Education – Floor Cleaning For Schools

Floor maintenance in education buildings has always been a challenge.  These floors receive high levels of traffic due to hundreds of students changing classes throughout the day. Schools have a predictable schedule that allows for deep cleaning during summer months, where floors could be cleaned, stripped and finished.

Here are some of the cleaning challenges typically found in an educational setting that Square Scrub and Mytee can address.

1. Classrooms    

  • Pivot – Any surface can be cleaned, maintained, or restored with the Pivot.  Use the Blue 3D Scrub pad for cleaning LVT, or dry prep/chemical strip VCT.  Blue and Red pads can also be used for light cleaning.
  • Doodle Scrub – Ideal for tight spots that normally have to be cleaned manually.  The Doodle Scrub can do anything the larger Pivot can, but in a smaller package.  Pair the Doodle Scrub and the Doodle Skate for cleaning baseboards.
  • Doodle Mop – Used regularly, the Doodle Mop helps to maintain the appearance of LVT & VCT flooring
  • HP90 Stingray– This detail extractor provides 1,200W of inline heat to help loosen up tough grime for easy extracting.
  • Contractor Extractor Specials – Everything you need for wall-to-wall carpet cleaning in one box! A range of heated and non-heated carpet extractors in portable configurations with all the tools, hoses, and fittings needed to get started.

  • Pivot – Ceramic tile floors found in school bathrooms and locker rooms can be cleaned by the Pivot and the Blue 3D Scrub pad.
  • Doodle Scrub – The Doodle Scrub cleans under and behind toilets, under urinals, under sinks, under partitions, and into corners using the Blue 3D Scrub pad.
  • 1600 Focus Steamer – Disinfect dirty counters and facilities chemical-free using steam power! The 1600 focus steamer cuts through soap scum and other build-up around sinks, toilets, and other areas for efficient cleaning and sanitizing.

4. Stairs

  • Doodle Scrub+ – The Doodle Scrub+ is ideal for cleaning in stairwells since fire codes do not allow for outlets in these areas.  Plus, this eliminates trip and fall hazards.  Clean the treads with the Doodle Scrub and then use the Doodle Skate to clean the stair risers.

5. Cafeteria

  • Pivot – The Pivot is ideal for top-scrubbing (chemical stripping or dry prep) and recoating floors in a large area like a cafeteria, saving labor dollars, stripper and finish costs when using the dry prep method.  Also ideal for cleaning tile and grout in the kitchen using the Blue 3D Scrub pad.

  • Doodle Mop – The Doodle Mop can also be used for daily maintenance using their disposable microfiber pads.
  • 1600 Focus Steamer– Easily remove gum and sticky spills from seats, floors and other areas using steam power!

7. Gymnasium

  • Pivot – The Pivot is a fast way to prepare a gym floor for recoating.  The Pivot 28 has been documented at 10,000 square feet per hour preparing gym floors!  Use sand screens for removal of finish.
