Proper maintenance of commercial, industrial and retail buildings is integral to providing positive first impressions to your visitors and potential clients. It’s also a critical part of providing a safe work environment for your employees and should only be entrusted to qualified professionals. From pressure washing and water proofing to preventive maintenance and disaster restoration, a full-service commercial maintenance company can help you establish a professional appearance, functional facilities, and safe environment; all while striving to accomplish the work in high traffic areas during down times, to minimize impact on operational efficiency and customer traffic.
As a facility maintenance professional, your main focus is likely on:
· The declining lifespan of the buildings and equipment that you’re responsible for.
· Preventing subsequent building and equipment failures.
· Achieving the optimal ROI for all preventive and predictive maintenance operations.
Maintaining commercial buildings is a complex task and include everything from general building maintenance to re-fresh painting and parking lot maintenance. If a fragmented approach is taken, your facility maintenance program will require multiple contracted specialists and will cost your more in the long term. By hiring a professional facility maintenance company to provide those services you can be assured of quality services that meet industry standards. You can spend more time focusing on the daily operations of your business rather than on building maintenance.
1. Hire a commercial maintenance company with a long-standing history of quality. Visit their website and make sure they have testimonials of other happy clients. If necessary ask for references. Take another step and go see with your own eyes how their work has stood the test of time.
2. Prioritize your needs and consider the extent of work to be done. Hire a maintenance company that is experienced in dealing with them.
3. Experience Speaks Volumes. Are they skilled in your field? For example, if your company is industrial, only contract a company with experience in that area to ensure proper maintenance, health-and-safety compliance, and correct disposal of project waste.
4. Are you looking for long-term or short-term contracts? Determine in advance whether you may need a long term contract for the daily upkeep of the building or a short term contract for areas that require less regular attention. You could end up prioritizing your job differently depending on you needs.
5. Ask for a proposal and discuss guarantees or warranty. Your proposal should outline the specific services you can expect, the standards that will be met, and offer you the best price for the quality job you require.
