Top daily cleaning lists for office reception, lobby and work space areas should include:
Additionally, here are daily tasks for the break rooms and washrooms (including kitchen break rooms):
Daily cleaning will show employees and visitors that your business is professional and welcoming
Weekly cleaning lists include deeper cleaning tasks that create a healthier work environment for employees and guests of the office.
Monthly cleaning lists are shorter than their daily and monthly counterparts because they include important but non-urgent tasks.
You need a commercial cleaner that values hard work, customer service, honesty, and integrity. These values set Kitchener Clean apart from the competition:

Our skilled Carpet Cleaning Team Members at Kitchener Clean will thoroughly clean your carpets with the latest advances in non-toxic cleaning processes. Here are the five elements of Kitchener Clean’s carpet care:
A regular cleaning schedule will also help to prevent dirt and soil build-up, which can permanently damage your carpets and lead to costly and unnecessary early replacement expenses.
Each type of hard-surface flooring requires different treatments in order to maintain its original texture and brightness. Therefore, we will custom design a non-toxic cleaning and care plan suited to your floors. Not only will your floors last longer, avoiding early replacement, but they will also become slip-resistant, which will increase safety for your employees and your customers.
Vinyl flooring is probably the most common type of hard surface flooring used in an office environment. It can come in squares, sheets, and now even in strips, similar to laminate. It can be either glued to the sub-floor, or free float. It is durable, easy to install, easy to maintain, relatively inexpensive, and comes in a multitude of colours and patterns.
Though there are many different options, what all these flooring materials have in common is the need to be protected and cleaned! Many commercial vinyl floors are not sealed and protected after being laid down; the flooring itself will wear over time, and before you notice a wearing of the actual floor, become dull.
The best way to protect your investment in any type of flooring is to provide proper preventative care (such as sealing) and to get regular cleaning.
Regular floor care keeps your office clean and saves you money in the long run
Over time, glass will become permeated with a variety of contaminants, including hard water or minerals (from sprinkler systems and building run-off), acid rain and oxidization (from windows encased in metal frames and screens), with hard water or minerals being the biggest threat to your external windows.
Because glass is still porous, airborne pollutants can become obstructed in it over time. A regularly scheduled exterior window cleaning can offset these problems.
Our Window Care Professionals will use a combination of their expertise and non-toxic, EcoLogo or Green Seal certified products to let the sunshine into your office. Your work area will be brighter and your conscience will be clear knowing that no harmful toxins were used in the process. Learn more about why you should hire a commercial window cleaner.

While cleaning for our clients, we noticed a large volume of organic waste generated in offices and discarded into the garbage. Businesses, unlike residences, don't have access to a composting program, so organic waste is put into the garbage and sent to the landfill. Kitchener Clean has developed and now proudly offers an "Office Compost Program" to businesses in the Waterloo Region.
As a member of the Office Compost Program you receive a Green Bin to collect all your organic waste and compostable materials. All the same items that you would Green Bin at home can be put in the bin in the office. This includes all food scraps, coffee grinds, tea bags, paper towels, tissues. and etc. These compostables are picked up weekly by an Office Care Technician and replaced by a fresh clean Green Bin.
Kitchener Clean can put together a personalized package of services depending on the needs of your office. You receive all your regular scheduled cleanings as well as restorative floor care, carpet cleaning, and window washing throughout the year.
No more searching for individual services and companies when you require carpet cleaning, floor refinishing or seasonal window washing. No more wasted time gathering quotes and scheduling services. No more budgeting for the big ticket items!
Kitchener Clean will make sure your office is the cleanest, healthiest space possible. We also take the time to clean under everything, not just the areas that are visible. We use only the best quality, non-toxic products available. We guarantee that we will clean your office to the same high standard that we would want our own homes cleaned.
Whether you require daily, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly or "as needed cleaning,” we can give you the best office cleaning in Waterloo.
