When Yard House in Moorestown prepared for an upcoming inspection, management didn’t just tidy up—they embraced a floor care method that goes far beyond what other restaurants attempt.
First, our team tackled the front-of-house, behind the bar, and the bathrooms. The results? Spotless floors. To take a peek click here- Yard House Bathrooms Tune Up: Spotless & Pristine… Next, came the kitchen, completing a full deep clean—finishing a full week before the inspector’s arrival.
No other restaurant in the area has embraced this level of technology.
Management already knew from Jeff, one of our senior techs, why nightly mopping with degreaser wasn’t solving their problem. In fact, it was making things worse.
Here’s the usual: degreaser mixed with grease, drink spills, foot traffic, and urine creates a breeding ground for cross-contamination. The results are all too common:
Grout lines that turn dark, germ-laden, and foul-smelling
Hard surface floors and carpets that feel sticky
Floors that are never truly sanitary
Nightly mopping, especially with dirty mop heads and contaminated water, only compounds the problem. Each pass leaves behind another layer of chemical residue. That’s why so many restaurants resort to dark grout, patterned tile, or busy carpets—hoping to disguise the soiling rather than solve it.
That’s where our ‘periodic deep steam cleaning process’ takes over. Yard House tapped into our proven method—pressure injection spraying, diamond brush rotary scrubbing, high pressure edge detailing, and high-heat steam rinsing that flushes soils and residues from every grout line and corner.
This isn’t just cleaning—it’s restoration. Bathrooms, bar areas, and front-of-house floors came back to life, sanitized and odor-free, with a presentation that daily mopping can never achieve. (Think of the difference between a quick car wash and a full detailing- it’s that level of outcome.)
We’ve all seen the alternative: sticky floors, smelly grout, greasy residues that make shoes click with every step. At one competing franchise, staff even admitted remove their shoes before entering their homes after a shift. That’s not just unpleasant—it’s a brand damage. (And I validate that, evey step I took my shoes clicked. When I entered the bathroom there was an “off smell”. When I looked at the floor I cringed. And the thought of having anything hit the floor gave me the heebie-geebies!)
Since 2022 Yard House Moorestown chose differently. By adopting professional-grade floor care, they’ve gained:
Inspection-ready floors well ahead of schedule
A safer, more hygienic environment for guests and staff
A visibly elevated standard that reflects the brand’s reputation
After the first demo cleaning in-house and property managers were instantly impressed. The steam restoration took not only their tile and grout to a whole new level of clean. It also completely annihilated the the grease, dirt and grime in the edges, corners, the metal window and wall bases. Even the nooks and crannies around the bases of the booth tables, under the bar surfaces, and even around the partitions in the bathrooms.
There wasn’t a doubt in his mind. He wanted this periodic service to occasionally back up their regular routine. In fact, he remarked, “You don’t have to sell me, I could see it with my own eyes—sold!” Additionally, other managers and regional managers heard the buzz and visited to see the results!
Since then we have worked closely with them on a rotational basis. This has totally uplifted their game in having pristinely clean floors on a much more consistent basis. Gone are the days of struggling with the impossible task and tail spin of muscling with residue laden floors, and settling for a tolerable level of grease they forever hope patrons don’t see!
This franchise group is forward thinking, leveraging cutting edge technology, and is expanding it to other franchise locations. It has already sparked interest as other brands have become curious, and are beginning to talk to us as well. Word is spreading. And we are happy to discuss this and demo these dramatic results to other brands so they can see the results for themselves.
Yard House Moorestown isn’t just cleaning floors—they’re raising the standard. For forward-thinking restaurant brands, the equation is simple:
Cleaner floors. Safer environments. Better guest experiences. Brand success!
