Cleaning professional

Cleaning your workspace is important. It keeps your employees healthy and your customers coming back. But what kind of cleaning do you need? Basic cleaning, deep cleaning, or sanitizing? And when should you choose each one? In this blog post, we will go over the differences between a basic clean, deep clean, and sanitizing.

We will also discuss when a business should choose each type of cleaning service. If you would like more information about which type of cleaning your office needs, or with what frequency, please reach out to us at Downtown Window Cleaning! We would be happy to help!

Basic Cleaning

Basic cleaning is the most common type of service we offer. Many businesses choose to have basic cleaning done for their office on a regular basis. Basic cleaning should be done regularly to keep your business tidy and free of dirt and debris.

Basic cleaning services with Downtown Window Cleaninginclude dusting, light cleaning on kitchen surfaces, complete cleaning of bathrooms, vacuuming or sweeping, and damp-mopping floors throughout. Basic cleaning services might also include taking out trash and recycling and replenishing supplies such as paper towels and soap. This type of cleaning should be done regularly—usually on a weekly or bi-weekly basis at minimum. Any longer in between intervals and you risk your garbage overflowing and your bathrooms becoming less than pleasant!

Some businesses choose to have daily, weekly, or monthly basic cleaning services. This helps keep the daily debris and dust that may come from everyday use at a minimum and keeps your business looking clean and professional.

Deep Cleaning

Deep cleaning is a more thorough clean than basic cleaning. A thorough deep clean is needed less frequently than basic cleaning, but it is still important for businesses to have it done on a regular basis.

Some businesses choose to have quarterly or semi-annual deep cleaning services. This helps to remove the built-up dirt and debris that regular basic cleaning might not get. Deep cleaning your business even just once a year can help keep your business looking its best.

Deep cleaning services with Downtown Window Cleaninginclude dusting and wiping all furnishings, window frames/sills, door frames and knobs, light fixtures; thorough cleaning in the kitchen, including inside and outside of kitchen cabinets and all appliances; thorough cleaning of bathroom, including inside vanities and medicine cabinets; vacuuming and sweeping floors, and wet-mopping throughout. Deep cleaning services may also include removing cobwebs and vacuuming HVAC vents.

Sanitizing

Sanitizing is a type of cleaning that is done to remove bacteria and germs. This type of cleaning is important for businesses that want to create a safe and healthy environment for their employees and customers.

With the recent COVID-19 pandemic, many businesses have taken extra caution in keeping their office spaces sanitized by making sanitizing a more regular cleaning service. Whether you choose to sanitize your office daily, weekly, monthly, semi-annually, or annually, putting the safety and health of your employees first is always a good option.

Sanitizing services with Downtown Window Cleaninginclude sanitizing and disinfecting high-traffic areas and items. This includes wiping all high-touch surfaces and furnishing (light switches, doorknobs, desks, keyboards, handrails, etc.), disinfecting bathrooms and kitchens, and mopping floors with disinfectant solutions.

This service can be tailored to your needs. It can be as simple as wiping and mopping, or can be as thorough as using machinery to spray all rooms and furnishings with disinfecting mist.
