A clean space does more than just look good—it protects your reputation, improves employee health, and creates a better experience for everyone who walks through your doors. But one question we hear all the time is:
“How often should my facility be professionally cleaned?”
The truth is, there’s no one-size-fits-all answer. It depends on your type of business, how much foot traffic you get, and what kind of standards you need to maintain. In this post, we’ll break it down.
Office Buildings: Daily or Weekly
For standard office spaces, nightly or weekly janitorial service is typically enough. Think:
- Vacuuming carpets
- Emptying trash bins
- Cleaning restrooms
- Wiping down common areas and desks
If your office has clients visiting regularly, or shared spaces like a kitchen or lobby, more frequent cleaning may be necessary.
Recommended:
- Daily: Restrooms, trash, lobby
- 2–3x/week: Desks, floors, breakrooms
- Monthly: Deep cleaning, windows
Medical Facilities: Daily + Deep Cleaning
In healthcare environments, cleanliness isn’t just important—it’s mandatory.
Professional cleaning should happen daily, and deeper disinfection should be done weekly or monthly, depending on the services offered.
Recommended:
- Daily: Full surface disinfection, restrooms, exam rooms
- Weekly: Deep floor and equipment cleaning
- Monthly: Window cleaning, supply restocking audit
Schools & Daycares: Daily
Children mean germs—and lots of them. Schools and childcare centers need daily cleaning to help keep illness from spreading.
Recommended:
- Daily: Classrooms, restrooms, hallways, cafeterias
- Weekly: Floor care, dusting, touchpoint sanitizing
- Seasonal: Deep disinfection before/after breaks
Retail Stores & Showrooms: 3–5x Per Week
When customers walk in, they’re making snap judgments—often without realizing it. A spotless space increases trust and likelihood to buy.
Recommended:
- Daily: Entryways, restrooms, display surfaces
- 2–3x/week: Floors, dressing rooms, employee areas
- Monthly: Windows, deep floor cleaning
Industrial & Warehouse Spaces: Varies
These spaces are often overlooked—but cleanliness is essential for safety and compliance.
Recommended:
- Weekly: Surface cleaning, trash removal
- Monthly: Floor scrubbers, high dusting, bathroom deep cleaning
- Quarterly: Equipment area detailing, overhead cleaning
