Typical agreed cleaning tasks
A commercial cleaning scope may include cleaning accessible floors and surfaces, shared kitchens and washrooms, agreed waste collection and replenishing client-supplied consumables. Confirm rooms, timing, frequency and the standard expected for each task.
Plan around the premises
Discuss operating hours, public access, security, alarms, restricted areas, waste procedures and site contacts. Identify sensitive equipment, floor materials and any areas that must remain untouched. Record how schedule changes and missed access are handled.
Separate specialist services
Graffiti removal, high-level glass, carpet extraction, floor restoration, pest treatment, plumbing and hazardous-material work require specific capability, assessment and written scope. Do not assume an ordinary cleaning agreement includes these tasks or their waste disposal.
Set clear service terms
Compare written task lists, price basis, products, equipment, consumables, exclusions, insurance requirements where relevant and variation process. Report damage, spills and hazards through the site's agreed contact rather than attempting work outside the plan.
