When it comes to first impressions, restrooms have a greater impact than nearly any other space in your entire facility. No matter what industry you are in, the condition of your restrooms can make or break the experience a customer has. Clean restrooms foster more positive feelings about your business, and visitors equate restroom cleanliness with professionalism and organization. Keeping the area clean creates a powerful impression that can lead to repeat business and increased sales.
Restrooms should be cleaned at least once daily with the right janitorial supplies in Danville, and the process involves many different steps. To keep your janitorial staff on task and to prevent mistakes that could cost you business, consider creating a checklist that the staff can use as a guide throughout the process. This ensures that no dispenser is left unfilled or fixture left dirty, and you will never have to wonder what kind of impression clients are getting from your restroom.
You can use this checklist as a basic guide, and after adding your own specific tasks, print it out and laminate it. Your janitorial staff can mark it off with a dry erase marker each day to make sure all tasks are completed and your restroom is always shining.
