Spring Cleaning Your Office
This is a subtitle for your new post
Spring cleaning began, as a means of removing the dust and dampness from the winter months. In spring the air is warming, and it was a time to through open the windows, remove the dust and let the fresh air in. This creates - also for humans - a mood of fresh starts, of upbeat energy, and it only comes natural to use this time to detox. This is not only important for your home, but for your office as well.
In business it is a time to declutter. File or through out those boxes and papers that are sitting around, messing up the office and creating a haven for dust and dampness. Spring cleaning can have an impact on your mental health - that fresh start. A clean office and work space helps to foster a sense of pride and satisfaction for your employees.
It is also important on physical health. Removing items that create a trip hazard. The dusting and sanitizing of areas that you haven't been able to get to. We all know that germs spread easily, and a clean and healthy workspace reduces the amount of people that are away sick.
Lastly, but just as important, it presents a clean an organised office space to your clients who visit. This says to your clients, you take pride in your work space, which then transcends to taking pride and care in the work that you do for them.
What Cleaning Can Be Done in a Spring Clean
What Your Staff Can Do
Start with your own staff! As we mentioned, decluttering, filing paper work sitting around, clearing desks of items not used, putting in to storage items no longer required. Setting aside a day specifically to spring clean your office, is a great way to start, otherwise it sits on the shelf of "we'll get around to it", but never actually gets done.
Window Cleaning
After months of rain and damp cold weather, your windows are often really dirty and dusty on the outside, and the inside sees mold starting to form on the windows and around the frames, or in areas that don't get a lot of air flow. Getting a professional window clean is important for a clean, streak free result.
Building Wash
Having a regular building wash of your office or work space is not only important to maintain the exterior paint or wood work, but as your client drives up to your office, this is the first thing that they see, and as we know, if you make a good first impression, it goes a long way to having a positive impact on your business. Professional building washes can be done for multi-levelled buildings, and it is cost effective to incorporate your building wash, with an exterior window clean.
Carpet Cleaning
Carpets are a breeding ground for germs and bugs. Your vinyl, or hard floor surfaces get regularly washed and sanitized, but carpets are only vacuumed. Clients are often shocked when we show them the muddy dirty water that we empty out after cleaning their office carpets. Professional carpet cleaning, using hot water and powerful extraction will get right down into the fibers of the carpet and lift the germs and dirt that has bedded down in them. This will also decrease the dust and allergens in your office, leaving a healthier work place for your staff.
Hard Floor Cleaning
Stripping and polishing of your vinyl is an annual job that brings life and shine back to your vinyl. Polish, just like polishing your car, slowly wears, and regular maintenance is required, leaving your vinyl looking like new again.
Machine scrub and buff of vinyl, polished concrete and tiles. A lot of the new modern vinyl floor coverings don't have polish, but they are not flat like old vinyl. They are often grooved for texture, or to look like wood grain floor covering. General mopping is designed for flat surfaces, but grooves and texture in vinyl and tiles traps dirt and needs an annual machine scrub, to get deep in to the textured surface to lift the dirt. You may be surprised to see the true colour of your floor when it has been deep cleaned.
High Level Cleaning and Dusting
Your day to day cleaning generally only covers areas up to hand height. Often there are high level fans, lighting, window sills that harbors dust, dirt and mold. With health and safety requirements stringent on height work, it is important to have this done by a professional cleaner who can work at heights, and clean and sanitize those hard to get areas.
