Summer Cleaning Strategies with PCM Building Services

As summer approaches, maintaining a clean and healthy work environment becomes even more crucial. The warmer months bring unique challenges, from increased foot traffic to seasonal allergens. At PCM Building Services, we understand the importance of keeping your commercial space immaculate and inviting. Here are some essential summer cleaning practices to ensure your workplace stays pristine all season long.

1. Enhanced Floor Care
Summer means more outdoor activities, which often leads to more dirt and debris being tracked into your building. Our enhanced floor care services are designed to keep your floors looking their best despite the increased traffic. Regular sweeping, mopping, and vacuuming are essential, but we go beyond the basics with deep cleaning and polishing. Whether you have carpet, tile, or hardwood, our team uses the latest techniques and eco-friendly products to maintain cleanliness and shine.

2. Window Cleaning
With longer days and more sunlight, clean windows can significantly improve the ambiance of your workplace. Dust, pollen, and smudges can accumulate quickly, obstructing the natural light and detracting from the overall appearance of your building. Our professional window cleaning services ensure that your windows are spotless, allowing maximum light penetration and creating a bright, welcoming environment for employees and visitors alike.

3. HVAC System Maintenance
A well-maintained HVAC system is crucial for maintaining indoor air quality and comfort during the hot summer months. Dust, pollen, and other allergens can accumulate in your HVAC system, leading to poor air quality and potential health issues for your staff. PCM Building Services offers comprehensive HVAC maintenance, including filter replacements and system cleanings, to ensure that your indoor air remains clean and fresh.

4. Restroom Sanitation
Restrooms are high-traffic areas that require extra attention, especially during the summer when higher temperatures can exacerbate odors and bacterial growth. Our restroom sanitation services include thorough cleaning and disinfecting of all surfaces, restocking of supplies, and odor control measures. We use hospital-grade disinfectants and follow stringent cleaning protocols to ensure the highest standards of hygiene.

5. Outdoor Area Maintenance
First impressions matter, and the exterior of your building is the first thing visitors see. Summer is the perfect time to spruce up outdoor areas such as entryways, walkways, and parking lots. Our team provides pressure washing, litter removal, and landscaping services to keep your outdoor spaces looking their best. A well-maintained exterior not only enhances curb appeal but also contributes to a positive image of your business.

6. Deep Cleaning and Disinfection
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, regular deep cleaning and disinfection have become more important than ever. PCM Building Services offers comprehensive deep cleaning services tailored to your specific needs. We target high-touch areas such as door handles, light switches, and communal spaces, using EPA-approved disinfectants to eliminate germs and viruses. Our goal is to create a safe and healthy environment for your employees and clients.

7. Customized Cleaning Plans
Every business is unique, and so are its cleaning needs. We offer customized cleaning plans that are tailored to fit your schedule, budget, and specific requirements. Whether you need daily, weekly, or monthly services, our team works with you to develop a plan that ensures your space remains clean and well-maintained throughout the summer.

8. Green Cleaning Solutions
At PCM Building Services, we are committed to sustainability and the health of our planet. Our green cleaning solutions use eco-friendly products that are safe for both people and the environment. These products are effective at cleaning and disinfecting while minimizing the impact on indoor air quality and reducing chemical exposure.

Finding Clorox and disinfectant products in the summer of 2020 was like finding gold. Shoppers bought out whatever products they could to protect themselves, their families, and loved ones from the rapidly spreading Coronavirus.

And while the pandemic reminded us (albeit in the most abrupt and horrendous ways possible) of the importance of cleanliness, health, and safety, the reality is that these things should always be a priority.

In particular, businesses and other entities that serve the public domain have an obligation to protect their customers, clients, partners, employees, and anyone else who physically interacts with the company. But how can businesses accomplish this in a new era where people care about their well-being like never before?

​The answer comes in the form of the pandemic’s unsung heroes: Janitorial Service Providers.

Read on for four reasons why every business should make a habit of working with janitorial service companies.

​1. Janitorial Services Reduce Business Workload

Unfortunately, most businesses struggle to maintain the standard of clean that they and their customers prefer. There’s only so many hours in the day after all, and it can be tiresome to run a business and ensure facilities are in tip-top shape. This makes hiring and coordinating with janitorial services all the more appealing!

2. Businesses Customize their Own Service Plan

Many people equate janitorial services to cleaning services. And while cleaning is a large part of what janitors do, most also offer a variety of other services such as property restoration, organizational system implementation, hauling and dumping, and others. Businesses should take all these into account when consulting with a janitorial service provider and customizing a service plan.

3. Services can be Booked on a Consistent Schedule

Cleanliness and organization can be a pain for businesses because it is not a one and done ordeal (sorry to break it you if you thought otherwise!). In fact, business cleanliness and aesthetic maintenance requires constant upkeep that many individuals cannot maintain by themselves in addition to company responsibilities.

Fortunately, janitorial service providers can address this issue if they are schoeduled to visit a business on a consistent basis. No need to worry about booking appointments or going through cumbersome scheduling processes.

​Set up a weekly, monthly, or whatever visitor frequency you want, and the requested janitorial services will be provided, all with the oh so appreciated convenience factor!

4. Janitorial Services Better the Customer Experience

This title highlights the impact of janitorial services on customers, but these services are of value to anyone involved with the business, ranging from consumers to in-house employees. All of these individuals will think favorably of a business that puts people first by ensuring their health and safety with a well-cared for facility. With the help of a janitorial service provider, businesses can show they put the needs of people first by curating an environment with human health and safety in mind.

Janitorial service providers have always performed services valuable to the quality maintenance of businesses, but it wasn’t until the Covid-19 Pandemic that we were reminded of their true necessity. By partnering with janitorial service providers, businesses can ensure they are doing everything possible to bring a sense of security and safety to people who need it now more than ever.
