How Interkleen Keeps Your Floors Clean

InterKleen Keeps Your Floors Clean

For many years, Interkleen has improved the quality of countless residential and commercial properties. Because we’ve been serving Palm Beach County since 1996, we are regarded as the most established and trusted cleaning service in the South Florida area. In fact, many local businesses depend on us to provide them with quality, professional maintenance. This is so that their property’s appearance remains appealing to both long-time and potential customers. If your floors happen to be in need of proper floor maintenance then continue reading below and see how Interkleen can benefit you and your property.

Professional Floor Cleaning

Interkleen’s professional staff possesses over a decade’s worth of experience and understands the process of floor stripping, waxing, and polishing. We’ve handled a multitude of various areas including hospitals, laboratories, schools, churches, commercial zones, and industrial areas. No other business is equal to ours and we’re confident that when you hire us, we can clean your floors better than any other cleaning service.

Our methods involve a combination of professional experience, innovative products, and advanced technology.

Floor Waxing

Regardless of the level of need or wear, Interkleen can provide you with professional floor waxing that will benefit your venue.

Our waxing services can help keep your floor looking clean, presentable, and glossy.  We maintain your workspace’s appearance by removing old layers of wax and grime that cling onto your floor. With a professional’s keen eyes and gentle touch, our staff deliberately ensures that no unwanted residues stick to your floor’s surface. This is done through a system that’s designed to protect the glossy finish of your floor.

Floor Polishing

The professional team at Interkleen understands how vital it is to perform maintenance properly in between floor stripping and waxing. Hard surface floors will quickly lose their shine and smooth grade easily without treating it the right way. Luckily, our service utilizes the use of a floor polisher, which helps to prevent your floor from being permanently damaged during stages of weekly or bi-weekly care. Our polishers are designed with high-speed burnishing settings which enhance a floor’s strength and maintains consistency as well as buffing, which helps add a beautiful level of polish and a glamourous feeling of gloss and gleam.

When you hire us, we help to preserve the beauty of your floors, ensuring they appear brand new.  We aim to improve the aesthetics of your venue/property by extending your floors’ life with protection against wear and tear, marks and scratches, and against soil penetration and abrasion.

Floor Stripping

This is the most critical part of our floor maintenance system and one that, unfortunately, most other “professional” companies perform incorrectly. The reason why most other services perform this step wrong is because they lack a well-practiced eye as well as an experienced hand. Floor stripping must be done quickly and efficiently while not taking off too many layers, cutting corners, or damaging the floors.

The process refers to the complete removal of old floor layers that have wax, dirt, and other small pieces of debris found on the surface. It’s the most time-consuming and labor-intensive job in the cleaning industry.

Our Interkleen staff isn’t just trained to perform floor stripping properly but they also have the patience that is unparalleled to other services. We believe the job should be done correctly the first time without cutting any corners. Rest assured, you can expect a perfect floor once we’re done with our maintenance routine.

How a Clean Office Can Boost Productivity

Boost Your Company’s Productivity With A Clean Office Space.

For many businesses, tasks such as bookkeeping, marketing, and customer engagement are seen as essential responsibilities that fulfill a business’s mission goal and in return help generate revenue. But an underlying factor that many business owners often overlook is workplace cleanliness. While carrying out important duties contributes to the success of a business, this is all done mostly by your employees. And having an unclean work environment can negatively impact their productivity. Workplace cleanliness actually spawns many benefits that help boost productivity such as increasing employee morale and reducing the risk of injuries. Continue reading below and see how office maintenance performed by Interkleen can help boost productivity.

Cuts Down on Sick Days

It’s no secret that an unclean atmosphere will cause illnesses. One of the biggest killers of productivity is when an employee calls out or is sent home because they contracted a sickness that has been spreading throughout the office.

