Being A Great Boss In A Commercial Cleaning Business

A commercial cleaning  business basically refers to office buildings, schools, retail stores, factories, car parks, hospitals and the like. This business involves the cost of heavy machinery and can be a huge start up cost. To start a commercial cleaning business, you really need to do your homework and very thoroughly at that. It isn't a matter of just saying, "i'm going out and purchasing a truck load of cleaning equipment and I'm gonna make it rich"! If that's your mentality, you are going to fail and lose all your money in the process. there is a lot to consider when deciding to start commercial cleaning business. consider the following start up facts before you go any further.

Commercial cleaning can incorporate many facets of cleaning. You can go into industrial cleaning, office cleaning,  domestic cleaning and the list goes on. the first thing you would need to do is pick what area you are going to specialize in. There's no use it doing domestic cleaning and buying a truck load of commercial cleaning equipment for that. Using heavy commercial equipment in someones house could rip the place apart. Not a thing you want happen to you. 

Think about how you are going to market your commercial cleaning business. Are you going to have a website? If you are, then you would need to get it optimized properly so that people can find your business amongst the myriads of results that would come up in their search. What about a name? Make sure that you chose a name that has something to do with cleaning so that you can register that domain name. For example, it's easier to get a site ranked that is called www.professionacleaning.com than one that's called www.joeblow.com. Your main keywords for the first one could be, cleaning and professional cleaning. For the second one, joe blow means nothing in relation to a cleaning business. It's always better to have your keywords in your domain name.

There's quite a bit to the process of starting up a cleaning business. Do it right the first time and you wont be sorry for any decisions you make along the way to success.

Commercial Cleaning In Melbourne/Strip And Seal A Floor

One of the most time consuming and tricky aspects of commercial cleaning, is the task of stripping and sealing a vinyl floor. there are many problems associated with it and if you don't know what you are doing, then the results can be anything but impressive. A decent commercial cleaner that's worth his weight would know how to do a fantastic job when attempting to strip and seal your vinyl or most other types of flooring.

First off, the area needs to be cleared of all furniture and other bits and pieces. Then the area needs to be thoroughly vacuumed as any dust left on the floor will ruin the glass like finish you are hoping to achieve. Most office cleaning companies have all the proper equipment needed to do this properly. Once the are is clean, a mop and bucket should be used to thoroughly wet the area with the stripper in the bucket. the water should always be as hot as possible, not boiling though as that may damage the floor and not to mention the fumes in the steam from the stripper. Once the stripper solution is down, some steel wool should be used around the edges but always wear gloves as the solution can be very caustic. Remove all scuff marks with the steel wool. then run a buffer with the vac off using the correct type of pad depending on how much old polish needs to be removed. Run the buffer length wise and then cross wise to make sure the whole surface area of the floor is covered. Once that's done, use a wet vac to remove the stripper off the floor followed by a clean mop to clean up any streaks and excess stripper.

You should let it dry before giving it a final buff to seal the floor. Most commercial cleaning companies that I have ever worked with usually leave that last step out for times sake but if you don't seal the floor before laying down new polish, the finish wont be as good. Once the floor is completely dry, run a vacuum over the area to pick up any loose dust which remains on the floor. Give the floor at least three coats of a suitable polish and wait till the coat is touch dry before applying the next coat. At no time should you buff the polish between coats. Try and allow at least eight to ten hours hardening time before the floor is used. if the polish is too 'soft', then any scratches or scuff marks will become permanent when the polish hardens. this hardening usually takes between 24-48 hours depending on the polish itself.

If the commercial cleaning company you have employed for your office cleaning doesn't use this simple method of  stripping and sealing your vinyl floors, ask them why and if they seem to be taking short cuts with your office cleaning, then give them the flick. At Ringwood Property Services we don't take shortcuts and stay until the job is done. Our commercial cleaning team is a dedicated lot.

What Makes A Good Commercial Cleaning Company Over A Bad One

What makes a good commercial cleaning company over a bad one? Let's face it. it's happened to everyone of us if we have ever employed a commercial cleaner to take care of our office cleaning or to do our property maintenance. It's just a fact of life and really, it's not a biggie. There are plenty of commercial cleaning companies out there. What is it though that makes one cleaning company better than another? Is it that one has better cleaning techniques than another or is it more to do with the attitude of the staff that they might employ?

