Commercial Deep Cleaning

Commercial Deep Cleaning: Full-Spectrum Hygiene for Workplaces, Warehouses, and Public-Facing Spaces

Commercial Deep Cleaning from AK Management Services is a structured, safety-led overhaul for offices, retail showrooms, warehouses, production floors, educational campuses, hospitality venues, fitness centers, and high-traffic public areas. Unlike routine housekeeping, a deep clean is an engineered project with a start and finish, a scope of work, risk controls, tools and chemistry matched to each surface, and a report you can file for audits. The objective is to remove hardened soil, compacted dust, oil film, shoe scuffs, construction residue, and bio-load on high-touch points so that the facility feels new, looks inspection-ready, and is easier to maintain day-to-day.

Where This Service Fits Best

• Corporate and IT Offices: workstations, partitions, cabins, conference rooms, phone booths, wellness rooms, and pantries.
• Retail and Showrooms: glass, mirrors, display units, trial rooms, back-of-house, loading bays, and staff facilities.
• Warehouses and Logistics Hubs: docks, racking aisles, mezzanines, admin blocks, drivers’ rest areas, and battery charging rooms.
• Education and Labs (non-GMP): classrooms, libraries, corridors, staircases, and staff rooms with careful attention to sensitive equipment.
• Hospitals and Clinics (non-theatre & front-of-house): waiting areas, OPD corridors, admin zones, and common washrooms under strict cross-contamination rules.
• Gyms and Fitness Centres: machines, mirrors, rubberised floors, locker rooms, and steam/sauna exteriors.
• Residential Society Common Areas: lobbies, lift cars, basements, clubhouses, and multipurpose halls.

Depth vs. Routine: Why Deep Cleaning Pays for Itself

Daily cleaning removes loose soil from visible surfaces. Deep cleaning resets neglected areas: duct lines and cable trays that shed dust on employees, grout that harbours smell, and adhesive residue that traps black marks. The result is better indoor air quality, a polished brand image for visitors and auditors, less slipping hazards, and longer life of flooring and furniture due to the right pads, pressures, and dilution ratios. Maintenance costs drop because a clean baseline is faster and cheaper to keep.

Pre-Project Steps

1. Survey and Scope Lock: a walkthrough to map floor types, glass, stainless, wood, laminates, stone, rubber, ESD tiles, epoxy, and vinyl. We identify risky zones (server rooms, UPS/DG areas) and lock scope with inclusions, exclusions, drawings, and sequence.
2. Risk Assessment & Method Statement: RAMS covers chemical handling, signage, lock-out tag-out where relevant, ladder use, cable management, and emergency contacts. If your facility uses PTW (permit-to-work), we comply.
3. Scheduling: night or weekend blocks to avoid disruption. We create a zone chart (A/B/C…) and commit headcount and machine time for each zone.
4. Client Prep: data policy, access cards, lift booking, water points, and storage rooms. We request moving sensitive personal items from desks into drawers for speed and safety.

Detailed Scope of Work

• High Dusting: cable trays, AC diffusers, light fixtures, beams, and signage using extendable poles and HEPA vacuums. We do not blow dust; we capture it.
• Workstation Detailing: partitions, chair backs, pedestal exteriors, monitor stands, switchboards, skirting, and under-desk cable nests. No unplugging without permission.
• Glass and Mirrors: smear-free cleaning of panels and doors using ammonia-free solutions and microfibre squeegee systems.
• Floors: machine scrub with the correct pad for vinyl, epoxy, terrazzo, or stone; edge detailing by hand; final neutral rinse. For carpet tiles: low-moisture encapsulation or hot water extraction as site-appropriate.
• Pantry and Breakout: degreasing of counters, appliance exteriors, backsplashes; sink descaling; drain deodorising; stainless steel brightening.
• Washrooms: descaling of fixtures, walls, and glass, grout scrubbing, urinal screens and floor trap sanitation, odour neutralisation, and mirror detailing.
• Back-of-House: loading docks, service corridors, janitor closets, and mechanical rooms tidied and scrubbed with caution around live panels (no water near exposed electrics).
• Staircases and Lifts: railing degrease, step nosing scrub, landing corners, lift car stainless polishing, and call-button sanitisation.

