Contract cleaning Peterborough – 01733 571467

Tuesday, April 17th, 2012

Like every home and office around the country, your building will need to be cleaned regularly. That’s why at some stage you are likely to employ the services of a contract cleaning company.

If you live in Peterborough, for example, there are lots of contract cleaning specialists to choose from.

So, how do you ensure that your chosen contract cleaning business is the right one for your Peterborough based firm?

Outsourcing your cleaning to a third party can save you time and money, but first you have to find the right contract cleaning company for your Peterborough business.

An experienced and professional contract cleaning firm should take the time to find out about the needs of your Peterborough company so that you are matched with the right staff and the right equipment to do a professional job.

The contract cleaning specialists you choose should also be up to speed with health and safety requirements so that they operate safely while on site at your Peterborough business.

Make sure you are really clear about what you want the contract cleaning company to do in their role. When they visit your Peterborough office have a checklist ready with your requirements. It will help you get the most from the meeting and enable you to test their suitability for the job.

Do you want the contract cleaning company to clean your complete office or only some of it? Does this include computer equipment, windows etc?

If your Peterborough site includes a factory then the contract cleaning specialists will need to draw up a detailed cleaning plan to determine whether they have the right staff for your requirements.

You also need to think about how often you want the contract cleaning business to clean your Peterborough base. Every day? Once a week? Perhaps some areas will need cleaning more than others. All this needs to be carefully thought about.

Finally, before you employ a contract cleaning business check out their specialist skills. Do they have the right credentials to clean your firm in Peterborough? For example, do they have the right people and the right equipment for graffiti removal?

All of these things need to be thought about carefully as you select your contract cleaning specialists. If you get this right you can look forward to a clean Peterborough office or warehouse that you and your colleagues can be proud of.

Pole Window Cleaning Peterborough | 01733 571467

pole-fed-cleaningA Pole Window Cleaning System allows most windows to be cleaned from the ground level with extended telescopic poles. This means that there are no wobbly ladders or steps needed, eliminating the danger of slipping or falling, making cleaning quick and easy. A Pole Window Cleaning System peterborough makes cleaning quick and easy, solving the problems of algae, bird droppings and dirt build up on high and low level windows.

The Pole Window Cleaning System are very rigid and easily controlled, making window cleaning safe and easy. There are different heads and accessories which are interchangeable to achieve the best cleaning results. The cotton cloths will produce a superior window clean on glass or polycarbonate compared to the brush heads. The cotton heads will have far greater contact on the surface area, helped by the weight of the de-ionised water used to clean.

New Working At Height Regulations

In 2005 new working at height regulations came into play, which brought into question whether ladders should be used when cleaning windows. In line with these regulations, water fed pole window cleaning are obvious alternative methods which could often be used to avoid the risk of working at height. Working from a ladder is a very risky business, meaning water fed pole window cleaning systems are here to stay, despite the common myth that water fed pole window cleaning peterborough systems are not good for domestic work.

Water fed pole window cleaning systems are suitable for domestic applications. If you work with the pole system housed in a van, then a 100m hose reel will reach most houses in a small cul-de-sac. If the domestic houses are scattered, then a portable trolley or backpack system is more suitable. Once the operator has developed their skills, any extra time spent setting up the window cleaning equipment is more than compensated by the time gained in cleaning the windows.

The thought of squirting windows with pure water from a garden hose pipe attached to a telescopic pole with a brush of the end of it does not sound convincing. However, not to have to use any chemicals or detergents is a great benefit and will increase your green credentials. The pure water used allows windows to be cleaned remarkably well by brushing off the dirt with a soft bristled brush and at the same time the dirt is rinsed away. Once the window dries the customer will see that the windows are spotless, all the minerals and impurities having been removed from the water during its purification process.

Privacy

Of course, another benefit is the privacy that the client gains. Cleaning upstairs windows from the ground using a water fed pole window cleaning peterborough system means that you won’t be climbing ladders and accidentally peering in the windows whilst cleaning them. Pole system cleaning also ensures that no damage is caused to the building, which has been known with traditional ladders or cradles.  Under the current health and safety legislation, many businesses will only use operators who use the water fed pole window cleaning peterborough system.

domestic1On the vast majority of window cleaning, on both residential and commercial properties, water fed pole system is far more efficient than the manual approach using a ladder. The equipment just needs to be taken off the van and is instantly read to use, due to the fact that the systems are ladderless, and can still reach up to 6 stories, the time spent cleaning windows is significantly reduced. On average you can expect a water fed pole window cleaning peterborough service to be approximately 30% faster on residential window cleaning while up to a massive 50% faster on any commercial properties.
