Slipping in the Wet Weather….

Monday, November 9th, 2009

Well, we are well into Autumn now with the darker evenings and what seems like constant rain showers.

One of the hazards we encounter this time of year in the rain, ice and snow is slipping on hard floor surfaces.

I encountered this very problem at the weekend, mearly walking from outside in a shopping centre into their main indoor shops.  The floor was wet outside and the flooring in the arcade was shiny marble tiles.   Now the floor looks lovely, shiny and expensive but, with wet shoes on, these hard floors literally turn into an ice-rink!

Luckily, I am quite firm on my feet but pensioners, the disabled or young children might not be so lucky and in courts these days damages may run into tens of thousands for broken bones.

I will of course be contacting the Shopping Centre Management to discuss my concerns with their floor.  As they only opened in May this year, they haven’t had a Autumn/Winter Season to test the floors. 

However, these expensive claims from the unlucky victims of falls and slips can be completely eliminated just by applying non-slip floor solutions to slippery when wet floors.

Our range of anti-slip floor solutions can treat any hard floor service including marble, concrete, vinyl, wood etc. making it slip resistant whilst not compromising on the beauty of the floor.  Together with the initial floor treatment,  an ongoing maintenance programme with the cleaners or ourselves will prolong the effectiveness of the anti-slip floor treatment.

At Shipshape we can cater for all your cleaning needs, helping to improve your working environment.  As well as office cleaning, we can arrange cleaning in other areas, our range of services include:

Deep Cleans to areas that have heavy use or get dirty, including factory areas, mess rooms, warehouses, showers, washrooms etc.

Jet Washing external features such as bridges, walkways, patio areas and decking.  These areas can also become slippery this time of year, check out the anti-slip section of our website:

Window, Fascia & Sofits and Gutter Cleaning is a service that we can offer either as a one-off blitz clean of these areas or windows can be scheduled in on a regular basis, with the Fascias, Soffits and Guttering less often.

Floor Sealing improves the longevity of a hard floor surface and makes it easier to clean and the cleaning is more effective.  We can provide this service to new or old floors.  Where slip issues occur on a hard floor, we can seal with specialist ant-slip floor treatments which comply with HSE guidelines.  See link above.

PC Cleaning is a service we can provide to ensure keyboards and PC’s are cleaned and germ free.  It is good practice to have equipment regularly cleaned to prolong the life of it and for hygiene reasons.  This service can be carried out after hours for minimal disruption to the business. 

Carpet Cleaning can be done out of hours or at weekends, this can range from a full clean of carpets throughout the building or just particular carpets in high traffic areas. 

Blind Cleaning can make a huge difference to the ‘look’ of windows, especially this time of year when dust has built up on them over the summer with windows being open and now this time of year with spiderwebs.

It is a good idea to incorporate these services into the overall cleaning schedule so regular visits will keep all areas, not just the cleaners areas, in top condition.

At Shipshape, clients can have our cleaning services and can pick from the above ad-hoc or regular specialist cleaning services as and when they are needed. This is conveniently managed by us all under one roof, with one invoice going out to the client.

If that appeals to your business, contact us for a site review.
