What’s included in commercial cleaning?

Commercial cleaning is an essential service, especially in this day and age. To help you understand what’s included in commercial cleaning and why these things are necessary for your workplace, you can separate commercial cleaning into two categories; routine and general cleaning.

Routine cleaning

This category of commercial cleaning can follow a daily, weekly, monthly, bi-annual, or annual schedule, depending on what your workspace needs. Our commercial cleaners will work closely with the needs of your business, creating a list of cleaning tasks to keep everything in working order. A routine cleaning can include your building’s bathrooms, kitchen, common areas, and appliances like printers, water coolers, or frequently touched surfaces.

Deep cleaning

Deep cleaning is an essential step for preventative maintenance in the workplace and protecting the health of your employees. During a deep cleaning, our cleaners leave no stone unturned. We sanitize hard-to-reach areas that accumulate grime and dust, common areas around your workplace, and areas not touched on during a general cleaning like walls, ceilings, and carpets.

What is a commercial cleaning job?

A commercial cleaner is responsible for keeping the workplace clean, stocked, and generally safe for anyone who enters your building. A commercial cleaning job is typically personalized to the needs of a business in terms of what needs to be cleaned and how often. 

Common commercial cleaning tasks:

• Dusting 
• Mopping
• Vacuuming
• Disinfecting
• Trash and recycling
• Inspections and reports

This isn’t a complete list of cleaning tasks that a commercial cleaner might perform. It can vary according to the needs of your business, whether your cleaner is performing routine or deep cleaning, and tools used for the job.

What is the difference between commercial cleaning? Commercial vs. residential cleaning services

The services included in commercial and residential cleaning might sound similar, but they have very different goals. Your workplace includes tasks that would never appear in a typical residential cleaning like special equipment, shared bathrooms, hazardous materials, and spaces that are trafficked much more than your typical home..

What is usually required in a typical commercial cleaning doesn’t fall under the expertise, equipment, or technique that residential cleaners use. This doesn’t mean that commercial cleaners just clean better, but residential cleaners specialize in cleaning and maintaining a completely different environment.

What is a commercial deep clean?

It’s important to remember that although routine cleanings are essential for maintaining a business, deep cleanings also play an important role in maintaining a safe and clean work environment. A commercial deep clean prioritizes disinfecting surfaces and using the appropriate tools and materials to sanitize the various areas of your business.

A deep clean always begins with a general clean to remove dirt and debris. This prepares surfaces to be disinfected and followed up with the right tools and techniques. With various disinfectants at our disposal, our team uses chemicals that are safe for the surfaces they are being applied to.

Bacteria and viruses can survive on surfaces long enough to affect the health of employees. The coronavirus spreading during this pandemic can survive on surfaces for up to 3 days, making commercial deep cleans a more significant part of routine cleaning operations in businesses across the country.

How do professionals clean an office?

It is standard for professional office cleaners to use a checklist, ensuring your office is completely cleaned with each service. Professional cleaners will adapt their list to the needs of your office environment and what’s included in the area.

Our professional cleaners will begin cleaning an office by vacuuming and dusting. We also target common areas, surfaces, trash and recycling, and other tasks that need to be regularly performed to keep the office looking tidy. 

Why choose professional cleaning services?

• Commercial cleaning equipment for a deeper clean
• Organized and planned cleaning systems
• Trained to clean all surfaces safely
• Use the right cleaning chemicals for the job
• Always keep your office looking its best

Our professional cleaners also know the importance of a clean work environment on employee morale, so we detail to make the space feel fresh and sanitary. A clean work environment can also help increase productivity and reduce stress in the workplace.

What does an office deep clean involve?

The deep cleaning your office needs will depend on the specifics of your work environment. When was the last time you had a deep cleaning? How often do you have routine cleanings? How many people share the space? How big is your office? 

You may also be considering a routine disinfectant protocol to reduce the transmission of Covid-19 and improve employee safety in the office.

Here is what you can expect from an office deep clean

General cleaning: The focus of general cleaning is to remove dirt, grime, dust, or any other potential allergens that stick to ceiling fans, light fixtures, shelves, carpet, and blinds. This step also prepares surfaces to be disinfected. 

Surface cleaning: Desks, screens, windows, walls, doors, and furniture surfaces are cleaned with chemicals safe for each material. We also clean office floors during a deep clean, covering all types of flooring within the office space. 

Disinfecting high touch points: High touch points in cleaning refer to the most frequently touched surfaces and priorities for reducing the transmission of viruses. This includes light switches, water coolers, faucets, handles, doorknobs, phones, conference tables, and more.

Electrostatic disinfecting spray: This disinfect is sprayed from a special tool that disperses positivity charged particles, evenly coating surfaces with a wrapping effect for complete protection. Using this technique allows for extended protection against viruses, increasing employee and customer safety during the pandemic.

Machine cleaning bathroom floors: This helps eliminate stubborn odors and remove anything that isn’t easily removed by mopping. Machine scrubbing your floors will also revitalize them, giving them a newer, cleaner look.

Carpet vacuuming and cleaning: Carpet cleanings target dirt, stains, and deeply embedded debris inside your carpet. After a cleaning, it makes a big difference in how your office space looks and feels.