It doesn't take much skill for example to push a vacuum cleaner around in a commercial property. Nor does it take much skill to swish a toilet brush around in a bowl. What it does take is the proper attitude. Anyone can vacuum carpet. Anyone can clean a toilet bowl. What sets a lot of good cleaners apart from bad cleaners is their attitude. Let me explain. In all commercial cleaning jobs, to vacuum and clean toilets is a must. If the cleaner has the attitude that near enough is good enough, then they wont last very long in the job. Their attitude should be that if they get paid to do a specific task, they do it to the best of their abilities and to the standard that is required by the commercial cleaning company as well as the client. I have seen far too many cleaners over the years try and get away with cutting corner after corner in the hope of being able to get away early for whatever reasons. Some have the attitude that 'I don't want to be here, I hate this job'. Well, so be it then. I fired people like that because it ended up costing me money and sometimes the commercial cleaning contract as well. Not worth the price.

A good office cleaning company will always put the client over a lazy cleaner that they might have unfortunately employed. At Ringwood Property services we try and filter our prospective cleaners as much as possible and get the ones with a good attitude towards the type of work they are about to partake in. If down the track a bad attitude manifests itself, we simply terminate them. In the end, it's the client and we as the commercial cleaning company that suffer if we keep ones like that on permanently.

Property Maintenance In Melbourne For Landlords

Property maintenance in Melbourne is still an affordable concept. The rental market seems still to be a profitable one but one of the problems  landlords are usually confronted is when tenants are not satisfied with the maintenance the landlord had provided. If you are a landlord in such predicament, there are some things you need to know so you can effectively respond to your tenants’ maintenance requests.

A lot of landlords have encountered  irrational tenants, who only report unjustifiable complaints. The best way to handle tenants like that is to keep a record and make up some  complaint forms, list of materials for the repairs, schedule matrix of maintenance, inspection reports and receipts. These  are only some of the most important papers you must keep track of.

If you hire a property maintenance company, all the documents mentioning their maintenance work must be submitted to you. In addition, communication between you and the manager or personnel should always be open and very honest. These days there are various means of communicating such as emails and phone calls.
If you keep an emergency funds account this  can help you to immediately respond to valid repairs requests from your tenants. Upon hiring a property maintenance company, find out  if it offers a trust account to be used solely for maintenance in case you are unavailable at the time of  the reported  damages. This may require a few hundred dollars, but think that such amount would be a lot less compared to the expenses that might arise when damages are not fixed in a prompt and timely manner.

No one can foretell when damages would occur. You still have ways  to prevent them. Make sure you have regular inspection at least once a month. This is also your way to be ensured that the tenants abide by their task to take care of the house or unit they are renting from you. When you employ the services of a property maintenance company the  measures you  implement, handling complaints would be the least of your worries.

At Ringwood Property Services, we can take care of all your property maintenance needs in Melbourne. Anything from small residential complexes to large commercial office buildings is well within our capabilities. Just visit our website for details.

A workplace that is clean can prove to be very motivating for your employees and enable them to perform at their best. A well maintaned office proves to be an extension of  their home space and makes your employees  very comfortable which translates into a higher workplace productivity.

Commercial cleaning today involves a lot of high tech equipment and sometimes complex procedures. It's not as cut and dry as in used to be maybe 20 or so years ago. Commercial cleaning  requires a broad understanding of the office design and a tailor made approach to ensure that every corner of the office is completely clean at all times. removing stains from the floors and carpets involves a knowledgeable use of chemicals and most times natural cleaners. Your office cleaning needs should not be left up to any Joe Blow that blows in off the street promising you a fantastic job at a rock bottom price. That will ever happen.

Commercial cleaning also involves cleaning and disinfecting the toilets to ensure that it is completely hygienic and perfect for all your employees. A clean bathroom maintains complete hygiene in your office and also leaves very good impressions on your customers and clients.
