6 Essential School Cleaning Services
Everyone who works in or attends a school knows that, on occasion, they can be messy, unhygienic and easily vandalised by their inhabitants, by accident or otherwise. There are a huge range of jobs that go toward keeping an educational establishment safe for everyone inside, but we’ve boiled it down to 6 essential school cleaning services that expert cleaning companies such as Rainbow International can provide.
1. Biohazard Cleaning
In a school, it’s unavoidable to have the occasional accident involving bodily fluid, whether it’s blood or otherwise. Taking care of hazardous spills is essential and needs to be handled with care, knowledge and, at times, discretion.
Biohazards can also be caused by the spilling of hazardous chemicals in science labs or workshops, these types of spills especially require expert attention as soon as possible for the safety of students and teachers as well as to prevent damage to school property.
2. Bacterial and Viral Control
At all times throughout the academic year, it’s vital that schools remain hygienic and that any spread of illness is kept to a minimum. This is even more vital following times of pandemic such as COVID-19, as well as going forward.
The only way to keep on top of bacterial and viral infection is to maintain high standards of cleanliness and hygiene, frequently cleaning and disinfecting surfaces. This can be done on a schedule, with cleaning teams of all sizes to suit your requirements.
3. Hard Floor Restoration
Whether through an accident, fire & flood, or just general wear, it’s important that any damage to hard flooring is restored. Damage to flooring can easily cause injury if left untreated as well as becoming an eye sore and developing into a serious structural issue.
If you’re unsure on how to go about treating or restoring issues with your hard floor, get in touch with us for advice.
4. Ventilation Duct Cleaning
In large buildings such as schools, ventilation ducts play a huge part in the health and safety of everyone using the building. If these ducts get blocked or damaged, it can cause serious problems, and even a build up of dust or debris can cause issues with the quality of the air throughout the school.
Despite not being a visible or perceivably prominent issue, air duct cleaning is vital to the health and safety of your staff and students.
5. Blast Cleaning & Graffiti Removal
A certain level of graffiti is, unfortunately, expected in most schools around the country, however if it’s taken further than the typical desk carvings, you may need a specialist’s help to remove the eye sore.
We provide blast cleaning and a range of other graffiti removal services for schools and other educational facilities. Blast cleaning is also useful for cleaning patios and other large flat spaces quickly and efficiently, perfect for other areas of school such as playgrounds and carparks.
6. Commercial Kitchen Clean
The kitchen, in any building, is arguably the most important room to keep clean and hygienic, in order to stop the spread of bacteria and viruses as well as for general cleanliness.
There may be multiple kitchens in a large school, including the canteen where students’ food is prepared and served, as well as staff rooms and classroom kitchens used to teach catering or home economics classes. All of these kitchens need to be kept clean and hygienic with the help of reliable commercial kitchen cleaning specialists like us.
These are the 6 most necessary steps to ensuring that your school is safe and clean for students and all staff, but this is by no means an exhaustive list. Get in touch with us to hear more about the school cleaning services we offer and how our teams can help fill your specific requirements.
