Hi there – Matt here and today we’re tackling a question that’s often shrouded in mystery: How much does commercial deep cleaning cost in the UK? Let’s dive into the nitty-gritty and shed some light on this topic!
What is Commercial Deep Cleaning?
First off, let’s get on the same page. Commercial deep cleaning is a comprehensive service that goes beyond your daily cleaning routines. It targets those hard-to-reach, heavily soiled areas in commercial premises like offices, pubs, schools, restaurants and more. We’re talking about a thorough cleaning and sanitising of all areas and equipment to ensure hygiene, safety and optimal performance.
Why is Commercial Deep Cleaning Important?
We’ve covered this before, but it’s worth repeating:
- Compliance with Regulations: Staying on the right side of hygiene legislation and regulations is crucial to avoid fines, penalties and reputation damage.
- Enhanced Hygiene and Safety: A clean and sanitary environment reduces the risk of cross-contamination, food poisoning, pest infestations and fire hazards.
- Equipment Longevity: Regular deep cleaning extends the lifespan and efficiency of your equipment, saving you money in the long run.
Factors Affecting the Cost of Commercial Deep Cleaning
Now, let’s get to the heart of the matter. The cost of commercial deep cleaning can vary significantly based on several factors:
- Size and Type of Premises: Larger and more complex spaces, like restaurants or pubs, will naturally require more time and resources than smaller offices or schools.
- Flooring Type: Different flooring materials require different cleaning methods, which can impact the overall cost.
- Quality and Frequency of Regular Cleaning: The level of maintenance you perform can either reduce or increase the amount of work required for a deep clean.
- Location and Availability: Your premises’ location can affect travel time and expenses, while availability can influence scheduling flexibility.
General Price Guidelines
- Hourly Rate: Expect to pay between £15 and £40 per hour plus VAT for standard deep cleaning. For extensive jobs requiring a team, rates can range from £100 to £200 per hour plus VAT and materials.
- Office Cleaning: Prices typically start around £20 to £25 per hour, depending on the office size.
