❄️ Winter Maintenance Checklist: Salt, Slush, and Floor Protection

Winter weather in New England is tough on more than just your commute—it’s hard on your floors, too. Here’s how to protect your building (and your budget) all season long.

1. Entryway Mats Are Your First Line of Defense

Invest in heavy-duty scraper mats outside and absorbent mats inside. This prevents salt and water from being tracked through the building.

2. Schedule Frequent Floor Care

Snow and ice melt can leave behind residue that dulls finishes and stains tile grout. A mid-season floor scrub or polish keeps surfaces fresh.

3. Rotate Cleaning Products Seasonally

Winter dirt requires different solutions. Our teams use pH-neutral cleaners that remove salt without damaging sealants or finishes.

4. Don’t Forget Exterior Safety

Clean, well-maintained walkways and parking lots prevent slip hazards and maintain curb appeal.
