Hold on. You’ve missed a step. What about the process of cleaning up the incredible mess that’s left behind when the construction crew clears out? Here are some of the benefit of engaging professionals to assist with construction cleanup, allowing you to get back to work sooner rather than later.
You hired your employees to complete specific tasks, and when you charge them with construction cleanup, it’s unlikely that you’re getting their best work. Not only will it take amateur cleaners more time to clean up a construction-related mess, but you’ll be taking them from their day-to-day tasks.
When your clients aren’t getting their requested work in a timely fashion, it could lead to an uncomfortable conversation at best and potentially even lost revenue. Instead, allow the professionals who can complete the work quickly and efficiently to do your post-construction cleaning.
Also, professional cleaners can actually undertake construction cleanup during the construction process; this is particularly appealing for businesses undergoing remodeling. Rather than asking employees to stop their work to make the space presentable for the duration of the project, you can hire a company to keep your building looking its best.
Construction projects are dangerous, for the workers and for the people who are trying to conduct business in the midst of the project or who want to move back in when the project’s completed. Conducting a safe construction cleanup is an important factor for anyone who hopes to avoid injuries that could lead to lawsuits or, worst case scenario, even death.
Instead of leaving the hazardous work of cleaning up after a construction project to your staff, find a professional who will get the job done properly. Better yet, partner with a commercial cleaning company that has the experience, equipment and safety record to handle all your cleaning needs – including construction cleanup. Experienced companies will have the heavy duty vacuums to collect construction dust and the right equipment to pick up large debris.
One of the most persistent issues on a construction site is the dust. If it’s not handled in the right way, it can cause respiratory problems. Another source of potential breathing issues is the stringent chemicals that are often used to clean the carpets, hardwoods, or tile flooring after the project’s complete. If left to untrained people, these solutions can do damage to the flooring as well as to the air quality of the office.
Bringing in professionals to complete your construction cleanup will not only ensure that the job is done well but also under budget. While you might think that having your staff pitch in to clean up, when you factor in the time it will take and the potential for danger, it’s actually more fiscally responsible to hire professionals who can do it quickly and thoroughly.
CSG has assisted the growing grocery store chain Wegmans keep their construction sites clean as they erect 4-5 new stores every year. Not only did we keep their stores clean during construction, but we also improved the safety of the worksite as we made sure that the stores were sparkling clean for their grand openings. Wegmans has been so delighted by our work, they’ve asked us to clean every new store that opens; for the last five years, we’ve been responsible for construction cleanup in new stores in six states.