Inclusions

• All labour, standard chemicals, tools, and supervisors for the agreed scope and hours.
• Wet floor signs, barricade tapes, and PPE for our workforce.
• Checklist-based execution with zone sign-off and closing photos.
• CSR-friendly options like reduced-fragrance cleaners on request.

Exclusions (Available on Separate Quote)

• Facade/high-rise exterior glass, rope access work, scaffold erection.
• HVAC duct internal cleaning, deep grease-trap or exhaust duct degreasing.
• Hazardous waste handling, chemical spill remediation, confined-space entry.
• Structural repairs, re-grouting at scale, stone grinding beyond light honing.
• Server room interiors under hot aisle/cold aisle restrictions unless escorted and cleared.

Chemistry and Surface Care

We match chemistry to material and soil: neutral pH for daily floors, alkaline degreaser for kitchens and loading bays, controlled-acid descaler for hard water on ceramic and chrome, alcohol-based agents for high-touch sanitisation, and stainless polishes that do not leave white streaks. Dilutions are metered per label; Safety Data Sheets are part of our RAMS pack. For sensitive spaces we can run low-VOC, hypoallergenic options.

Machines and Tools

• Walk-behind scrubber-dryers with appropriate pads (red/blue for scrub, white for buff); ride-on units for large plates.
• Low-speed single discs for edges and stubborn marks, orbital machines for vinyl protection, and burnishers where a high gloss is desired.
• HEPA vacuums, gum removers, edging tools, grout brushes, telescopic poles, and microfibre systems.

Cross-Contamination Control

• Colour-coded cloths and mops: separate sets for washrooms, pantry, and office spaces.
• Dedicated tools per zone; no sharing between wet and dry areas.
• Mop heads sanitised post-shift; cloths laundered and bagged by colour.

Safety and Compliance

• Site induction and toolbox talks for the crew before every shift.
• Lock-out tag-out adherence where the client requires it; no work near live open panels.
• Signage and cord management to prevent trips; spill kits for chemical handling.
• PPE: gloves, masks, non-slip shoes; hearing protection where ride-ons operate.

Specialised Area Notes

• Server/Network Rooms: dry methods only, strict moisture control, no chemical sprays. Work under IT escort.
• Battery Charging Rooms: avoid ignition sources, non-sparking tools, and enhanced ventilation; neutral cleaners only.

• Supply and manage consumables (tissue, soaps) through a separate AMC.

Quality Control

Supervisors run ATP-style hygiene spot checks (where applicable), white-cloth tests on ledges and diffusers, slip tests after floor treatment, and visual inspections under strong, even lighting. Non-conformities are rectified immediately in the same shift. A short closure report is shared after sign-off.

Environmental and ESG Considerations

• Measured dilutions and microfibre-based systems reduce water and chemical use.
• Bulk refilling reduces plastic waste; empty containers are returned to base for disposal.
• Low-VOC options are available for sensitive occupants; fragrance use is kept minimal.

Client Responsibilities

• Ensure access, escort (if needed), and PTW where mandated.
• Inform security and engineering teams of our schedule for lift and water point use.
• Communicate desk etiquette to staff (clear surfaces on deep-clean day for best results).

FAQs

Will work interrupt operations?

We schedule night/weekend blocks and isolate zones with signage. Critical rooms are done in windows agreed with your teams. Noise from machines is kept within building norms and is short in duration.

How do you protect electronics and documents?

No spraying near electronics; we use damp-wipe methods and vacuum attachments. We request drawers to be used for personal items and paper stacks to be moved before our shift begins.

What about stubborn stains on vinyl or epoxy?

We test inconspicuous patches and select the least aggressive combination of pad, dwell time, and chemistry. Some chemical burns or deep gouges are defects in the floor itself and may need recoating, which we will flag.

Is disinfection included?

High-touch sanitisation is part of our close-out. Full-space fogging or ULV disinfection is available as an add-on based on your policy.
