Cleaning Contract Review Time?

Monday, February 1st, 2010

Are you looking at your contracts right now?

Does your cleaning contract need reviewing soon? 

Are you fed up with the lack of service, cleaning standards or management of your cleaning contract?

Would you like the cleaning contract to practically manage itself?

Shipshape Cleaning can offer a two-fold approach to helping you to review your cleaning contract.

1. You can download our FREE Cleaning Audit Form from our website homepage and go round your site and assess all the areas of the contract yourself, alternatively;

2. We are able to offer a full review of your cleaning services.  We will go through the whole building looking at the areas that are regularly cleaned including washrooms, kitchens, meeting & conference rooms.  We would then put a unique service schedule together covering all areas.  We can accurately gage how many cleaners are needed to provide the best service for your site and provide you with a quotation to provide a good service for a fair price.

We will also give you quotations for additional services if you are reviewing other services such as:

  • Washroom Rentals
  • Carpet Cleaning ad-hoc or on a regular schedule
  • Window Cleaning on a regular schedule
  • Mat Rental
  • PAT & Electrical testing

We commit to regular visits to your cleaning team in the evenings and we have quarterly reviews with you the client to ensure you are getting the service you expect and any special requests or issues are acted upon.

We cover all areas of Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire and some areas on the outskirts of London.

Call or email us today if you feel we can be of assistance.

Full Client Facilities Management

Monday, October 12th, 2009

At Shipshape we can cater for all your cleaning needs, helping to improve your working environment.  As well as office cleaning, we can arrange cleaning in other areas, our range of services include:

Deep Cleans to areas that have heavy use or get dirty, including factory areas, mess rooms, warehouses, showers, washrooms etc.

Jet Washing external features such as bridges, walkways, patio areas and decking.  These areas can also become slippery this time of year, check out the anti-slip section of our website:

Window, Fascia & Sofits and Gutter Cleaning is a service that we can offer either as a one-off blitz clean of these areas or windows can be scheduled in on a regular basis, with the Fascias, Soffits and Guttering less often.

Floor Sealing improves the longevity of a hard floor surface and makes it easier to clean and the cleaning is more effective.  We can provide this service to new or old floors.  Where slip issues occur on a hard floor, we can seal with specialist ant-slip floor treatments which comply with HSE guidelines.  See link above.

PC Cleaning is a service we can provide to ensure keyboards and PC’s are cleaned and germ free.  It is good practice to have equipment regularly cleaned to prolong the life of it and for hygiene reasons.  This service can be carried out after hours for minimal disruption to the business. 

Carpet Cleaning can be done out of hours or at weekends, this can range from a full clean of carpets throughout the building or just particular carpets in high traffic areas. 

Blind Cleaning can make a huge difference to the ‘look’ of windows, especially this time of year when dust has built up on them over the summer with windows being open and now this time of year with spiderwebs.

It is a good idea to incorporate these services into the overall cleaning schedule so regular visits will keep all areas, not just the cleaners areas, in top condition.

At Shipshape, clients can have our cleaning services and can pick from the above ad-hoc or regular specialist cleaning services as and when they are needed. This is conveniently managed by us all under one roof, with one invoice going out to the client.

If that appeals to your business, contact us for a site review.

The C word is for Cleaning - not Cuts!

Monday, October 5th, 2009

Cuts is a bit of a buzz word these days in the press with the labour government making cuts, cuts, cuts….

Cleaning is obviously an essential part of the facilities management in a building and when managed properly provides an essential service in the workplace.  Cleaning is essential to:

- Keep the building in tip top condition

- To provide a clean environment for employees to work in

- To give a good impression to visitors to the office

- To eliminate some H&S issues in the workplace

Cleaning services are very often scrutinized as part of the financial budget process and there is always a need to justify your cleaning expenditure.

At Shipshape we look at ensuring that throughout the contract you get an efficient service that is well managed and adds value to your business.

From initial contact, to the review of existing arrangements and tender, throught to the set up of the new site we aim to provide the best service for your budget.

We use an automated timecard system for all our cleaners to ensure that we are delivering the cleaning service you are paying for.

Our Area Manager reviews our sites regularly to deal with stock, training, inductions and working methods.

We employ experienced cleaners with a good working history and references to work in our teams.  We also value our staff and pay above the minimum wage and have incentive schemes in place to reward the hard work of our staff.

We use a variety of products to do the job, using the Microfibre cloth system, environmentally friendly cleaning products where possible and we always ensure that our teams have the products to clean a site and keep it clean and presentable.
