Difference Between Commercial Cleaning Services And Janitorial Cleaning

Commercial cleaning is a service that cleans offices, schools or other commercial buildings. It's usually done by a team of people who have been trained in how to clean properly and safely. Janitorial cleaning is done by one person or a small group of people who may or may not be trained to clean effectively. Commercial cleaning services Sudbury includes a wide range of activities that are used to maintain a clean environment, while janitorial cleaning only involves basic tasks like mopping floors, and emptying trash cans and scrubbing toilets. Following are some of the key differences:

•    Training

Commercial cleaners are trained in how to clean for health and safety reasons. This means they use safe products for customers and employees alike, and they know how to take care of different surfaces such as hardwood floors and carpeting without causing damage or leaving streaks behind. Unfortunately, janitors often just use whatever materials they have on hand, which can mean using harsh chemicals that can damage your office equipment and your carpets and floors if not used correctly.

•    Specialty

Janitorial cleaning companies offer general cleaning services, such as vacuuming carpets and mopping floors, but they don't specialize in any particular industry or building type. This means they'll clean office buildings, apartment complexes and homes equally well. Commercial cleaning companies specialize in one or two types of buildings. They know how to clean offices or retail stores because they've done it before — often hundreds or thousands of times — so they can get the job done quickly and efficiently without wasting time or supplies.

•    Equipment & Products

Commercial cleaners will often use professional equipment like vacuums and steam cleaners to get rid of germs and grime that build up in office buildings over time. Janitors also use these tools, but they may not be as thorough or efficient as commercial cleaners because they don't have as much experience working with them.

•    Guidelines

Commercial cleaners are licensed professionals who follow strict guidelines by their state's health department. They must also pass background checks and adhere to strict rules regarding personal care products and equipment use. Additionally, these companies carry insurance coverage that protects them against liability claims from clients who might be injured by an accident on their property during a visit from one of their employees. Janitorial service employees do not have these requirements because they are considered independent contractors rather than employees.

The Bottom Line

Commercial cleaning services Sudbury are flexible when scheduling appointments and can provide different levels of service depending on the needs of organizations. Even though janitorial cleaning is standard in many organizations, they often opt for commercial cleaning because of the product features and the level of services offered by commercial cleaning companies.
