At AP Janitorial, we’re often asked: “Is it really worth investing in professional cleaning services?” The answer is a resounding yes – and not just for appearances.
Clean Spaces Make Lasting Impressions on Clients
When a client or business partner walks into your office, store, or clinic, one of the first things they notice is cleanliness. Dirty entry mats, streaky windows, or overflowing trash cans can undermine even the most professional brand.
Key areas that impact first impressions include:
- Reception and entry areas
- Conference rooms and waiting areas
- Restrooms
- Hallways and break rooms
Keeping these areas spotless shows professionalism, attention to detail, and respect for your visitors.
Clean Workplaces Boost Productivity and Morale
A well-maintained, sanitized environment directly influences employee focus and satisfaction. Studies show that a clean office can:
- Reduce stress
- Increase focus and productivity
- Lower absenteeism caused by germs and allergens
Our cleaning teams help businesses across Chicago, Mount Prospect, Arlington Heights, Naperville, and surrounding suburbs create healthy, high-performing workspaces.
Cleaning vs. Disinfecting – What’s the Difference?
Many business owners confuse cleaning and disinfecting, but the distinction is crucial:
- Cleaning removes visible dirt and dust
- Disinfecting eliminates germs, bacteria, and viruses from surfaces
We recommend routine cleaning combined with scheduled or targeted disinfecting—especially in:
- Medical offices (Skokie, Glenview)
- High-traffic retail spaces (Schaumburg, Bensenville)
- Warehouses (Elk Grove Village)
Do Green Cleaning Products Really Work?
Absolutely — and they’re safer for your team and the planet. At AP Janitorial, we provide eco-friendly cleaning solutions that meet:
- LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) standards
- EPA Safer Choice certification
- Fragrance-free and allergen-reducing formulas
They’re perfect for schools, clinics, and wellness-focused businesses in communities like La Grange, Oak Brook, and Franklin Park.
How Often Should You Clean Your Business?
Cleaning frequency depends on your industry, traffic levels, and building size. General recommendations include:
- Offices: Daily trash removal, weekly deep cleaning
- Medical Facilities: Daily disinfection, weekly sterilization
- Warehouses: Weekly dusting, monthly floor scrubbing
- Retail & Service Spaces: Daily floor and glass cleaning
If you’re unsure where to start and operate in Willowbrook, Lisle, or Des Plaines, we offer free on-site cleaning assessments and recommendations.
