5 Priorities to Find the Right Janitorial Services for Your Building

5 Priorities to Find the Right Janitorial Services for Your Building

1. What are your Commercial Cleaning Needs? Identify them. 

First, make a list of what your cleaning needs are. Different Victoria commercial cleaning companies will have different specialties, so you need to be able to determine if they can meet your needs.

Do you need regular maintenance cleans, window washing, floor care, carpet cleaning, or more specialized services?

At Prioritas, we offer a variety of janitorial services including other property services like landscaping. We also do construction cleans!

Here are a few examples of the services we offer:

  • Carpet Cleaning 
  • Specialty Floor Cleaning 
  • Hard Surface Floor Care
  • Upholstery Cleaning
  • Garbage Removal
  • Post Construction Cleaning
  • Pressure Washing
  • And more...

2. Ask for Recommendations - Look for Credited Companies 

Before you choose a random cleaning company that you found online, ask some other business owners who they use for cleaning. Investigate the cleanliness of their building for yourself and ask them for their feedback about who they use.

  • Look for online reviews from former clients.
  • Ask them if they have liability insurance coverage for their company. They should provide you with proof of insurance and business licensing.
  • Are the employees contract workers or regular part-time/full-time employees?

3. Conduct Your Search

Search local commercial cleaning companies online to get an idea of the services they provide and their pricing. Compare the different companies and make a list of pros and cons to narrow down your options.

Conduct your search on sites such as Google and the Yellow Pages.

  • Read the reviews to get an idea of what their former clients have to say about the quality of their service.
  • Do they have a website or social media pages? Search for their company on sites like Facebook or LinkedIn to see what they’re sharing.
  • Do they have a blog? Find out how knowledgeable they are about their trade and what products or services they recommend by reading some of their posts.

4. Ask the Right Questions

It’s crucial that you ask the right questions before you hire a commercial cleaning company. You need to fully understand what you’re buying and set the right expectation for what you want to receive.

Here are a few questions that you should ask every company when you ask for a quote:

  • Do you have references?
  • Can you walk me through your pricing / quote? 
  • Can you meet me face to face at my commercial property?
  • Do you have insurance?
  • What kind of cleaners do you use?
  • Can you monitor their work?
Jot down the answers to their questions so you can compare the answers you got from each company you received a quote from.


6. Get Multiple Bids

Don’t dive right in with the first cleaning company that appears to check all the right boxes. Take the time to receive quotes from multiple providers.
