Factors Affecting Commercial Cleaning Costs

Maintaining a clean business doesn’t just look good. It’s also essential for employee well-being, customer satisfaction, and overall operations. 

 

Omnia360’s janitorial services play an essential role in providing commercial cleaning services. If your company is considering adding janitorial services to existing integrated facility solutions, you’ve probably asked, “How much does commercial cleaning cost?”  

 

In this blog, we will discuss the various factors that influence commercial cleaning costs.

 

Building Type and Business Type 

 

First, the size and complexity of a facility influence cost. Larger facilities with multiple floors, rooms, or specialized spaces require more time and resources. 

 

Additionally, facilities with complex architectural designs or high-traffic areas may require more frequent or intensive cleaning, further impacting costs.

The frequency of cleaning services is another factor. Facilities that need daily cleaning will have higher expenses than those with weekly or monthly schedules. Omnia360 works closely with our clients to establish routines aligning with their needs and budgets.

 

Another consideration is the type of facility. Commercial cleaning services can vary depending on whether the facility is an office building, healthcare facility, manufacturing plant, or retail space. Each business has unique cleaning requirements and standards that affect pricing.

Commercial cleaning includes a wide range of services like dusting, vacuuming, mopping, window cleaning, restroom sanitation, and more. The scope of services required by a client directly impacts costs. Some facilities may opt for basic cleaning, while others may request specialized services.

 

Omnia360 works with clients to establish detailed cleaning specifications. These specifications outline each cleaning service’s exact tasks, standards, and expectations. 

 

Labor and Equipment

 

The quality of cleaning equipment and supplies used can influence costs. Some businesses have specific preferences for eco-friendly or high-quality cleaning products, which vary in price. 

 

The labor force required to clean a facility is another factor that can affect prices. Consider factors such as labor wages, benefits, training, and supervision. Additionally, facilities with particular security or access requirements may require background-checked personnel, further affecting labor costs.

Occasionally, clients may require emergency cleaning services or special requests outside the regular cleaning schedule. Under Omnia360’s integrated facility solutions, we create comprehensive plans to account for these requests and customize services to your building. 

 

Location

 

The facility’s location can also play a role in commercial cleaning costs. 

Labor and overhead costs vary significantly between regions, affecting the overall pricing structure. Integrated facility management companies consider local factors when providing cost estimates to clients.

Advantages of Commercial Janitorial Services

Health and Hygiene: The COVID-19 pandemic has shown the importance of maintaining a clean and hygienic environment. 

Commercial janitorial services follow protocols to ensure that surfaces, high-touch areas, and shared spaces are regularly sanitized and disinfected. This proactive approach minimizes the spread of germs, reducing the risk of illnesses among occupants.

Positive first impressions: First impressions matter, especially for businesses that welcome clients or customers into their spaces. A well-maintained and clean environment speaks volumes about a company’s commitment to professionalism.

Occupant comfort and productivity: A clutter-free workspace contributes to occupant comfort and productivity. Employees are more likely to thrive in an organized and tidy environment.

Sustainable practices: Commercial janitorial services can adopt sustainable cleaning practices, using eco-friendly products and implementing waste reduction strategies. 

Customized solutions: Different spaces have unique cleaning needs.  Omnia360’s janitorial services can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of different industries, ensuring that the cleaning protocols address the distinct challenges each sector faces.

How Regular Janitorial Inspections Save You Money by Omnia360

Janitorial inspections are a vital tool in your facility management arsenal. You may not think about janitorial services or inspections as important parts of your business. But implementing regular janitorial inspections can save you money in the long run. Omnia360 Facility Solutions explains in today’s blog.

Create a Checklist

First things first. Create a comprehensive checklist of things that your janitorial staff needs to keep an eye on during their rounds. This checklist focuses on all areas for cleaning, maintenance, and inspection. Why should you have regular inspections? Checklists are one sure way to get a true picture of the shape your facility is in.

What’s on your checklist? Quick-and-easy items. Paper towel dispensers filled and working? Check. Toilets not clogged or dirty? Check. Break room trash can empty? Check. Checklists should follow along with your janitorial staff’s ordinary course of duties. Once you create the checklist, it’s a standard tool your janitorial staff can use for years to come, and it can be updated as your needs change.

Train Janitors to Look for Problems

Janitors typically know when something is amiss because they understand what your facility should look like. Train your janitorial staff to look for problems. If there is a leak, sagging ceiling, misshapen pipe, or wrong temperature in a room, janitorial crews will notice. Then they’ll talk to the right personnel to correct the problem. 

A drafty window frame might not need attention right away, but a constantly dripping pipe does. Omnia360 can take care of these types of plumbing problems and maintenance issues.

Checklists Can Uncover Larger Issues

That small oil spot on the floor? It might uncover a larger issue. Perhaps an expensive piece of machinery passed that spot a few hours before a janitor spotted it. No one knew it had an oil leak until your janitorial crew noticed it. Your maintenance techs take a look at the equipment and correct the problem immediately before the oil leak causes overheating or large concerns that require the replacement of an engine, crankcase, or the entire machine. 

Omnia360’s team can look for these types of issues so you can prevent bigger problems that cost more money, shorten the lifespan of machinery, or cause expensive downtime.
