Is it time to fire your professional cleaning service?

office cleaningIt is a tedious and timely process to find the right professional cleaning company for your office or facility. There are many factors to consider but first you must determine if you need to fire your current cleaning company. If you are inclined to dismiss your cleaning company, you are probable over due to let them go. Facility directors usually put up with a mediocre company too long because they are already so busy handling all the other aspects of the business. There are five reasons to replace your cleaning service with another company.

  1. They just don’t care. Apathy is contagious so if your cleaning company does’t seem to care, its time for them to go. There are cleaning companies out there that take their work very seriously and care about their customers. It is worth the time and effort to find such a company.

  2. Inconsistency. You need to set the bar very high for this standard and you need to demand consistency. You need to set high expectations, communicate them to your cleaning service and do not settle for sporadic quality in your service. 

  3. Training and Professionalism. Your cleaning service is a critical component to the success of your business. A cleaning service does’t just clean your toilets but employs a knowledge to properly clean and care for every part of your facility to provide safety and health for your employees and clients. Whether you are interested in green cleaning or just solid cleaning, a company that routinely trains their cleaners will be prepared to employ the most up to date products and procedures to benefit your facility. If your current cleaning service doesn’t consistently train their workers they will not provide the service you need and deserve.  

  4. People problems. Cleaning services that cut corners to save money will ultimately need to be replaced to provide for a better service. Issues like improper screening, paying under the table and improper training will negatively impact your business. Also, when people are not valued in a cleaning service they tend not to care about the quality of their work and this leads to a high turn over which can increase security and service concerns.

  5. Unresponsiveness. Whether your company simply doesn’t have a system in place to handle complaints or concerns or it just takes to long to hear back, it is unacceptable to have an unresponsive cleaning company. It is the single most important requirement to having a good working relationship with your cleaning service.  

So you decide to fire your cleaning service. Now the challenge is to find the right service for your business. A little work can lead to a great value for your dollar and the smooth maintenance of your building later. There are companies out there that hire, screen. train and manage an excellent work force. Look for one that will offer real time responsiveness and carefully articulated systems that you can count on to provide the best service possible.  Gator Cleaning Solutions would love to work with you to provide this service for your office or building facility.

School restrooms can often be overlooked and taken for granted, but they are a vital part of the educational experience. From providing a safe and comfortable space for students to take care of their hygiene needs to create a sense of community, school restrooms play an important role in the daily lives of students. In this blog post, we'll discuss the importance of school restrooms, the challenges they face, and some ways to improve them. As mentioned, school restrooms are an essential part of a student's day. Not only do they serve a practical purpose, but they also help create a sense of community. By providing a safe space for students to take care of their needs, restrooms are an important part of fostering a sense of security. Unfortunately, school restrooms are often neglected and suffer from a lack of resources and maintenance. This can lead to dirty and even dangerous restrooms that can cause health problems for students. Often times students communicate the need to wait until they get home to use the restroom. This can be because the restrooms are dirty, lack of toilet tissue or paper towel, or fixtures are broken or inoperable. Fortunately, there are some simple ways to improve school restrooms and create a safe and comfortable environment for students. One way to improve the restroom experience is to be sure the restrooms are regularly cleaned and maintained. This includes ensuring that all facilities are in working order and that any issues are addressed in a timely manner. In addition, the restrooms should be stocked with adequate supplies, such as soap and toilet paper. Ultimately, school restrooms are an important part of the educational experience and should be given the attention they deserve. By implementing these simple steps, schools can create a safe and comfortable environment for their students.
