Use this checklist as a planning tool, not a one-size-fits-all specification. The right frequency depends on site use, foot traffic, hygiene priorities, operating hours and the areas included in your contract.
Routine cleaning tasks to discuss
- Entrances and high-visibility presentation areas
- Floors in agreed traffic areas
- Bins and waste points
- Kitchens, tea points and shared staff areas
- Bathrooms and amenities
- High-touch surfaces where included in scope
- Reception, customer or member areas
Weekly or rotating detail tasks
- Edges, corners and lower-frequency floor areas
- Internal glass and partitions where agreed
- Detailed dusting of accessible surfaces
- Skirting, ledges and presentation details
- Spot checks for carpet marks or floor-care issues
- Review of consumable or cleaning-supply needs if part of the service
Periodic cleaning to plan separately
Some work is more efficient when scheduled periodically instead of bundled into every routine visit. Depending on the property, this may include carpet steam cleaning, deeper floor care, pressure washing or external garden maintenance.
Quality-control questions for your cleaning provider
- Who checks the site after the contract starts?
- How are missed tasks or changes reported?
- How often is the scope reviewed?
- Who is the day-to-day contact for the client?
- Can the program change if site use changes?
