Your staff is already mopping those floors twice a day. What if they didn’t have to?
Most of the dirt, water, and grime in your facility walks straight through the front door. Without proper mats, your team spends hours cleaning what shouldn’t have gotten past the entrance in the first place.
At Wagg’s, Ontario businesses use professional mat service to stop the mess before it spreads. Less mopping, fewer safety hazards, and your cleaning crew can focus on actual problems instead of mud tracks.
1. Mats Stop Slips Before They Start
Most slip accidents begin at the door. Rain, snow, and dirt get tracked inside within minutes. Without proper floor protection, moisture spreads fast and creates a serious hazard. In Ontario alone, there are about 17,000 lost-time injuries due to falls in the workplace each year, with 65% of those injuries happening on the same level (WSPS). That’s approximately 47 workers injured every day from falls – more than one every 30 minutes.
Our floor mat service helps stop that problem at the source. We place high-quality mats at entrances and high-traffic areas where moisture builds up first. These mats trap water and debris before it reaches your floors. According to the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety, the majority (67%) of falls happen on the same level from slips and trips, making proper entrance matting one of the most effective prevention tools available.
When mats reach capacity, we swap them out for clean, dry ones on a regular schedule. You never have to guess when they need changing and your floors never stay wet long enough to become dangerous.
2. Cleaner Floors Reduce Daily Cleaning Strain
Without mats doing the first level of cleanup, all the dirt and moisture ends up on your floors. That means more mopping, more chemicals, more labour, and more wear on your surfaces.
With a dependable floor mat service, your floors stay cleaner throughout the day. Dirt stays on the mats where it belongs. Moisture stays contained instead of spreading across tile, concrete, or entry carpet.
Your cleaning staff spends less time reacting to messes and more time maintaining the rest of the facility. That saves time, lowers supply usage, and reduces long-term floor damage.
3. Clean Mats Protect Your Brand Image
Customers notice your floors the moment they walk in. A wet, grimy entrance sends the wrong message before a word is even spoken. On the other hand, clean mats and dry floors show that your business takes care of details.
Our floor mat service helps maintain that first impression every single day. We clean every mat professionally between uses and return only mats that meet our appearance standards. Stained or worn mats never go back into circulation.
When your floors look clean, your entire space feels more professional. That confidence carries into how customers view your operation as a whole.
4. Mat Service Supports Workplace Safety Programs
Many Ontario businesses already invest in safety training, signage, and policies. Floor protection should be part of that same conversation.
By using a consistent floor mat service, you are not relying on staff to remember when mats should be changed. You are not guessing when moisture levels become unsafe. You build safety into your daily routine automatically.
We help businesses correct mat placement based on traffic patterns, door locations, and problem zones we observe during service. That practical input often solves hazards that go unnoticed until an incident occurs.
5. Service Keeps Mats Working the Way They Should
Buying mats and washing them in-house sounds simple at first. Over time, those mats lose absorbency, develop odours, and become less effective at gripping the floor. That reduces their safety value.
Our floor mat service keeps mats in proper working condition. We launder them using professional equipment designed to restore absorbency and traction. When mats wear out, we replace them automatically. No tracking. No storage. No downtime.
Here is what ongoing service provides in real terms:
- Regular rotation of clean, dry mats
- Proper deep cleaning that restores performance
- Automatic replacement of worn or damaged mats
- No storage space required at your facility
Your team never has to manage the process. We handle it from start to finish.
Why Business Owners Rely on Service Instead of Managing Mats Alone
When mats fail, it is usually because they stayed in place too long, were washed improperly, or were never replaced when worn down. These small oversights can turn into costly injuries, damaged flooring, or customer complaints.
With Wagg’s managing your floor mat service, those risks drop dramatically. We operate on a predictable schedule. We handle the heavy cleaning. We replace what no longer performs. You get reliable protection without adding another task to your workload.
Many of our clients across automotive, manufacturing, healthcare, and hospitality choose service for one simple reason. It removes uncertainty. They know their floors are protected every week without needing to monitor the process themselves.
