Finding the Right Commercial Cleaning Companies
The commercial cleaning industry has been around for a long time. Perhaps, the chimney sweeps of Victorian times could be considered as being the first businesses in this industry. Needless to say, the industry has matured since then and in the 21st century, the market for commercial cleaning companies is large. According to market research, the commercial cleaning sector generates around £5bn in revenue shared between around 11,000 cleaning companies employing nearly half a million people.
The services offered by commercial cleaning companies are extensive and can be tailored to the specific requirements of each individual client. Many cleaning companies offer a wide variety of cleaning services to both individuals and business clients, such as floors, carpets, tiles, partition and other walls, suspended ceilings, lighting, furniture, window cleaning, deep cleans of sanitary conveniences and washing facilities, kitchens and dining areas, telephones, computers and other IT equipment, external cleaning of stonework, brickwork, cladding, roofs and other parts of your buildings, litter picking, and removal of graffiti.
When it comes to selecting a commercial cleaning company, it’s essential to choose the right partner for your cleaning project. Selecting the cheapest option may not be the best idea, as these businesses may lack the experience and specialised equipment of established cleaning companies. Therefore, it’s vital to locate reputable cleaning companies that can provide quality services and assurance that in the event of any damage, the cleaning company is insured.

How do I find a reputable commercial cleaning company in Cardiff?
Unfortunately, because many of the tasks can be carried out by unskilled labour using minimal equipment, you need to be very careful when choosing the right partner for your cleaning project. Choosing the cheapest may not be the best idea. These businesses may be well-intentioned, but they just won’t have the experience and specialised equipment of companies like ourselves to do the job effectively. At best, cleaning will be poor, at worst, damage can be done to your assets and premises thus it is essential that you locate a reputable business to whom you can outsource your cleaning and feel comfortable that in the event something did go wrong, the cleaning company were insured.
For most businesses, the starting point for finding a supplier of commercial cleaning services in Cardiff will be the internet. Take a good look through the website, a reputable company will have been thorough; their site will contain the business details, companies house registration plus clear terms of trading. The details of what services they offer will be sufficiently detailed to make sure potential clients can see exactly what they will be getting.
You should also check to make sure that they are fully insured and can guarantee that health and safety will be maintained throughout the cleaning project – some of the chemicals used for industrial cleaning need careful handling and use; you need to make sure that the safety of your own staff and, where external cleaning is taking place the safety of the general public, will not be compromised.
Other points that you should check are whether they will they carry out a site visit to discuss your requirements, if they provide a firm price for the contract and if they can they provide any references or accreditations.
If you have any specialist cleaning needs such as graffiti removal, high-level cleaning, warehouse cleaning, machinery degreasing or delicate stonework, you should confirm they are equipped and skilled to deal with them. Additionally, cleaning should not disrupt your daily business routine so a reputable commercial cleaning company will be happy to clean ‘out of hours’.
