What Season Is Best To Get Cleaning Done?

As a business owner or property manager, you want to keep your space clean and presentable all year round. But did you know that some types of cleaning are better suited for certain seasons? In this guide, we’ll go over the best times of year to have different types of commercial cleaning done.

Spring

Spring is typically the time when people start thinking about deep cleaning. After a long winter, it feels good to open up the windows and let some fresh air in. This is also the perfect time to get rid of any built-up dirt and grime that’s been accumulating over the past few months.

Some of the most important types of cleaning to do in spring are:

  • Windows: Cleaning both the inside and outside of your windows will let in more light and make your space feel brighter.
  • Floors: A good deep cleaning of your floors will remove any dirt, dust, or grime that’s been tracked in over the winter.
  • Pressure washing: Remove any dirt, mold, or mildew from the outside of your building.

Summer

Summer is a great time for lighter cleaning tasks. Since people are typically out of the office more often, there’s less foot traffic and dirt to deal with. This is the perfect time to focus on tasks that might have been neglected during the busier spring season. There’s also a lot of humidity in the air, so it’s a good time to focus on tasks that will maintain your air quality.

Some types of cleaning to do in summer are:

  • Air vents: Cleaning your air vents will help improve the air quality in your space.
  • Ceiling fans: Dusting and cleaning your ceiling fans will help circulate the air and keep your space cool.
  • Blinds and curtains: These can collect dust over time, so it’s important to give them a good cleaning every few months.

Fall

Fall is the perfect time to prepare your space for the colder months ahead. This means getting rid of any dirt, dust, or pollen that can accumulate during the summer months. It’s also a good time to do any deep cleaning tasks that you might have put off during the spring and summer and before kicking off a new fiscal year.

Some of the best types of cleaning to do in the fall are:

  • HVAC system: Cleaning your HVAC system will help improve the air quality in your space and remove any pollen or other allergens that might have been trapped over the summer.
  • Windows: Giving your windows a good cleaning both inside and out will help them last longer and keep your space looking its best.
  • Floors: A deep clean of your floors will remove any dirt, dust, or grime that’s been tracked in over the summer. Ask us about our Tile and Grout cleaning service!
  • Carpets: If you have carpets, they may need to be shampooed or steam cleaned to get rid of any dirt and stains.

Winter

During the winter, your higher traffic areas will be dirtiest since we get so much rain and dirt, leaves, and water are tracked inside.  Therefore, it’s important to focus on these areas when doing your winter cleaning. You’ll also tend to have more windows shut, with reduced circulation and more dust. It’s also important to focus on cleaning high-touch areas, especially because winter-time is also the peak flu season.

Some of the most important types of cleaning to do in winter are:

  • Carpets: If you have carpets, they may need to be shampooed or steam cleaned to get rid of any dirt and stains.
  • High-touch areas: These are areas that tend to be touched a lot, such as door handles, light switches, and countertops. Focusing on these areas will help reduce the spread of germs.
  • Windows: Cleaning both the inside and outside of your windows will let in more light and make your space feel brighter.
