upholstery cleaning removes these allergens, making breathing easier and improving overall health.
4. Great investment. If you own or operate a business, you know all about overhead and start-up costs, one of which is probably furniture. You’ve made a huge investment in many items to make your office look great and feel welcoming. Regular cleaning of upholstery will lengthen the lifespan of your furniture and, thereby, save you money.
5. We’ve all heard it said that “time is money.” If you own or operate a business, cleaning upholstery is probably not in your daily or monthly list of tasks to complete. That’s why hiring a professional upholstery cleaning service to do the job for you not only saves you time, but money as well, so you can devote your time and energy to what you do best—run your business.
6. Challenging to clean. Most furniture or upholstery is made of many different fabrics, all of which require expertise and proper tools and cleaning products. Add to that, the little nooks and crannies of cushions, pleats, arms, headrests, etc. Upholstery is a real challenge to clean. A professional upholstery cleaning service will take this burden off you and leave your furniture looking great and smelling cleaning and fresh.

 Shorter days, colder weather, and long winters are what Minnesota is all about from November through April, and those long winters can really drag on unless you have fun activities planned. Snowmobiling, skiing, football games, and building snowman are what winter enthusiasts dream about—not carpet cleaning, upholstery cleaning, and general cleaning.

Minnesota winters, however, can be tough on the interiors of our businesses, especially the carpeting. ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning in Rochester, MN will give your floors a brutal attack of cleaning to make your carpets look, smell, and feel clean, like a freshly fallen snow.

Minnesota winters can get us down or pick us up, whichever way we decide to react. Contacting a commercial carpet cleaning service has numerous benefits to give you and your business a pick-me-up during a long, cold, harsh winter:

1. Snow, dirt, and grime are tracked-in on boots and shoes. No matter how hard you try to keep it at the door, snow, dirt, salt, sand, and everything else seems to find its way deep down into the fibers of your carpet, leaving it looking dull and dirty.
2. Moisture leads to bacteria and creates a perfect environment for it to thrive. When shoes or boots track in snow, it’s difficult to keep it at the door. This, in turn, leaves wet spots and dirt on your carpet. If not cleaned properly, this filth can promote the growth of bacteria, and a foul odor. A carpet cleaning service can remove odors and bacteria.
3. Regular cleaning of your carpets helps to prolong your carpets’ lifespan. Installing carpet is a huge expense. If not properly cleaned and maintained regularly, carpeting will need to be replaced much sooner than you’d expect. Unless your budget is unending, it’s much less expensive to hire a professional carpet cleaning service regularly than to replace your carpet every few years.
4. Your carpet is truly a reflection of your business. If a client walks into a lobby or waiting area and sees stains, dirt, dust, and grime, or carpets that look worn and drab, their first impression will be a lasting, bad impression. Keep your work place clean and inviting by hiring a professional carpet cleaning service.
5. Avoid the labor of trying to keep your carpets clean and fresh yourself. Let’s face it; as a consumer and business owner, you don’t have the time or equipment to deep clean carpets and flooring. Hiring a professional carpet cleaning service takes the burden off you and your employees so you can focus on what you do best—running your business.

If the long, cold, harsh winter months in Minnesota have you and your carpets looking and feeling drab, contact ServiceMaster Commercial Cleaning in Rochester MN. Our trained, experienced, and knowledgeable staff have the proper equipment, products, and expertise to get your carpets looking, smelling, and feeling clean, like a freshly fallen snow.
