Cleaning for offices and business centres

How cleaning works in an office and a business centre

The main cycle at night, an attendant on the common areas by day and a clear routine for every area — built around how an office in Dubai actually works: a stream of visitors, meeting rooms with no free slot, and security on the door.

Who we are and why an office is its own job

Cleaning built around
the working day

We look after company offices, business-centre towers, co-working spaces and representative offices: from a single floor to a whole building with its common areas and car park.

A generalist cleaning contractor turns up with a domestic routine — and the cleaning starts while a meeting is running, and by lunchtime the washrooms look as though nobody has been near them today.

Why an office can’t run on
domestic cleaning

Four reasons. Pick one and see what it means for the contractor.

Working around people

The bulk of the work happens after 19:00, but the office is alive all day. A day attendant keeps the lobby, kitchen and washrooms in order between cleans — quietly, with no smell and no blocked walkways.

What follows from this

The bulk of the work happens after staff leave, while a day attendant covers the peak areas as the office runs.

The load isn’t spread evenly

Washrooms, the kitchen and meeting rooms take all the traffic, while the document archive goes untouched for weeks. One rate per square metre means dirt where it’s busy and wasted hours where it’s empty.

What follows from this

Frequencies are worked out by area and traffic, not by one rate per square metre across the whole floor.

Access and confidentiality

Passes cleared with security, restricted areas, work in executive offices only with a staff member present. Cleaners sign an NDA and the shift roster is agreed in advance.

What follows from this

The shift roster is agreed with your security team, cleaners sign an NDA, and restricted areas are entered only with your staff member.

The office is the company’s shop window

A visitor sees the lobby, the glass and the meeting room before they see anyone from the team. Streaks on glass and marks on the carpet read as how the company treats its work.

What follows from this

The lobby, the glass and the meeting rooms stay in a state where the site can be shown without warning.

Scope of work

What we do in an office

01 Lobby and reception Entrance, glass, the desk, the floor and the bins — before staff arrive and again during the day.
02 Workstations Desks, equipment exteriors, bins, dust up to two metres. Personal belongings are left alone.
03 Meeting rooms After meetings: tables, chairs, glass, equipment, water and consumables.
04 Kitchen and coffee point Worktops, sink, appliance exteriors, waste, consumables restocked twice a day.
05 Washrooms Three or four rounds: cleaned with disinfectant, mirrors and chrome, consumables, odour control.
06 Floors by covering type Carpet vacuumed, hard floors damp cleaned, stains removed locally.
07 Glass and partitions Internal glazing, doors and hand marks at contact height.
08 Lift halls and corridors The floor’s common areas, call buttons, mirrors and the floor inside the cars.
09 Touchpoints Handles, switches, rails, buttons, handrails — on every round.
10 Waste and consumables Taken out along the route, liners replaced, paper, soap and sanitiser restocked.
01 Deep cleaning Once a quarter: tops of cabinets, light fittings, radiators, skirting, furniture from both sides and underneath.
02 Upholstery and carpet cleaning Chairs, lobby sofas, fabric partitions and carpet. Night shift, with drying time so it’s ready by morning.
03 Glazing Curtain walling and the facade inside and out, including high-access work under permit.
04 Coated floors Rotary stripping of hard floors, the old protective layer removed and a new one laid.
Key risk areas

The areas we
answer for

Tap an area on the plan to see where the risk sits and what we do about it.

1

Lobby and reception

Why the risk is here

The first thing a visitor sees, and the one area where every mark shows.

What we do

Twice a day: glass with no streaks, floor, desk, bins, checked through the day.

2×/day frequency glass and floor what we work with
2

Open-plan floor

Why the risk is here

The largest area, and the most visible dust on equipment and window sills.

What we do

Daily after staff leave: surfaces, bins, floors by covering type.

daily frequency vacuum and surfaces what we work with
3

Meeting rooms

Why the risk is here

In use all day with no free slot — the room has to be clean for the next booking.

What we do

A quick pass after meetings: table, chairs, glass, equipment, water and consumables.

after meetings frequency quick pass what we work with
4

Kitchen and coffee point

Why the risk is here

Peak load at lunchtime; smell and marks appear within the hour.

What we do

Twice a day: worktops, sink, appliance exteriors, waste, consumables restocked.

2×/day frequency degreasing what we work with
5

Washrooms

Why the risk is here

The main source of staff complaints and the first thing a landlord checks.

What we do

Three or four rounds: cleaned with disinfectant, consumables, odour control, signed off on the checklist.

3–4×/day frequency cleaned with disinfectant what we work with
6

Lift halls and corridors

Why the risk is here

A floor’s common areas belong to everyone and therefore usually to nobody.

What we do

Daily: floor, mirrors, call buttons, glass, bins by the lifts.

Quality, KPIs and how we work

Measured on site,
reported to you

The KPI and SLA framework is set for your site at launch, so quality can be checked rather than taken on trust.

What we measure
Checklist completion per shift
Response time to an urgent request during working hours
Number of issues found at supervisor inspection
Consumables present in the washrooms on a spot check
Shift staffed as planned and cover provided on time
Share of meeting rooms accepted with no issues after meetings
How the work runs on site
1 A dedicated crew and a supervisor who signs each shift off on site.
2 A checklist by area for your office — not a template, but written at the survey.
3 A photo report within 60 minutes of the shift ending.
4 Scheduled and unannounced quality inspections twice a month.
5 A monthly SLA report with every issue reviewed and a plan for the next period.

What the client
facilities teams

Four things facilities teams answer for in front of their own management — and that we take on.

One person accountable

A site manager and a supervisor by name and direct number, not a general office line.

An office that stays presentable all day

A day attendant keeps the lobby, kitchen and washrooms in order between the main cleans.

A predictable budget

A fixed price under the contract; special works are agreed in advance.

Our own equipment and chemicals

Machinery, consumables and chemical safety data sheets sit with the contractor — the office spends neither space nor budget on them.

Who we’ve worked with

You don’t notice the right contractor while things go well — and they prove their worth the moment something goes wrong.

Operating pattern

An attendant is a cleaner who stays on site during working hours: they hold the lobby, kitchen and washrooms between the main cleans and deal with urgent requests.