Regular office cleaning helps keep bacteria at bay, allowing a cleaner atmosphere as well as cleaner surfaces for employees to work on. If kept unmaintained, bacteria can easily spread and force more and more employees to be kept away from your place of business. This, in return, will require more work for you to perform in order to ensure daily duties are carried out.

Reduce “Search” Time

The organization ensures that responsibilities are carried out smoothly with little distraction or interruption. When you lack organization, you are left to work in the rubble of a mess which can make you feel lost. On top of that, you’re wasting hours on end to perform essential, yet simple functions that could be done within a matter of minutes. The only reason why it takes you so long is that your unclean office is causing disorganization and you’re wasting time trying to find what you’re looking for.

An organized office is one where everything is placed neatly and conveniently for employees to grab within proper reach. Cleaning your office will help get it organized and in return will allow your employees to easily perform their responsibilities.

Improve Motivation

An unclean work environment tends to make employees feel ashamed about where they work. If they work in a messy setting they won’t feel inclined to help a business that cares less about cleanliness.

But when you regularly clean your business, employees will become significantly motivated to deliver their best work. They’ll feel proud to work for your business as having it regularly maintained will show to them that you, the business owner, are concerned about their setting and health

Reduces Risks of Work Injuries

An unclean work environment is sure to cause an injury amongst your employees no matter if it’s a low or high-activity place of business.

If you want to keep your employees working, without them getting injured, then reduce the chance by having your workplace frequently cleaned. For instance,  when you have your floors properly cleaned on a regular basis, slippery substances are removed which in return will reduce the risk of employees slipping and falling.

Benefits of a Church Cleaning Service

As the owner of a church, you probably don’t need to be told about how important it is to keep your facility well-maintained. Of course, that can always be a hassle and handling it yourself keeps you away from running the church properly. But if you ever find yourself in need of maintenance, don’t just settle in hiring a single custodian. It might interest you to know – much like Interkleen – cleaning services do more than just commercial and residential properties. They can also be hired to clean religious facilities and their service comes with many benefits. Continue reading below to see what they are.

Convenience

When you hire a single custodian they’re not always able to keep up with regular maintenance as much as they should or are capable of. Your establishment could be immense, which makes it near impossible for one person to be able to clean most or all of it when needed. Plus, on the chance that something happens to your custodian and they can’t make it to work, you now won’t have anyone to perform maintenance for a day or more. When you hire Interkleen for your church, you’re making a significant difference in its maintenance. Continuance maintenance will be applied to your church and work will get done on time and within schedule. Also, a cleaning service has an expansive list of employees so if one of them isn’t able to show up and clean your church they can always send another.

Cleaner Atmosphere

After you hire a cleaning service, you’ll begin to notice the overall cleaner and healthier environment that will come about. A clean atmosphere means a safe setting for parishioners to come and enjoy your establishment. No matter the size of your church, you want to make sure its interior is welcoming to guests and visitors alike. When you hire Interkleen, we can ensure that your church will have a homely essence to its setting.

Allows More Time For You to Focus on Other Tasks

After hiring our cleaning service, you’ll no longer have to burden yourself with doing maintenance. Interkleen will be there for all your cleaning needs so you can set your focus on other areas of your church. It’s guaranteed that things will run more smoothly when Interkleen is there to alleviate your maintenance load.

Creates a Good Appearance For Your Church

Finally, and most importantly, a cleaning service will maintain the appearance of your church and create a good name for it. The church’s property will look appealing not only to current parishioners but also to potential soon-to-be visitors. On top of that, you’re also increasing property value through the works of Interkleen and it will help prevent future costly repairs from taking place. This is because Interkleen’s professional expertise ensures that areas of your facility which are prone to wear and tear are properly taken care of. Your floors, for example, gets its share of near-daily traffic and Interkleen can clean it properly (polishing, waxing, and stripping) to prevent future damage to its exterior. This, in the end, will save you a lot of money.

Condominium Maintenance: What To Do When a Cleaning Service Isn’t There

No Cleaning Service? No Problem. What to do in Between Cleaning Service Visits.

