The new year is a time for a fresh start. People make resolutions, drop bad habits and set goals for the year. Similarly, the new year is an ideal time to evaluate any changes that need to be made in your business. Keeping your business clean and safe is one of the top factors in success and keeping your team and clients healthy and happy. Is your commercial cleaning company keeping up?

Signs You Need to Hire a New Commercial Cleaning Company

If you are having reoccurring problems with your commercial cleaning company, it may be time to find a new one. You trust a lot more than just cleanliness with your cleaning company. It’s not unreasonable to expect to know your account manager and the cleaners entering your facility.  

Cleaning personnel have uninhibited access to your building at odd hours and are responsible for securely closing shop when cleaning is complete. If your commercial cleaning company is doing an unsatisfactory cleaning job, leaving doors unlocked or constantly changing staff, finding a cleaning company should be on your New Year To-Do List. 

What to Look for in a Commercial Cleaning Company

After a bad experience with a commercial cleaning company (or many), it’s easy to feel deterred from hiring a new one out of fear nothing will change. We can tell you how to differentiate a good cleaning company from a bad one. First and foremost, any cleaning company you hire should be a professional company with adequate commercial insurance that does not subcontract the work. 

Next, you should clarify that the company can service your facility properly and has a quality assurance program. The commercial cleaning company should use a proactive strategy so that the area/project manager takes care of inefficiencies before a customer can ever notice one. When you’ve found a commercial cleaning company that does not subcontract and uses with a proactive approach and quality control program, you can expect quality service consistently.
