ECJ EUROPEAN Cleaning Journal

Commercial cleaning company Cleanology in the UK haslaunched a one-stop-shop property maintenance service to help building managers deal with emergencies and keep properties in top condition.

The new service offers 24-hour call out for a range of problems including plumbing, drainage, air conditioning, building works and electrical issues. Cleanology can also provide locksmiths and make buildings safe in the event of broken glass.

According to ceo Dominic Ponniah, the move was an obvious next step for the company. "Cleaning operatives know buildings better than the people who work in them. We are familiar with all the issues that premises may encounter and are often the first to spot a problem.

"For a facilities manager or building supervisor, finding a speedy solution to a one-off problem such as a blocked drain, or trawling the internet in search of a company that can install air conditioning is a real headache. It makes more sense to call on a trusted partner's expertise, and get the job done quickly, knowing it will be executed to a recognised standard."
