Helpful Things You Need to Know About Office Cleaning Services

Professional office cleaning is always better than a cleaning job you do yourself

The first thing to understand is what’s included in a professional office clean. When RAMS Cleaning Services does an office clean for you, we put together a customised service that provides for as much or as little as you need to be done. Our range of office cleaning services is extensive and can include tasks such as:

• Workspace cleaning, dusting, vacuuming
• Bathroom cleaning and sanitising
• Kitchen/lunchroom tidy, cleaning and disinfecting
• Floor cleaning and polishing
• Spills and stains cleaning
• Walls and window cleaning
• Surface polishing
• Rubbish removal
• Cleaning common areas and reception
• Restocking supplies (toilet paper, bags, soap, etc)
• Nightly, bi-weekly, weekly services

It’s not likely that you’ll find anyone who wants to clean the office at the end of their shift with the attention to detail that we offer. Let us take that stress away for you.

A professional office clean will make your staff feel valued

Investing in a professional office cleaning service sends the message to your staff that you care about them enough to make their working environment as comfortable, hygienic and healthy as possible. Just as you would restock their stationery supplies when needed or upgrade their phone or computer to make their work easier, you also want to provide them with a clean environment to work in.

Most employees appreciate having their desks and shelves dusted and wiped down, their rubbish bin emptied, their dirty dishes removed to the kitchen, etc. However, they might really notice it is in the common areas. Having the staff kitchen, bathrooms, changing areas, or locker rooms professionally cleaned by someone else goes a long way when building company morale.

In offices where commercial cleaning services are used, staff morale is better, sick days are fewer, and employee retention is generally higher. Professional office cleaning services are a great way to show your appreciation to the staff and help them love where they work.

Commercial office cleaning will make your customers feel better – and possibly buy more

First impressions aren’t the only ones that count. Every touchpoint a customer or client has with your business is an opportunity to impress them. Office cleanliness goes a long way here. Your customers will notice whether the reception desk is clean and tidy. They’ll see the coffee cup stains on the waiting room table. They’ll spot the bird droppings on the windows, the stains on the carpet, or the mould on the bathroom walls that you have become immune to. Individually these things may not mean a lot to you. But add them all up, and they send the message to your customers or prospects that you don’t put enough effort in, that your attention to detail is poor, or that the business is financially struggling and can’t afford the upkeep.

We’re not suggesting you need to have freshly cut flowers in the reception area, three-ply toilet paper in guest bathrooms, or the latest iPad check-in system at reception. The simple act of keeping your offices professionally cleaned is enough to show you care. Look after them, and they’ll continue doing business with you. Impress them, and they may refer you to friends and family.

Professional office cleaning makes everyone more productive

It has been proven that people work better in clean and tidy environments. An uncluttered workspace leads to a focused mindset clear of distractions. As you would close multiple browser windows and silence your email notifications if you need uninterrupted time on a task, the same holds for your physical workspace. A dirty or messy workspace is distracting and unsettling.

When employees return to a clean office each day, they see that you’re paying attention to their health and wellbeing. They begin each day with a clean slate (quite literally, a clean desk). It all adds up to them having pride in where they work and feeling good about their job.