As an owner of a condominium complex, you probably don’t need to be told why you need your property to be kept clean. By keeping its appearance maintained, you’re not only increasing property value but also inviting potential tenants to start renting out your rooms. A lot of hard work can go into cleaning the complex and so the best solution is to hire a professional cleaning service, such as the expert team at Interkleen of South Florida. But hiring a cleaning service itself won’t simply solve your maintenance problems. You’ll need to supply them with specifications of what work needs to be done. And those specs can change depending on what happens in between sessions of cleaning. Continue reading below to see what you can do to further improve maintenance while Interkleen isn’t there.

Preventative Maintenance

To avoid expensive repairs, make sure to perform regular preventative maintenance and inspect every part of your property when possible. If an immediate cleaning is needed while Interkleen isn’t there, attempt to tidy up any mess as much as is needed and contact us right away.

On another note, by performing inspections during preventative maintenance, you’ll be able to recognize any failures in your building’s functions and can avoid fines due to violations of state and local codes.

Carpeting

What probably receives the most wear-and-tear of your building is the carpeting. It receives a daily pampering of dirt and other bacteria since it’s always in contact with residents and other patron’s shoes. Look over your carpets often and see how dirty they get. Interkleen can be there when you need them but by knowing how frequently your carpeting should get cleaned, you can schedule us for regular visits if you need it.

Pest Control

Whenever you have shelter, it can also serve as a shelter for unwelcome guests. During inspections, look to see where potential pests can reside. If severe, you’ll obviously need the service of an exterminator. But once cleared, make sure to point out to Interkleen staff specific spots where pest problems have occurred. We’ll ensure that it receives proper cleaning and further prevent it from being a haven for insects and other critters.

Emergency Preparedness

It’s something you’ll never hope to deal with. But unfortunately, it can happen. An emergency will take place on your property and you’ll have to be prepared to take care of it. If a sudden mess that poses as a threat occurs, you’ll want to contact our team to help you. But if after business hours disallows us from coming immediately, be ready to clean the mess up if possible and necessary.

Need Your Condominium Property Cleaned? Hire Interkleen Today

Of course, make the appropriate adjustments necessary to your cleaning service’s visits every time you do preventative maintenance. If you want a professional service who will adjust to your needs, then look no further than to Interkleen. We’re recognized as one of the top cleaning companies to exist in the South Florida area.

MISTAKES BUSINESSES MAKE WHEN HIRING A COMMERCIAL CLEANING COMPANY – PART 2

Some Common Mistakes Businesses Make When Hiring a Commercial Cleaning Service. PT2

In our last blog post, we spoke about what mistakes to avoid when hiring a commercial cleaning company. Choosing the right company in regard to their cost and experience were just a few things that were mentioned. In this blog, we’ll discuss further aspects of a cleaning company that you should ignore. Namely, the cleaning company’s specialization and their surety bonding.

Ignoring The Cleaning Company’s Specialization

Most cleaning services have a specialty in one area for a single niche but may not have one in another area. Many cleaning companies could specialize in cleaning for hotels and other similar resorts but may lack experience in restaurant cleaning, as an example. If you are working for or are the head of an office suite, make sure that the cleaning company you are hiring specializes in office cleaning. You wouldn’t want a cleaning service that ignores a certain area. If your business encompasses more than one area, make sure you hire a cleaning service that’s versatile. InterKleen has experience across a wide spectrum of specializations that we offer.

Hiring a Cleaning Service That Doesn’t Have Surety Bonding

There are minor and major inconveniences in this area of the process of hiring a cleaning company. In order to protect the property of your business, it’s imperative that you hire a service that carries a surety bonding. Even if the cleaning crew may not touch any of your items, it’s best to be protected. Also, notify them of certain products that cannot be used in the office. You or a member of your staff might be allergic to a product that the cleaning service uses during their work. Or the product could also potentially damage your equipment.
