Frequently asked questions
How do commercial cleaning contracts handle keys and alarms?
Reputable companies run signed key registers, alarm-code logs, and vetted staff lists. Ask how keys are stored, who can access your site, and whether staff are background-checked before handing over out-of-hours access.
What insurance should a commercial cleaning company carry?
At minimum public liability insurance and employer's/workers' compensation coverage for their staff. Ask for certificates — if an uninsured cleaner is injured on your premises, the liability can land on you.
Should I hire a cleaning company or an in-house cleaner?
Under roughly 10-15 hours of cleaning per week, a contracted company is usually cheaper once you count payroll, insurance, cover for absences, and equipment. In-house starts to win for large single sites with full-time cleaning need.
How often should an office be cleaned?
A typical small office books 2-5 visits per week; high-traffic spaces with shared kitchens and customer areas usually need daily service. Bathrooms and touchpoints drive frequency more than floor area does.
What does a standard office cleaning visit include?
Emptying bins, vacuuming and mopping floors, wiping desks and touchpoints, cleaning kitchens and bathrooms, and restocking consumables. Window cleaning, carpet extraction, and floor stripping/polishing are usually scheduled extras.
How is commercial cleaning priced?
Three common models: per hour per cleaner (small offices), per square metre/foot per visit (larger spaces), or a fixed monthly contract based on visit frequency. Most quotes are set after a walkthrough that counts desks, bathrooms, kitchens and floor types.
Can cleaning happen outside business hours?
Yes — evening and early-morning service is standard for offices so cleaning doesn't disrupt staff. Out-of-hours access requires a key/alarm protocol; some companies charge a small premium for late-night or weekend slots.
How do I check a Singapore cleaning company is licensed?
Search the NEA's public register of licensed cleaning businesses. The licence is mandatory and ties the company to Progressive Wage Model pay obligations — an unlicensed operator is both illegal and usually underpaying staff.
