From daily maintenance to thorough cleaning campaigns and special services - our overview shows which activities are required to keep a building in top form.
This is part of maintenance cleaning
The maintenance cleaning experts ensure that employees, visitors and residents can feel comfortable in buildings. First and foremost, a tidy environment and a clean atmosphere contribute to this. Maintenance cleaning involves regular routine tasks that are carried out daily, weekly or monthly.
1. dusting and vacuuming
The regular removal of dust and dirt from all floor surfaces. Is a basic component of maintenance cleaning. Without regular dusting, the surfaces of furniture, window sills and appliances will turn gray and dull. To prevent this from happening, tables, cupboards and other surfaces are wiped daily with high-quality cleaning agents and microfiber cloths. Any floor coverings such as carpets or laminate are also vacuumed and mopped daily to remove dust, dirt and crumbs. This not only keeps the floor clean, but also allergen-free and hygienic.
Stairwells and corridors can also be cleaned as part of the maintenance cleaning service.
2. waste disposal
Few things create such an uncomfortable atmosphere as overflowing garbage cans or garbage lying around. The maintenance cleaning professionals make sure that this never happens. Every day, all garbage cans are emptied, cleaned and refilled with new bin liners. This also prevents the development of unpleasant odors caused by waste. It goes without saying that waste is disposed of in an environmentally conscious manner, including the separation of waste into plastic, glass, paper and residual waste.
3. sanitary cleaning
A clean and well-maintained sanitary area is the figurehead of any building. Toilets, washbasins, mirrors, taps and - if available - showers are routinely cleaned thoroughly. In addition, consumables such as soap, toilet paper and paper towels are reliably replenished. Cleaning staff often also ensure that the sanitary areas smell fresh and clean.
Especially in public buildings and offices, where many people use the sanitary facilities every day, this service is essential to ensure a high level of hygiene and well-being.
Summary
Maintenance cleaning is the key to a well-maintained and inviting building. It includes dusting and vacuuming, waste disposal and the thorough cleaning of existing sanitary facilities. These regular measures ensure that a building not only remains clean, but also hygienic and aesthetically pleasing. And cleanliness is the calling card of any building.
