The moment a floor becomes urgent

Most commercial enquiries arrive because of an event, not a schedule. These pages are written for those events.

An inspection date, a lease end, a leak on a Friday afternoon, a complaint about odour in a communal lounge — these are the points at which a floor stops being a background item and becomes someone's problem to solve this week.

Each page covers what can realistically be achieved in the time available, what needs deciding first, and what we need from you to work at short notice.

Before a CQC or Ofsted Inspection

End of Commercial Lease Dilapidations

How floors look at the point a dilapidations schedule is drawn up can influence what's raised as an item to remedy.

After a Burst Pipe or Leak

Once a leak has been stopped and the immediate water removed, the floor underneath still needs proper cleaning and drying.

brief

After Building or Refurbishment Works

Building dust and trade residue settle into carpet pile and dull hard flooring in ways a standard site clean rarely fully removes.

Before a Property Photoshoot or Open Day

Cameras and daylight are unforgiving on floors that have gone a little too long between proper cleans.

checklist

Before a Health and Safety Audit

Slip risk and visible cleanliness are both things a health and safety audit will typically look at.

After a Heavy Event or Conference

A single large event can put more wear on a venue's floors than months of normal daily use.

checklist

Seasonal Deep Clean Before Reopening

A closed season or extended break is one of the few windows to deep clean floors without working around daily footfall.

diagnostic

Change of Facilities Contractor

A change of facilities contractor is a good moment to find out what condition your floors have actually been left in.

spec

Before a Franchise or Brand Audit

Brand audits look closely at presentation, and floors are one of the more obvious things that fall behind between visits.

diagnostic

After a Complaint About Odour

A single odour complaint is worth taking seriously before it becomes a pattern noticed by more people.
