Do You Need A Commercial Cleaning Company?
It is no secret that in the past few years the cultural shift has leaned into the importance of the cleanliness and sanitation of our spaces. The health of employees, customers, and visitors has been of great concern for everyone and it has been on the forefront of every company to show how they are ensuring the highest standards in cleanliness. You may not be a cleaning expert or you may just not have the time to clean, especially when a commercial property has visitors in and out of the space frequently. Fortunately, there are commercial cleaning companies that are capable of cleaning your commercial space to your exceptionally high standards. Before you make this important decision, here are some considerations when hiring a commercial cleaning company.
Who Is Cleaning Your Space?
Who cleans your commercial space is just as important as cleaning your space in the first space. Hiring a professional cleaning company means you are opening your doors to the intimate process of cleaning your space to ensure the comfort and safety of your employees and those who visit your space. Checking their website to see how they approach their services and how they handle their clientele. It is also in your best interest to check reviews and testimonials of previous clients to ensure that you’re receiving the best possible service for you and your commercial space.
Walkthrough And Pricing
Now maybe you have looked through the requisite information and determined that there are some good professional cleaning companies that would be a good fit for you and your commercial space. But you need to know how much this is going to cost and what they can offer in terms of service. We recommend that you request a walkthrough with these professionals through your commercial space. This provides the perfect opportunity to explain what areas in your commercial space need to be cleaned and what solutions they are willing to offer to ensure that these areas are cleaned properly. This gives the cleaners a chance to explain what services they can offer and gain a full understanding of their process and learn how the cleaning will be done. This also provides an excellent time to learn how much it would cost to complete this task, do not be afraid to ask about costs early on. It is important that both parties understand the costs of the services and what budget is available. Negotiating price during the walkthrough provides the unique benefit of both parties fully understanding the space and how it is going to be cleaned and maintained, giving a much-needed visual for pricing and understanding the value of the service provided.
Do They Have Liability Insurance?
When you invite a contractor into your commercial space you need to be sure that they have taken the time to invest in your security. Ask if they have liability insurance, and they may say that they don’t have insurance and that they will offer lower prices to compensate for the risk. But the risk is simply not worth the short-term financial gain, in the long run, you could possibly encounter a much higher financial risk. Besides the financial risks you’re also more likely to find that a professional cleaning company that possesses liability insurance is far more likely to be well organized and have more care for the well-being of their employees. When considering whether to hire a cleaning contractor for your commercial space, consider the financial as well as the moral implications that come with liability-insured professional cleaning services.
What Are Their Cleaning Processes?
Understanding their cleaning processes may not be an immediate concern when considering which commercial cleaning company is best suited for your business. However, asking questions about their cleaning process can provide insight into their experience as a professional cleaning company. This is also the perfect opportunity to elaborate on what services you require and any special requests you may have, such as leaving certain areas untouched by the cleaners or focusing on specific areas that require more attention. You will also want to ask what cleaning products they use, to ensure they won’t use products that may irritate skin or be environmentally harmful. Asking these important questions gives the prospective cleaners an opportunity to explain thoroughly how they will satisfy your needs with detailed answers on what cleaners and cleaning processes they will use to optimally clean your space to your exact specifications.
