The Most Commonly Overlooked Areas in School Deep Cleaning
Keeping schools clean and sanitised is essential for the health and safety of students, teachers, and staff. While regular cleaning can help prevent the spread of germs and bacteria, there are certain areas that are often overlooked and require deep cleaning by a professional cleaning service.
Here are some of the most commonly overlooked areas in school deep cleaning:
Classroom Carpets and Rugs
Carpets and rugs in classrooms can harbour dust, dirt, and allergens. This is why it is incredibly important for carpets to be vacuumed and hard floors swept and disinfected daily.
However, vacuuming alone is not enough to remove all the dirt and bacteria that accumulate in carpets and rugs. Using professional machinery can help thoroughly clean these surfaces and improve indoor air quality and prevent respiratory problems. We would recommend a full deep clean of these surfaces at least once a year by a reputable professional cleaning company.
Changing Rooms
Changing rooms are areas that are prone to bacteria and mould growth due to moisture and high humidity levels. Professional cleaning services have the equipment and experience to clean and disinfect these areas thoroughly removing limescale from sinks, taps, plugholes and showers. This removes unpleasant odours and prevents the spread of illnesses like athlete's foot and MRSA. As part of our deep clean schedule, all hard floors in changing rooms are machine scrubbed for extra vigilance and improved appearance.
Classroom Fittings
Classroom fittings and surrounding areas can harbour germs and bacteria, especially if they are not cleaned regularly. It is important to deep clean around movable furniture (on wheels) to ensure that they are free from bacteria and other harmful microorganisms. This includes the finer details such as dusting and wet wiping all skirting boards/picture frames.
Door Handles and Light Switches
Door handles and light switches are high-touch areas that can easily spread germs and bacteria. Deep cleaning of these surfaces is essential to prevent the spread of illness.
It is essential to work with a professional cleaning service such as
