With fewer students on campus, schools have the opportunity to invest in commercial cleaning and prepare for reopening. Ideally, it’s best to focus your efforts on common areas that receive heavy foot traffic, as these will require the most attention. Here are three places that tend to accumulate a significant amount of dirt on campus.

3 Areas to Have Cleaned During a School Break

1. Walkways

Concrete walkways can take the brunt of the damage on campus, and constant foot traffic will dirty it over time. The commercial cleaning team will use power washers to blast away hardened gum, mildew, and unsightly concrete stains. Schedule the cleaning once school is out, so the team won’t have to battle ongoing foot traffic, and students won’t need to take detours to avoid the area.

2. Parking Lot

Your school likely has at least one lot where students, teachers, faculty, and visitors park their cars. Have the commercial cleaning team remove caked-on debris from the asphalt surface and give it a good rinse with a pressure washer. To give your parking area a complete makeover, restripe the lines and directional markings once the asphalt is clean.

3. Pool

If your campus has a stone or tile pool deck that surrounds the water, make sure it’s cleaned thoroughly. Given the close proximity to the water, lingering liquid on the surface can turn pool areas into a breeding ground for mildew and hard water stains. Once the commercial cleaning team removes contaminants from the deck, apply a sealcoat to transform the area into a slip- and water-resistant surface.
