Is the company you hired doing the service? Many companies offer low ball prices to get the service. Once the service is acquired they offer the contract to a 3 rd party to do the work. Both have the intention to make money from the contract. However many times the work lacks quality and short cuts are taken to get the job done as quickly as possible. No doubt this system may work for “nationwide contracts” but from small to medium size businesses this may in fact be a bad choice. When you have a subcontractor coming in to your facility they are limited in any extra needed changes to be done in the request you may have. It takes time for them to receive the ok to perform the work & there may be an increase in the contract.

What is the real cost of hiring the wrong janitorial service? Hiring the wrong person can have a major impact on your lifestyle, home or company. Why? Because janitorial firms are responsible for the presentation, safety and security of your building and its occupants. I have learned from my many years of experience in the janitorial industry that all too often customers don’t ask enough questions of prospective janitorial vendors.

How wrong janitorial service can affect you? ...

Why you should have your carpet cleaned Just as the clothes we wear need regular washing to keep them fresh and hygienic; our carpets also require periodic cleaning. Accumulated soil and grit are major causes of reduced carpet and fabric life, and enable destructive and health harmful mites and bacteria to work unchecked. Cleaning costs are minimal when you consider the replacement cost of carpets and furnishings, so regular cleaning makes economic sense too.   If you are not fully convinced of the benefits of carpet cleaning, consider the following ways the process leads to a healthier home. Trapped pollutants are eliminated by carpet cleaning: A dirty carpet can retain several sources of indoor air pollutants, including pet dander and everyday dirt and dust. Toxic airborne gases can adhere to these particles and also get trapped within the carpet. These toxic gases can be released through everyday activities such as vacuuming and walking across the carpe...
