Regular Contract Cleaning
A recurring cleaning service for the way your building operates
Contract cleaning is for organisations that need a regular service rather than an isolated one-off visit. The proposed routine identifies the areas, tasks, frequencies, access arrangements and review points that apply to the site.
Whether you are starting a new service or changing contract cleaners, the first step is to understand the premises and create a scope that can be measured and reviewed.
Suitable for
- Offices with regular workspace and facility cleaning
- Shared buildings and communal areas
- Sites changing their existing cleaning contractor
- Commercial premises that need a written routine
The Written Specification
Make the scope measurable before comparing prices
A cleaning quote is difficult to assess without the specification beside it. One proposal may include washroom consumables and periodic floor work while another excludes them. A useful schedule makes those differences visible.
Rooms and cleaning zones
Tasks and visit frequency
Opening hours and access
Consumables and equipment
Periodic work and exclusions
Reporting and review route
Pricing
What moves the contract price
Floor area is only one factor. Washroom and kitchen use, task frequency, access windows, floor types, stock handling, periodic work and the level of detail in the scope all affect the time and resources required.
The proposal should state how long its price is valid, whether future reviews are scheduled and which changes would require a revised quote.
Switching Contractor
Plan notice, handover and access early
Before agreeing a start date, check the notice clause in the existing contract and list everything that needs to change hands. That can include keys, alarm details, stock locations, existing schedules, issue logs and site contacts.
TUPE and staff transfer
TUPE can apply to some outsourced service changes. Whether it applies depends on the actual arrangement and workforce. Raise the question early and take qualified legal or HR advice before making commitments.
