Getting Ready for Snow and Slush

In Winterpeg 😜, expect the unexpected! Snow and slush can hit any day and we want you to be ready for whatever is coming your way. 

Protect The Entryway 

Ever come home from work, take off your boots only to step in someone else’s muddy footprint? We’ve all been there. Putting down an extra floor mat can help soak up excess moisture before it touches your floors. If there’s a bit of a wet spot or puddle, make sure that you wipe it before it dries to keep your floors sparkly and clean! 

Deep Clean Your Floors

Prevention is easier and cheaper than restoration. Protect your floors before things get dirty! Trust us, preparing your floors for heavy foot traffic – your home and future-self will thank you! 

Focus On High-Traffic Areas

When the days are shorter and darker, it’s normal to feel unmotivated to keep things tidy and clean. Some things you can do to keep the dark days just a little bit brighter is to focus on high-visibility and high traffic areas by wiping down dust and fingerprints! These are areas like… 

  • Doors

  • Handles

  • Glass panels

  • Display cases

  • Lightning fixtures

Removing Salt Stains and Water Streaks

Winter salt and slush can quickly leave floors looking dull and streaky, but a few simple steps can keep your space spotless. Start by sweeping up salt and debris to prevent scratches, then mop with warm (not hot) water and a salt-neutralizing cleaner to break down residue. Rinse your mop often and dry floors thoroughly with a microfiber cloth to avoid white streaks. To prevent future buildup, add entry mats, keep up with regular maintenance, and apply a protective floor finish before winter sets in!

Stay Prepared

We get it, sometimes the day doesn’t have enough time for even maintenance cleaning. Another way to stay on top of things is to come prepared with the tools and supplies you need to tackle cold-weather clean ups. Stock up your cupboards with cleaning supplies so when things get messy - you’ll be ready!
