When you think of hard to reach areas in the office, your eyes immediately drift towards the ceiling. Yes, the ceiling is definitely one of the hard to reach areas in the office, but there are other places that are just as difficult when it comes to maintaining a clean and hygienic office space.
At Sloane Cleaning Services, there are a few steps we take when it comes to office cleaning, ensuring all hard to reach areas are cleaned thoroughly and effectively:
When it comes to cleaning hard to reach areas in an office environment, we always prioritise safety, both for our professional cleaners and our clients. It's not uncommon for our cleaners to use ladders and step ladders to reach these areas. Safety precautions are always observed to ensure the items being used are safe for purpose. We also use state of the art equipment and tools to reach harder to reach areas that are on the ceiling, such as extending dusters.
While you know the toilet seat and toilet bowl are easy to reach areas, have you considered where the seat attaches to the toilet bowl? Mops and hand held tools are not adequate to reach these areas. We use a scrubbing cloth, along with rubber gloves, providing a close up clean.
You're thinking that taps are so easy to clean, why are they on the hard to reach areas list? Well the truth is that while cleaning products can make their way into every gap on and around the tops, they are not effective in actually getting the dirt out. While the tap itself is very easy to clean with a cloth and disinfectant, the rim around the tap where the water comes out is where hard to reach comes in. This area of the tap is prone to lime scale that builds up when the tap is not cleaned effectively.
Professional cleaners don't only clean under the desk and visible areas of a workspace, we also pay attention to the computer keyboard. Why? Well many of us are guilty of eating at our desks, with crumbs falling everywhere, including inside our keyboards. It's important that keyboards are cleaned effectively and safety, extending their lifespan. This cleaning starts with unplugging the keyboard, and turning it upside down over the waste paper bin, tapping underneath, encouraging any crumbs, dust, and dirt to break free and end up in the bin. We then use an air canister to blow the remaining dirt out from under and beneath the keys.
Now this is probably what you were thinking of when we mentioned hard to reach areas, and yes, your ceilings and ceilings fans definitely fall into this category. We rely on extended dusters and ladders. Extending dusters make it easier for our team to reach higher areas, such as ceiling fans, removing any cobwebs, and dust. We also clean along ceiling mouldings and corners.
Window blinds are considered easy to clean. Simply give them a wipe. Slatted blind tend to be more difficult, with dust hidden on each one, especially in the corners. We use a duster that fits between the slats, effectively removing any dust and build up, including in the corners, leaving you with spotless window blinds.
