Although cleaning is traditionally spring’s claim to fame, fall is a prime cleaning season as well. After all, your space deserves that in-depth level of cleaning and care more than once a year. As we transition from sunny summer barbecues into the shorter days and cooler autumn temperatures, here are the top areas your business should prioritize during your fall refresh, as well as the commercial cleaning services needed to do it.

1. High-Traffic Areas

   Routine commercial cleaning services can only cover so much ground. To ensure you’re heading into a new season with all high-traffic areas of your business thoroughly cleaned, your fall refresh needs to include deep cleaning. This service, which can be customized to your business’s unique needs, pays extra attention to common areas like lobbies, bathrooms, break rooms and other places people often pass through and gather in, as well as frequently touched surfaces, such as buttons, handles, countertops and more.
   
    

2. Personal Workstations

   When you see something regularly, like your desk, it’s easy to overlook how dirty it's become. But rest assured, dust, germs and residue are there. It’s important that your fall deep cleaning also targets your business’s personal workstations. An in-depth cleaning of these areas at the start of a new season can ensure every inch of your business is being taken care of.
   
    

3. Windows

   Your windows and glass doors are some of the first things anyone sees of your business, but they’re also directly exposed to your local environmental conditions. In addition to the fingerprints and smudges that will inevitably form on your window interiors, your exteriors will come face-to-face with the wind, fallen leaves, dirt and other debris that fall brings.
   
   Without proper cleaning and care, these factors can contribute to buildups, scratches, staining and discoloration over time, eventually leading to a costly window replacement sooner than planned. Thus, it’s important to incorporate window cleaning in your fall refresh to keep these valuable business assets in good shape.
   
    

4. Hard Floors

   Just as your windows contribute to the impression your business makes on employees, visitors and guests, so do your floors. Everyone who walks across your hard floors is grinding dirt and dust particles further into the surface, leaving scratches. There are also potential impacts from moving heavier objects, like furniture and equipment, or seasonal debris getting tracked in.
   
   On top of everyday vacuuming and mopping, you’ll want to incorporate dedicated hard floor cleaning services in your fall refresh. This added preventative maintenance, which can include scrubbing, waxing and polishing depending on your floor’s material, helps combat impacts from heavy foot traffic, weather, spills and scratches.
   
    

5. Carpets

   Carpets, like hard flooring, can be impacted by heavy foot traffic. Without proper cleaning and maintenance, signs of wear and tear — fraying, fading, stains — become visible. They also trap dirt, allergens and pathogens over time, which can lead to unpleasant odors and contribute to your carpets becoming health-and-safety hazards.
   
   Thus, professional carpet cleaning isn’t a want, but a need. In fact, it’s recommended for water extraction treatments to take place once or twice per year, and following a wet, allergen-riddled summer is the perfect time.
