How to choose the best cleaning company for your business.
How do I choose the right/best cleaning service for my company? How do I get to raise my confidence level to let some ‘stranger’ into my company? How do I filter out the opportunity cost amongst the variety of every commercial cleaning service out there?
These, are amongst the plethora of questions that keep coming into mind when such a need arises. Well, truth is, with the advent of great marketing and sale schemes available nowadays, it’s easy to be wooed towards the wrong choice. Hence the risen need for concise, accurate, and truthful documentation(s) on how to weed out falsehood.
What should guide your choice
The English Language Learners defines choosing as the act of picking or deciding between two or more possibilities
- the opportunity or power to choose between two or more possibilities: the opportunity or power to make a decision
- a range of things that can be chosen
So there are a lot of factors that need to be considered especially when addressing quality sanitation.
Experience/Knowledgeability
One common issue which managers often find when working with commercial cleaners is that the cleaning staff are just not as knowledgeable as they should/ought to be. A great professional cleaning service will have all the right cleaning know-how, even when it comes to tricky, high-traffic areas like in malls.
Not only will a great cleaning service know the right techniques to provide a thorough clean and sanitation, but they will also know exactly how and when to use certain tools and machinery. They will have up-to-date cleaning to answer any customer concerns or questions regarding cleaning methods.
Attention to detail
Like the idiom goes “God is in the details”. This speaks volumes to the extent of your expectations.
Attention to detail is so important, and somewhat combines other practices such as working beyond expectation and being knowledgeable.
A company that cares about its work and is knowledgeable in its practices will also pay close attention to detail. This means cleaning those often-forgotten corners, ensuring professionalism even when it concerns tasks that could be deemed negligible, and not just cleaning but also sanitizing areas that require it.
Reliability
Time is money(literally & figuratively), when your cleaning service arrives late, early, or at unscheduled times, it can completely disrupt your workplace’s rhythm.
A professional cleaning company will need to be reliable. You won’t have to guess when they’ll show up! Many experienced cleaners will work with their clients to create a cleaning schedule that works well for everyone – a schedule that helps ensure the least distractions and disruptions to daily life. Dependable cleaners also provide dependable work! You can rest assured that every clean will be as good as the last.
Fully licensed and Insured
As a manager, you often worry about property loss or any form of injury which may occur at work. The same has to be applied at any cleaning company which considers itself to be at a professional level.
You’ll want to make sure the service you choose has a business license and the proper insurance which can fully cover both property damage and liability and that they carry employee bonding, too. This way, if something in your home does happen to get damaged or if someone on the cleaning crew sustains an injury while in your home, you are protected from loss and liability. This is one of the first things you should look for.
Reputability
The right cleaning company should be able to produce references from happy clients, whether they’ve served them in the past or are currently working with them. In addition to the references offered by the company, do your research. The use of online reviews as the review feature on Google makes it simple to see who’s saying what about any company.
What everyone needs is quality
Choosing an experienced and professional commercial cleaning service company is the best way to ensure you get the quality results you want.
