Asset Preservation: Hard Flooring & Carpet

Why is the frequency and quality of floor cleaning so important?

Frequent and quality carpet and hard floor care not only significantly impacts a building’s appearance, but it also plays a large role in the preservation of assets.

Dirt and poor maintenance reduce a floor’s quality, as well as it’s lifetime.

Strategic floor maintenance factors in when it comes to increasing your company’s cleaning return on investment. Smart maintenance and cleaning programs will prolong a floor’s lifetime, allowing the costs to be spread out over a longer period of time. Poor maintenance and cleaning frequency lead to the reduction of a floor’s lifetime, and ultimately increase flooring cost per year. Warranties are often based on scheduled maintenance.

Flooring cost per year is formulated from the following:

  • Cost of installation/Flooring life in year + Removal and disposal cost/ Flooring life in years + Yearly cleaning cost.
