Deep Cleaning Your Office? Remember Your Ductwork Cleaning

When it comes to your office deep cleaning, it’s not just your ductwork cleaning that needs special attention. While regular cleaning in your office is essential, a week to week clean will normally only skim over the surface of the dust and dirt that builds up daily. This means that dirt and germs can build up in the nooks and corners - on things like computer peripherals, telephones and the like. And in an era when hot desking is the norm in many offices, germs are not restricted to any one person’s personal work space

Your Office Deep Clean - Taking Into Account More Than Your Ductwork Cleaning

As well as the desktop and equipment on and alongside it, your office deep cleaning should include fixtures and fittings, such as lighting, window furniture and your ductwork cleaning.

• Light fittings
  
  These may just need a good dusting, but where necessary, your office deep cleaners should remove, clean and remount these for you.

• Windows and frames
  
  While these may be cleaned regularly on the outside, during an office deep clean, your windows and frames should be cleaned thoroughly using professional cleaning products.

• Window fittings, such as blinds
  
  If you have blinds, it will be easy to see the dust building up on each slat.  These should be thoroughly dusted, and again, where necessary, cleaned with professional products to keep dust and grime at bay.

• Flooring
  
  Whether you have wooden flooring, carpet or tiling, your flooring should be properly cleaned using industrial equipment and professional products.

• Computers and peripherals
  
  Over time, your computer, keyboard, mouse and peripherals such as printers and scanners can become worn and stained with ink and dirt. A professional deep clean can prolong the life of your equipment, as well as keeping them free of dirt that could cause clogs.

• Telephones
  
  Due to the way that telephones are used, these need particular attention, to ensure harmful germs and bacteria are eliminated, particularly from handsets and push buttons.

• Toilets and sanitaryware
  
  Toilets and sanitaryware need special attention and more rigorous cleaning - ensuring that every element of the washroom is disinfected and odour free.

• Kitchen area
  
  If your office has a kitchen area, or even just a place where staff boil a kettle to make drinks, this too will need extra attention to ensure a safe environment for your workforce to handle their food and drink.

Within your office deep cleaning, it is important not to forget your ductwork cleaning.  An area that cannot be seen, ductwork cleaning may be easily overlooked, but as a legal requirement within a business premises, it is vitally important. As such it is also important to ensure that you choose a professional ductwork cleaning company, ensuring that you meet your obligations.

This will mean calling in two teams, and scheduling your ductwork cleaning company to work at the same time as your office deep cleaning team means that you can minimise disruption to your workforce.
