Frequently asked questions
Looking for general information about our Commercial Cleaning services? SCS Group is here to help.
What is the difference between commercial and domestic cleaning?
Commercial cleaning involves services tailored for businesses and large-scale facilities, focusing on maintaining cleanliness in offices, retail spaces, and industrial environments. It often requires specialised equipment and techniques to handle high-traffic areas and specific industry standards. In contrast, domestic cleaning is designed for residential properties, addressing everyday household cleaning tasks such as dusting, vacuuming, and sanitising personal living spaces. The primary difference lies in the scale, scope, and specific requirements of the cleaning tasks.
What does commercial cleaning cover?
Commercial cleaning typically covers a wide range of services designed to maintain cleanliness and hygiene in business environments. This includes general office cleaning, carpet and floor care, window cleaning, restroom sanitation, and waste removal. Specialised services such as deep cleaning, upholstery cleaning, and disinfection may also be included, depending on the needs of the business. By ensuring a clean and healthy workspace, commercial cleaning services help improve employee productivity and create a positive impression for clients and visitors.
What is the difference between cleaning and commercial cleaning?
Cleaning generally refers to the routine tasks of tidying up and maintaining cleanliness in a home or small office, such as dusting, vacuuming, and mopping. Commercial cleaning, on the other hand, involves more specialised services tailored for larger spaces like offices, retail stores, and industrial sites, often requiring advanced equipment and techniques to handle high-traffic areas and specific industry standards.
How much does commercial cleaning cost?
The cost of commercial cleaning in Australia varies depending on factors such as the size of the premises, the type of cleaning required, and the frequency of service. For a more accurate quote, it’s best to contact SCS Group for a customised estimate.
Are commercial cleaning companies certified for their services?
Yes, commercial cleaning companies often hold quality certifications. SCS Group, for example, is triple ISO certified, demonstrating their commitment to high standards in quality management (ISO 9001), environmental responsibility (ISO 14001), and occupational health and safety (ISO 45001). This ensures clients receive reliable, environmentally conscious, and safe cleaning services.
Do commercial cleaning companies typically use their own in-house cleaning staff or hire external contractors?
There are generally three main ways commercial cleaning companies organise their cleaning staff: direct employment, a combination of employed and contracted staff, and fully contracted teams. The choice between these often comes down to factors such as the complexity of the cleaning tasks, the required level of security, and the scheduling needs of the client. SCS Group offers a comprehensive approach, utilising directly employed, hybrid, and contracted teams. This flexibility enables us to align our staffing strategy with each client’s specific needs, ensuring optimal coverage for their required shift times and service durations.
What is a periodical chart in commercial cleaning?
Effective cleaning planning involves schedules outlining task timing and quality checks, developed with the client. SCS Group uses a chart created with your team that shows when tasks are executed, checked, and completed.
How do commercial cleaning companies ensure effective communication regarding scheduling, service updates, and addressing client concerns?
Effective communication is key for cleaning companies, often involving regular updates and clear task assignments. SCS Group prioritizes communication via quarterly business briefings, weekly toolbox talks, site training, safety alerts, and duty schedules.
What periodical services do commercial cleaners usually offer besides regular cleaning?
Clients often bundle services with commercial cleaning for efficiency and one contact. Common add-ons are waste, grounds, pests, hygiene, and maintenance. SCS Group in Australia offers this, with many clients combining our cleaning with waste management, gardening, pest control and general maintenance.
Do commercial cleaning companies typically audit their cleaning services?
Quality checks are common in commercial cleaning. SCS Group in Australia audits all sites and invites your representative to join for a transparent process.
How do commercial cleaning companies verify who is cleaning a client's premises?
Ensuring the security of client premises is a top priority for commercial cleaning companies. Measures such as staff induction, background checks, and controlled site access are often implemented. SCS Group has robust security protocols. Every member of our team is inducted, police checked, and their identity is verified. Furthermore, our site access system only allows approved workers to scan in, providing a secure environment for our clients.
Is environmental compliance a requirement for commercial cleaning companies?
Commercial cleaning services are expected to use equipment and chemicals that adhere to environmental regulations. SCS Group ensures full compliance with all necessary standards for our equipment and chemicals. Furthermore, our ISO 14001 certification demonstrates our commitment to a comprehensive environmental management system and our ongoing efforts to minimise our environmental impact.
How do commercial cleaning companies approach operational planning, including aspects like scheduling, task allocation, and resource management?
Commercial cleaning plans typically detail cleaning frequency (daily, weekly, monthly). SCS Group includes a site-specific scope of service with daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly tasks in our service agreement.
