How Frequently Should My Office Windows be Cleaned?

If you wonder how often your office windows should be cleaned, the answer is not as simple as you may expect it to be. In fact, it depends on many different factors, including the type of business you run. 

The profile of your business can influence how often your office windows get dirty, both inside and out. In addition, there are other influencers that dictate how often you need commercial window cleaning services, including:
  • Landscaping – Although an office surrounded by trees is beautiful, office windows will probably need frequent cleaning due to the birds and insects associated with trees as well as dripping sap in some cases. When your office is located near a parking lot, you may also need to perform cleaning more often because there will be a lot more debris in the air. If you have mulched areas up against the building, you will also have the same problem.
  • Weather – In rainy areas, office windows need to be cleaned more often in order to remove the mineral deposits associated with water. That is one factor that you can’t keep under control. It really depends on the weather just how often your office windows get dirty and require more frequent cleaning.
  • Office location – If you are lucky enough to have an office in a quiet suburban area, you will most likely use office window cleaning services less frequent than a company located in a busy street or close to highways.
Knowing what can affect a commercial window cleaning schedule will help you make the best decisions for cleaning your office windows. Every building’s windows need to be professionally cleaned at different intervals depending on the type of business.
Here are some simple guidelines:

  • Healthcare Facilities – Everything needs to be perfectly clean when it comes to healthcare facilities. Hospitals, clinics, private practices and so on need to present a well maintained appearance and should have their office windows cleaned on a monthly basis.
  • Office Buildings – While offices can be cleaned twice a year, office windows belonging to lobby areas need monthly cleaning since they are really important areas for a company to make a good first impression. An office building with dusty windows gives off the impression that the business is not exactly doing well. It simply does not inspire trust.
  • Restaurants – Unlike other commercial areas, restaurants need to have their windows cleaned more often – sometimes up to twice a month. It is the moisture and grease traveling around in the air that imposes the frequency of cleaning for restaurants. If you want to project an image of quality, you need appetizing windows, not just food. Fingerprinted, dirty, and grimy windows will drive your customers away.
  • Retail stores – Once a month is enough to clean office windows for retail stores and other similar business experiencing lots of foot traffic. In a highly competitive environment, the impression you make is vital to a positive image. http://www.guardian-service.com/services/window-cleaning/
