Now more than ever, ensuring a clean, healthy workplace is paramount. Many businesses across the country are welcoming back their employees. While this is an exciting development, it also brings with it the need for quality commercial janitorial services.

Here at Powerhouse Cleaners, we specialize in professional janitorial services that cover every nook and cranny of your establishment. We pride ourselves on providing environmentally friendly cleaning solutions to keep your facility squeaky clean and healthy.

Are you still on the fence about investing in commercial cleaning for your office building? Here are five compelling reasons to make the switch today.

1. It can help improve your business’s bottom line

Commercial cleaning companies are generally more cost-effective compared to in-house cleaning staff. With the latter, you have to deal with more overheads, administrative expenses, payroll, and insurance. You’ll also have to cover the cost of the cleaning equipment and supplies regularly.

With a commercial janitor service, you don't have to worry about these expenditures, while still enjoying a professionally cleaned workplace week after week.

2. It can help reduce liability risks

Leaving the workplace cleaning up to your employees exposes your company to certain liability risks. Operating specialized cleaning equipment such as reaching ladders and commercial-grade vacuum cleaners may require training that your staff do not have. Even if you’re just asking them to clean the office kitchen, there’s still a risk factor for workplace accidents.

By hiring a commercial cleaning service, you get knowledgeable cleaners who can quickly get the job done so your employees can go about their day with as few interruptions as possible. This also helps reduce the risks of employee mishaps.

3. It can help ensure regulatory compliance

The CDC has set out ‘ready for occupancy’ guidelines for commercial buildings looking to resume business operations. Among the requirements is the need to inspect the premises for potential hazards stemming from prolonged facility shutdowns, such as mildew and mold growth and standing water.

It also calls for proper disinfection measures across the building, particularly areas where employees could have close contact — waiting areas, meeting rooms, break rooms, the cafeteria, and others.

These all fall under the specialty of a professional cleaning crew. They can help you check off those items on the list of requirements, and ensure your building is clean and ready to welcome back employees.

4. It can help with creating a solid first impression

A professionally cleaned business premise impresses your customers. It sends a positive message to them about your commitment to keeping your facility clean and ensuring the wellbeing of your employees.

With commercial janitor services, you can make a wonderful first impression on your customers and make a statement about what you value in your business. No musty odors, no foul-smelling bathrooms, no trash piles — just a fresh, clean workplace that creates a positive experience for your employees and customers.

5. It can help office equipment work better and last longer

From computers to printers, accumulated dust and dirt can quickly lead to increased wear and tear in your business’s electronic equipment. This can lead to more repairs and a shortened lifespan, which in turn, increases your overheads and production downtime.

A professional janitorial company like Powerhouse Cleaners will provide a thorough cleaning of the facility including the equipment. By keeping the dust and dirt away regularly, your office equipment can last longer and therefore save you the costs associated with constant repairs and replacements.
