Regular office cleaning in London is essential in maintaining a hygienic workspace. With regular office cleaning, your work place becomes welcoming for visitors and staff, reducing the spread of illness and absenteeism.
When it comes to answering the question on how often should you clean your London office, there are some important factors we take into consideration here at Sloane Cleaning Services:
One of the first things we taken into consideration when determining how often your office should be cleaned is the number of employees in the office, along with visitors. Small businesses with a handful of staff do well on a weekly clean, though toilets, kitchens, and break rooms should be cleaned each day.
If you have up to twenty employees, we recommend two to three times weekly, while larger offices benefit from daily cleaning. Remember, all office kitchens, toilets, and break rooms should be cleaned daily, or multiple times daily in larger offices.
We also take the type of business you are operating into consideration when determining how often your office should be cleaned. Small offices, no matter what business you are in, should be cleaned at least once a week, though industrial businesses should be cleaned daily.
The size of your office, along with layout, also determines cleaning frequency. Large open plan office designs need regular cleaning to keep them spotless and hygienic, while smaller offices with separate office cubicles can be cleaned less frequently.
At Sloane Cleaning Services, we also take your budget and existing resources into consideration. If you have in-house cleaners, then use them as much as possible, only using our services for deep cleaning on a regular basis. If you have a limited cleaning budget, we can work with you, determining the best cleaning schedule, while providing you with a regular cleaning checklist that can be implemented, ensuring your office remains clean between professional cleans.
Now that we have looked at your employee numbers, office size and layout, budget, and industry, you need to focus on certain areas:
Toilets should be cleaned daily, no matter your office size or number of employees. Toilets are germ hotspots. Toilets, basins, surfaces, and door handles should be thoroughly cleaned and sanitised, while hand towels, hand soap, and toilet paper should be replenished daily.
Your office reception is the first impression most clients have of your business, so you want to ensure it's a great one. Your reception should be kept clean and well-maintained at all times. It requires daily dusting and vacuuming, along with any rubbish being disposed of. You will also want to schedule regular deep cleaning, including carpet and upholstery cleaning, eliminating any dirt that gets deep in the fibres, while eliminating any unpleasant odours.
While you don't have to focus on your windows daily, or even weekly, they do require regular cleaning. During routine office cleaning, any smudges and marks should be removed from the windows, but we do recommend window cleaning on a regular basis, allowing for an abundance of natural light, extending the lifespan of your windows, while providing a presentable and clean office space.
