If watching the Olympics teaches us anything, it’s that working hard and putting the correct techniques into action delivers results that you can be proud of. Believe it or not, that’s how we feel about our restroom cleaning service! At the end of the day we want to feel good about our work, that’s why we know that when it comes to proper restroom hygiene it isn’t so much about cleaning as it is about disinfecting. 

When confronted with a dirty restroom, simply polishing up the mess won’t do the trick. Surface cleaning is important, of course, but in order to create a truly uncontaminated space a restroom sanitation service should go over clean surfaces with disinfectants. Furthermore, the restroom cleaning team that understands the dwell time and power of the various cleaning agents involved would be sure to win the all around gold medal if restroom hygiene was an Olympic event!

How can you be sure you’re getting the best restroom hygiene?

Knowing that you’re receiving terrific service from your restroom cleaners can sometimes be hard to spot, because even seemingly clean restrooms can harbor deadly bacteria. When you outsource to a commercial cleaning service you should look for these elements to make sure they’re maintaining proper restroom cleanliness and a hygienic space:
  • Fresh scent
  • Clean floors and surfaces
  • Well-stocked supplies
  • Absence of odors
  • Disease Free
  • An attention to detail that focuses on “touch points
  • Spotless toilets and urinals
Furthermore, outsourcing to a commercial restroom cleaning service that has a time tested and positive reputationwithin your community, well trained employees, and a responsible system in place is a sure sign that you’re getting the service you’re paying for.

What are the benefits of Restroom Hygiene?

The results of good restroom hygiene are only positive and completely worth the time it takes to properly keep up restroom cleanliness. Some of the key benefits include:
  • Reduced employee sick days.
  • Improved employee moral.
  • Happy customers and guests.
  • Positive impressions of your facility.
  • Increased employee output.
  • Overall, an increase in your company’s bottom line.
If you’ve ever used a dirty restroom then you can understand how much people appreciate immaculate restroom cleanliness, especially in public settings. The benefits of restroom hygiene are obvious and not something to be taken for granted.

If restroom cleaning is not done well and not taken seriously, people will become ill--sometimes even coming down with serious diseases. Even the fittest Olympic athletes can’t stand up to the potential diseases that lurk in the restroom of a facility that puts proper restroom hygiene on the sidelines.
