As the country begins to come out of lockdown, more and more commercial premises are opening up to the public again. In order to do this, those companies are taking every reasonable precaution to ensure the safety of their staff and customers alike.
Some of these measures involve things like social distancing, the promotion of face masks, and providing hand sanitiser at the door of their business. Other precautions are just everyday good hygiene – things like the regular cleaning of door handles, tables, shelves, toilets and other surfaces people might touch. Most companies already clean these areas, but the current pandemic has highlighted their sanitation routines and prompted them to clean and sanitise their premises more frequently and more vigorously.
However, a significant part of any commercial building that often gets overlooked is the floor. Here at Sharpe Maintenance, we know better than most what a breeding ground for disease most commercial floors can be. Hundreds, if not thousands, of people walk in and out of your premises, bringing along with them any viruses or bacteria they may have picked up along the way.
What’s more, with COVID-19 being spread through respiratory droplets such as coughs and sneezes, these particles will inevitably end up on your floor through gravity alone.
So what is the solution?
It’s really simple: clean and sanitise your floors with the same determination as you do your other surfaces. The best way to do that is with the right equipment.

We supply floor scrubber dryers, large and small, including ride-on scrubber dryers that can handle the largest floored areas such as warehouses and shopping centres as well as pedestrian scrubber dryers that you walk behind. Both deliver highly effective deep cleaning of floor surfaces with all residue safely recovered for hygienic disposal, leaving floors clean and dry.
For those businesses that want the added peace of mind from sanitisation, we also provide scrubber dryers with sanitiser solutions built-in including liquid sprayers for covering large areas with ease.
We also stock portable sanitising machines for smaller premises (or smaller areas within larger buildings). These can be operated with ease by a single cleaner and our hand-held electrostatic sanitisers are designed to effectively clean those hard to reach nooks and crannies.
All these floor cleaning and sanitising products are available from Sharpe Maintenance Services. Call us on 0116 254 6049 or complete the enquiry form to discuss the floor cleaning and sanitising solutions that are best for you and receive a free, no obligation quote.
