University Cleaning Services Built Around Your Entire Campus
Your university campus brings together classrooms, laboratories, offices, student halls and sports facilities. Each space used by different people at different times, creating different challenges for maintaining hygiene across your estate. Your cleaning service has to keep that environment clean and safe for students and staff, without getting in the way of teaching or events.
Every university cleaning contract we deal with begins with a detailed site survey, with cleaning frequencies decided based on how your spaces are used and the different risks we need to manage.
You’ll get a written specification and a named contact, with a supervised cleaning team taking on your day-to-day work, so your facilities managers can focus on the wider campus estate. This includes some of the more unique challenges of university cleaning, like labs and student accommodation.
Schedules Planned Around Your Term Dates, Exams and Open Days
Campuses don’t run at a steady pace all year, so it doesn’t make sense for your cleaning service to do that either. We plan regular cleaning around your academic timetable, with classrooms and lecture halls cleaned regularly and busy communal spaces visited when most students are in lectures.
Periodic deep cleaning, floor cleaning and window cleaning are targeted more during term breaks for student rooms in constant use the rest of the year.
We can adjust your cover in advance, giving you a schedule that minimises disruption and ensures a clean, tidy campus.
A Supervised Cleaning Team Sized To Each Building
We size cleaning teams based on the buildings they’ll work in, the floor area, footfall and opening hours rather than one team for your whole university. As part of this, every contract includes:
- Early morning, daytime and evening shifts matched to when spaces are in use
- On-site supervisors responsible for checking completed work and acting as your point of contact
- Daily cleans and janitorial services to deal with spills and reactive cleaning so problems don’t settle overnight
- Professional cleaners who stay on the same buildings and learn your department’s specific requirements
- Extra cleaning hours at short notice (organised through our National Operations Centre) for busy periods
- One process to request extra support and raise concerns through a named contact
Audit Reports Your Facilities Team Can Use
You can’t inspect every room yourself on a large campus, so we provide written evidence that cleaning standards are being met wherever we’re working. Our supervisors carry out regular quality audits against our agreed specification, recording areas checked in detail and flagging areas for improvement.
You’ll receive regular written reports, hand delivered to your facilities team so they can review. Where our audits find a problem, we’ll accurately record it and put a plan in place to put it right so issues are fixed quickly.
Our cleaning service is delivered under ISO 9001 quality management, with documented procedures behind each task. A clear audit trail is created for your estate management team to check if they’re asked about hygiene or cleanliness.
Labs, Washrooms & Changing Rooms Prioritised By Risk
Some areas in your university have more health risks than others. We set cleaning frequencies for each area based on usage and risk level. As standard, our cleaners will:
- Clean laboratories once they’ve been cleared by staff, following strict safety rules
- Check and clean washrooms and toilets through the day, emptying bins and restocking supplies as they go
- Clean and disinfect changing rooms and showers to stop bacteria building up
- Disinfect door handles, handrails and lift buttons more often to prevent illnesses spreading
- Keep communal kitchens and study spaces in your halls of residence clean and hygienic
