Commercial Cleaning FAQs

  • How often should my business schedule janitorial services?

    The ideal schedule depends on your building size, employee traffic, and the type of work performed at your facility. Businesses with frequent visitors or high employee activity often benefit from more frequent cleanings, while smaller offices may only need weekly or bi-weekly service. We work with each client to create a cleaning schedule that fits their operations and budget.  

  • What types of businesses benefit from professional janitorial services?

    Many different industries can benefit from professional janitorial services, including corporate offices, medical offices, banks and financial institutions, insurance agencies, retail stores, professional offices, and other commercial facilities. Routine cleaning helps create a welcoming environment for employees, customers, and visitors while supporting day-to-day business operations.  

  • What is included in your commercial cleaning services?

    Our commercial cleaning services may include vacuuming, dusting, restroom sanitization, trash removal, floor cleaning, reception area cleaning, kitchen and breakroom cleaning, and disinfecting high-touch surfaces. We can also provide additional services such as floor stripping and polishing, ceramic tile and grout cleaning, and customized cleaning plans to meet the needs of individual businesses.  

  • Can your commercial cleaning services be customized for my facility?

    Yes. Every commercial property has different cleaning priorities, operating hours, and traffic levels. At Chick's Cleaning, we work with clients to develop customized commercial cleaning plans that address their specific needs while minimizing disruptions to normal business operations. 

  • What areas are cleaned during office cleaning visits?

    Office cleaning services typically cover common workspaces throughout your facility, including individual offices, reception areas, lobbies, hallways, breakrooms and kitchens, restrooms, conference rooms, and entryways. Cleaning tasks may include dusting, vacuuming, sanitizing surfaces, emptying trash, cleaning glass, and maintaining shared spaces.  

  • Can office cleaning be scheduled after business hours?

    Yes, we will provide after-hours cleaning services when needed. Our company understands that many businesses prefer cleaning to take place outside normal operating hours. Flexible scheduling allows cleaning services to be completed with minimal interruption to employees, customers, and daily operations.  

  • Why is medical office cleaning different from standard office cleaning?

    Medical offices require careful attention to cleanliness because patients, healthcare professionals, and visitors frequently share waiting rooms, exam rooms, and common areas. Medical office cleaning focuses on thorough sanitization of high-touch surfaces while following the cleaning procedures established by the healthcare facility.  

  • What areas of a medical office can be cleaned?

    Medical office cleaning services may include cleaning and sanitizing waiting rooms, reception areas, exam rooms, restrooms, administrative offices, hallways, breakrooms, floors, and other common areas. Cleaning plans can be customized based on the specific layout and requirements of each medical practice.  

  • Does your company use environmentally conscious cleaning products?

    Yes. At Chick's Cleaning, we emphasize environmentally conscious cleaning practices, including the use of reusable rags, neutral floor cleaners, and avoiding harsh chemicals whenever appropriate.
