An essential part to keeping hard floors clean is mopping. However most people are moping the incorrect way. Mopping is more than just slapping water on the surface and moving it around with a mop. There are numerous steps to ensure that your floors are kept sparkling clean.
The first step towards a clean, mopped floor is to sweep all debris and dust off the floor. If this is not done, then you risk dirtying your floors more! Skipping this step leads to dirt spreading and mixing in with the water. When this water dries, dirt streaks will be left leaving an unpleasant look. It is essential that a floor is swept or vacuumed before it is moped.
Choosing the correct solutions for the type of floor that you have is very important as the way a solution reacts with different floor types varies. Whether you have hardwood, tiles, vinyl, laminate, or linoleum our Lancaster House Cleaners know which solution is the best for your floors. Also having the correct water to solution ratio is important as some solutions can damage floors at high concentrations. Antelope Valley Janitorial Services has the knowledge to properly clean your floors.
Before you begin mopping, you need the proper equipment. Most people think of a string mop when mopping comes in mind. However, there is also a sponge mop which may be a better option for your floors. In order to get the cleanest floor possible, you need to know which mop to use for your floors. Similarly, most people only use one mop bucket mop the floors. However, consider using two mop buckets: one for a first rinse and wring, the second for a second soak with soap. This will separate the debris that the moped picked up form the soap or solutions you are using to clean your floors. This method of mopping not only is the most hygienic way to mop but also is the cleanest way. When you hire us to clean your home, office, or commercial area, we will ensure that highest quality equipment and cleaning techniques are used.
Mopping in the correct direction is also a crucial step. Before mopping, carry out all the functions your are going to do that involves walking on the floor. When someone walks on a freshly mopped floor, the dirt from their footwear is more easily transferred to the water that is on the floor.

This prohibits the person mopping from walking across the floor after the floor has been mopped and wet.
The final step to a clean, healthy, and hygienic floor is to air it out. Airing out a floor is simple: do not walk on the floor until completely dry. For reasons aforementioned, to keep the floor clean after moping avoid stepping on the floor when wet.
