Your company's office or showroom carries your company image. Whatever the public sees will reflect on their impression of your business. It does not even matter if you have the best people in your staff because if the public sees that your office or showroom is not properly cleaned and maintained, you will be judged and found wanting. The state of cleanliness of your business site will be seen as a measure of your management competence. Your janitorial service can, therefore, make or break your image and, in effect, make or break your business.

From the entrance to your office or showroom, any glass doors or windows should always be kept completely clear, sparkling and smudge-free. Doors and walls, including light switches, should be clean and stain-free, too.

The state of your carpet, for example, would be very telling. Carpets are prone to bacteria that could produce a stale odor. The same is true of rugs. Make sure that your janitorial service has professional carpet cleaning and rug cleaning expertise. They should be experts at spot removal for any stain, too. If your business site allows access to children and pets, this would be very important. Children and pets often have accidents causing various kinds of stains on rugs and carpets. Regular carpet cleaning and rug cleaning should keep them odor-free and looking pristine. Properly cleaned carpets and rugs have also been proven to look new longer, saving you from more frequent replacements.

Areas with no carpets and rugs must be kept just as clean. Whatever flooring materials are used, your janitorial service should be able to clean and maintain them so that they always look their best.

Even more important is the state of your upholstery. Remember that while your carpets and rugs stay underfoot, your upholstery comes into close contact with your customers and walk-in visitors who are prospective customers. Your janitorial service should also have excellent upholstery care skills, and this should likewise include spot removal for stains. Your company's sofas and arm chairs should remain clean, fresh and free of stains.

The rest of your office or showroom furniture, especially tables, should be regularly dusted and polished. Your customers and visitors should never have to touch any dusty surface.

Plants add an aesthetic touch to interiors and help in cleaning the air, as well. Make sure that all your plants are kept clean, too, and always looking healthy.

Also crucial to your company image is the state of your restrooms. Your janitorial service should keep your restrooms perfectly clean and disinfected. Tile grout cleaning should be done regularly. Sinks and toilet bowls should be kept spotless. There should be a regular supply of liquid soap and toilet paper.

Trash should be regularly carried out of the office or showroom. This should be done at least once a day to prevent any odors from developing and contaminating the air.

Air quality is kept fresh in an environment kept clean. This is what your customers and prospective clients breathe in the moment they enter your business domain.

Sometimes accidents happen, causing unexpected water damage. There have been cases of indoor flooding. False alarms can set off ceiling water sprinklers. Make sure that your janitorial service has the capability to respond promptly to such a situation if it happens to your company site. You cannot afford to let your customers and visitors see your business in disarray.

Your choice of janitorial service will greatly affect your company's image and your business. Make sure to make the right choice and regularly monitor the performance of the janitorial service you choose.
