Secrets of a Commercial Cleaning Contractor

Are all cleaning companies of the same quality?

Many go to great lengths through marketing and advertising to look great to attract customers. In any service, how good they are is determined by the price and quality of work done. I will offer an inside view of some commercial cleaning secrets about the professional cleaning industry that you didn’t know. I hope other cleaning companies don’t attack me for letting the cat out of the bag. Oh well, I want to work for you, not them. Before we get started, let me gross you out with a few facts:

Have you ever dropped a piece of food on your desk and eaten it? You may as well have eaten food off the toilet; it is cleaner than the desktop. Gross right?

This office smells excellent; it must be super clean.

Many cleaning companies add scent to their mop bucket to give the impression of being clean. Not a bad tactic, but it should not replace cleaning.

Underbidding to get the contract

The cleaning company that underbids can’t afford to take the necessary time to clean your facility correctly. These practices tend to lead to corners being cut and unresolved issues between the customer and the cleaning company. Beware of any company that is eager to underbid all of the competition. Ask yourself what they are willing to sacrifice in quality control to get the job?

Bathrooms are not always clean; they are just polished.

Light-colored tiles can hide many of the disgusting debris in the bathroom. Many cleaning companies will polish up the noticeable fixtures like the faucet, mirror or add blue liquid to the toilet water to make it clean. Bathrooms are gross; urine splatters will blanket the walls and floor and is corrosive. Just flushing the toilet can cause feces to travel 6 feet. Think about that next time you are in the bathroom.
