Frequently Asked Questions
How often should a retail store be cleaned?
The ideal frequency depends on foot traffic, store size, and your flooring types — but most retail stores require nightly cleaning to keep floors spotless and customer-ready. Boutique locations sometimes choose 2–3x/week programs, while grocery, pharmacies, and high-traffic retail need daily sanitizing and entrance detailing. After a walkthrough, we recommend the perfect frequency based on your peak hours and customer flow.
Do you clean after hours so we don’t disrupt customers?
Yes — almost all retail cleaning is completed after close or before open. Our teams coordinate with your alarm systems, mall security access, receiving doors, and any restricted areas. We make sure your store is spotless by opening hours — minimizing disruption and maximizing presentation.
Do you handle floor scrubbing and specialty floor care?
Absolutely. Retail floors are the #1 factor customers notice, especially at entrances and high-traffic aisles. We offer machine-scrubbing, strip & wax, polish & seal, stain treatment, and seasonal floor maintenance to extend the lifespan of your flooring and maintain a professional appearance year-round.
Can you clean displays, shelving, carts, glass and checkout areas?
Yes — retail cleaning focuses heavily on touchpoints and visibility zones. We clean product displays, shelving, checkout counters, card machines, cart handles, fitting rooms, entrance glass, and vestibules. Our goal is to ensure everything the customer sees and touches feels clean and hygienic.
