Thorough cleaning requires the perfect amount of attention to detail, experience and equipment, to get the job done properly. These aspects are even more important when it comes to cleaning carparks in Sydney.
Carpark cleaning is essential for any facility which wishes to attract more customers, ensure their customers and staff are safe, and prevent accidents. However, there are a bevy of mistakes that businesses and cleaners make when committing to a carpark cleaning operation.
Here are those cleaning mistakes that you must avoid at all costs.
Failing to hire a professional carpark cleaning contractor
Carpark cleaning is no joke and therefore, you simply must work with the professionals. If you try and save money by hiring an extremely cheap company, you could be in for trouble. This is because a cleaning contractor that doesn’t know its business may well leave your carpark in poor condition, and even cause damage to your asset.
On the other hand, hiring an experienced, professional Sydney carpark cleaning company puts you in great hands. At Sydney Sweep and Scrub, we have the expertise, equipment and the passion for cleaning, that promises to deliver a great queen every time.
Simply spreading dust
Dust is a common feature in most carparks, and unfortunately, it is a health concern. Therefore, businesses have a duty of care to ensure dust is removed regularly and effectively. This must be done correctly, else dust will simply be spread further around your carpark. That creates further concerns for your customers and employees, and impacts the look of your facility!
At Sydney Sweep and Scrub, we’re experts in removing dangerous dust from carparks across the city. We use our tried and tested methods to ensure that we collect all the dust and miniscule particles in your carpark, without spreading them around.
Washing with too much pressure
Pressure washing is a cost-effective way to quickly move all kinds of tough stains, grime, and spills from your concrete surfaces. It can be done with either hot water or cold water, high pressure or low pressure, and with or without cleaning chemicals.
Cleaning concrete usually requires more pressure, particularly when removing really tough stains like tire marks or even chewing gum. On the other hand, washing other materials like timber, or even the grout between brick and tiling, will require a lower pressure setting.
Utilising high-pressure washing on some areas of your carpark can cause damage. For example, if there sections of cracked or crumbling concrete, high pressure can make these areas worse, requiring fast repairs.
Too much water
Most cleaning applications do require some amount of water. However, using too much water is a common mistake businesses make when cleaning their carpark. Even some professional carpark cleaning companies use too much water, diluting cleaning agents and sometimes leaving more of a mess.
Too much water can simply spread dirt, filth, and chemicals further around your carpark, making it even more difficult to effectively remove these contaminants. Only a carpark cleaning company with the right equipment and expertise will understand the perfect amount of water to use in each cleaning application.
At Sydney Sweep and Scrub, our cutting-edge sweep and scrub machines use minimal water, yet achieve the best results possible for your carpark. With high-tech scrubbing and sweeping mechanisms, we’ll leave your carpark floors sparkling clean. This also means we operate sustainably, every single time.
Environmentally unfriendly practices
Sustainability in Sydney carpark cleaning is extremely important, because we all need to do our part to protect the environment. At Sydney Sweep and Scrub, we do this by using modern sweep and scrub machines that use minimal water. What’s more, we do not use cleaning chemicals.
We do on occasion, use biodegradable degreasers when removing tough stains and spills from concrete surfaces, though this only happens when absolutely necessary. Our commitment to sustainability is present in every single cleaning operation, and you can find out more on our website.
