OSA Janitorial Offers Tips on How to Choose Commercial Ceiling Cleaner

Brad Pierce, owner of OSA Janitorial Service in Phoenix, provides a checklist for how to choose a professional cleaning company.

Phoenix, AZ, October 01, 2014 --(PR.com)-- Are you the owner or manager of a facility that serves or prepares food? Do you own or operate a facility that that is under a continuous onslaught of airborne aerosols or smoke particles? Have you looked at your ceiling recently? Believe me, your customers have. What impressions are those ceilings making with your customers?

Suspended ceilings attract and trap smoke, odors, grease, dust and other pollutants. Not only does the ceiling look bad but they can also quickly become a sanitary problem, affecting both your staff and customers.

Dirty ceilings may lead to higher incidences of allergic reactions and illness in your employees, which can result in lower productivity and higher medical costs due to insurance premium increases.

Hiring a Professional

Make the decision to clean your ceilings before your customers complain or you are cited by the local health department. They can look new again without painting or replacement, and cleaning is much less expensive. Additionally, painting acoustic tiles destroys their fire rating.

When seeking the services of a professional ceiling cleaning company, use the following criteria to help you evaluate their capabilities:

- Proper training
Damage to your ceilings by improperly trained staff is the last thing you want to experience. Ask if all company staff members who are working on your ceilings are properly trained to use the equipment and cleaning products.
- Proper equipment and bio-degradable products
There are many cleaning products and systems on the market and each type of ceiling construction needs the proper combination. Make sure the company you hire is using products that are safe for your employees and customers as well as the integrity of your ceiling. Products used should not leave a lasting odor either.
- Experience and customer testimonials
Ask about the number of companies for which they have they performed this type of work. Obtain company references so you can talk to them about how satisfied they were with the work done.
- Length of time in business
Cleaning ceilings requires expertise and experience. Does the company have a long track record in business? You don’t want a brand new company to practice on your ceilings.
- Thorough estimate
Make sure you receive a cost estimate that includes all of the time and materials to complete your job. The estimate should also include the estimated time to perform the service so you can avoid a long disruption in business.
- Accredited with BBS
As another way to gauge the reputation of the business, make sure the company is accredited with your local Better Business Bureau and check their rating. Accredited businesses follow the BBB Code of Business Practices.

Cleaning your ceilings brightens your facilities and extends the useful life of your ceiling system all while disinfecting and deodorizing them. It is a great and economical investment you can make in your business that you, your employees and, most importantly, your customers are sure to notice.
