 In public spaces, a nice ladies’ room is always a pleasant surprise. Let's be honest, we've all been in some restrooms that made us think twice about how bad we really need to go. Then there's the restroom that you're just thankful it's clean. It's not necessarily pretty or comfortable. But all the plumbing works, there's toilet paper and you're not overly grossed out by the types of germs you're visualizing on everything. It's a clean restroom. It's appreciated and it's the best most people ask for when using a public facility. Of course, a clean, functional restroom is a great start. But what if your office needs or just wants to offer more than a functional ladies room? Perhaps your business or office:
There are many simple ways that can take your restrooms from just clean to "WOW", quickly while improving the experience users have in the ladies' room. In the course of managing a commercial cleaning service for over 20 years, we’ve seen a lot of ladies' rooms. We’ve noticed that there are some features that absolutely delight users. Delighted users tend to complain less and play their part in keeping the restroom use clean for others throughout the day.
We’ve complied six ways that you can improve the ladies’ rooms in your office. Whether you have single or multi-stall restrooms, these ideas will work for you. Plus, they are so easy and inexpensive you could implement them all this week.

 One of the main reasons we hear from office managers of why they don’t have a tile maintenance program is that it costs too much. We can agree that tile maintenance costs can add up but by neglecting tile maintenance all together, the bill is just adding up for the future. And not to mention our floors look dirty and dull, which isn’t the best reflection on any business.
But if you haven’t planned properly for the expense of tile maintenance how do you even get started without overwhelming your budget? We have helped many businesses get started with tile maintenance programs even if they had not previously had money set aside in their business budget for this needed expense. So today, we’ll dive into how to make starting a tile maintenance program affordable with some practical tips and suggestions. We’ll consider a few approaches that can decrease the sense of overwhelm with adding this new expense to your financial budget. It will also help you make the most of the money that you can spend now while increasing your maintenance budget for the future.  The week between Christmas and New Year’s is well, kind of weird. The anticipation of Christmas is over but it’s still not back to business as normal as we approach New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. Many people are still on holiday vacation until after the first of the year, so our offices are lightly staffed and in general this is just a very slow week. It’s no wonder it’s so easy to lose track of time during this week.
If you are not among the people who are on vacation this week, it could be really, hard to make this a productive week. Well thankfully there is always something that can done when managing a facility. We’ve pulled together a list of things that won’t require too much exertion, (we are just coming off the Christmas holiday and all) but also aren’t just busy work. These tasks are a perfect mix of things that actually need to be done and not wanting to take on something too major. You’ll also have the extra benefit of that great feeling of accomplishment of being able to cross a completed project off your list and being set up for a productive new year. Pick one, two or all the tasks and have a great lull week between holidays.  Understanding any type of contract is important. It's no different for the janitorial services contract that you sign on behalf of your company. It is critically important to you not only understand but agree to all the terms and conditions outlined in the janitorial service contract.
It can be easy to think it's just cleaning, but the details in the janitorial service contract will govern what could be a long relationship with you and the commercial cleaning company. Also, your company will still be bound by this contract even if you move on from the business, so it is critically important that you and all decision makers are on board with the terms and service. While the entire janitorial service contract is important, there are a few that typically cause huge problems in the future when they are not clearly understood at the beginning of the relationship with a janitorial service. This article will arm you with the information you need to thoroughly review these areas and make sure that the terms are agreeable to your company for the long run.
