It is important that we learn lessons from the pandemic and that as a country we are better prepared for any future public health emergencies that may arise and are more resilient to more common infections like flu etc and that is why more people need to back the campaign.

The post Make Cleaning & Hygiene A National Priority appeared first on Unique Cleaning Services.

A report with these recommendations will be produced and this will then feed into the National UK COVID-19 Inquiry.

As part of the inquiry they will be looking at what and wasn’t successful and will take evidence from public health experts plus a cross section of industries and associations.

A top priority will be for cleaning operatives to be recognised for the skilled labour that they are and for the UK not to lose focus on the importance of cleaning and hygiene but to embrace it to ensure high standards and correct procedures are understood and adopted by all.

Many cleaning companies saw an increase in enquiries for their services during the height of the pandemic and although COVID is not on the news everyday anymore, it is still here and yet already the industry has reported a drop in enquiries and client’s reverting back to old ways.

Here at USS we encourage our clients to consider everything from decontamination and anti-viral fogging to deep cleaning and touchpoint sanitisation, from carpet and upholstery cleaning to window cleaning plus the general day to day cleaning tasks and offer daily, weekly, monthly and periodic services.

USS provides a range of cleaning services to the educational sector and our client’s include Kingston University and London Borough of Hackney Schools.

Steps to ensure a clean, hygienic and safe space are:-

• Sweep & Dust
• Clean
• Disinfect

Summer break is also the ideal time to focus on floorcare when rotary machines and scrubber dryers can be used without disruption, hard to reach window cleaning can be carried out and school kitchens can have a deep clean.

Due to our longstanding relationships with our educational sector clients and our excellent reputation within the sector, spaces are filling up fast but if you would like to find out more about our school cleaning services, call the office today on 02086694377.

The APPG (All Party Parliamentary Group) consists of 53 MPs from all 6 parliamentary parties plus 3 members of the House of Lords and has been set up to help ensure all MPs, ministers and government are aware of the vital work that is undertaken by the sector and that the sector is recognised for its contributions to the health and wellbeing of our country and the economy.

Targets for the industry as a whole and the APPG are:-

• Recognition
• Promotion of Real Living Wage
• Adoption / Recognition of Universal Training

“It is my pleasure to write a letter of recommendation for Paul and the team. I have used Unique Support Services for many years at the university and their attention to detail, professionalism and flexibility makes it easy for me to choose them to fulfil our cleaning needs.

I am highly satisfied with their work and have used them for window cleaning, night cleaning, the cleaning of student accommodation blocks and deep cleans etc. as and when required and often at short notice.

Paul and his team are reliable, courteous and always deliver impeccable, high standard service. I highly recommend Unique Support Services to anyone who needs the best in business.”

Chris – University Campus Services Manager

“I have used Unique Support Services for many years now at a significant number of premises ranging from Universities, Colleges, Councils, very large Retail Premises and private dwellings.

Paul Vincent, the proprietor, has consistently provided the highest quality of service on a competitive basis.

To date, Unique have always been able to devise innovative solutions to problems other contractors have shied away from.

Unique are one of the very few support service companies who actually deliver what they say they will at the price quoted.

I cannot recommend them highly enough.”

Tim – Head of Facilities Management London Borough Council

The post Tuesday Testimonials appeared first on Unique Cleaning Services.

The cleaning sector has 1.63 million workers in the UK which puts it on par with the transport sector and makes up 5% of the UK workforce and means that it is one of the top 10 largest industries in the country but this sector too has been hit hard by the pandemic with the closure of the businesses it supports.

The valuable work of cleaners needs to be recognised as a necessity rather than a luxury as cleaning and hygiene = infection control and a reputable cleaning company will practice hand hygiene, know which cleaning products to use where and when and adhere to health and safety guidelines all resulting in best practice being used.

Every facility has been infected in some shape or form and frequent cleaning has been proven to mitigate the risk of the infections spreading and further outbreaks of infections.

Regular cleaning is essential to keep infection at bay and deep cleaning offers an extra level of protection.

We all need to be proactive in our approach to cleaning regimes taking into consideration not just cleaning but sanitising and disinfecting too, for example did you know that bleach will only disinfect not clean therefore whilst it is good to use for the wiping down of door handles and light switches etc. these surfaces still need to be cleaned first.

A deep clean will also include those hard to reach and rarely seen areas that often get forgotten about.

So whilst Boris Johnson may have stated yesterday that we are over the peak of the pandemic and he will be announcing steps next week that will enable us to slowly start lifting the restrictions, regular cleaning will also be key to ensuring we do not have a second wave of infection and USS is here to help keep your facilities hygienically clean.

Free quotes available upon request and our services range from one off deep cleans to a regular timetable of cleaning, we will advise on what feel would work best for you and tailor our service to not only meet but exceed your expectations

The post Spring Cleaning Has Never Been So Serious appeared first on Unique Cleaning Services.

Did you know that USS not only holds SafeContractor Accreditation but we are also the preferred cleaning contractor of choice for a number of local authorities and public sector clients.

School holidays are a particularly busy time of year for us as this is when most schools, colleges and universities require their deep cleaning and annual window cleaning to be carried out and this year is no different, in fact this year it is even more important than ever to ensure premises are as clean and hygienic as they possibly can be.

Different from a deep clean, we can provide our clients with a full decontamination service using the following steps:-

1. Electrostatic spraying of areas using virucidal cleaning products
2. High touch-point decontamination
3. High-temperature steam-cleaning of all carpets and upholstery
4. Work certification to verify work has been completed

And it’s not just educational establishments that we clean, whatever the type of commercial property we can tailor our services for each individual client.

USS is operational 24 hours a day, 7 days a week too.

Want to find out more about our decontamination service or any other requirements you might have, call 02086694377 to enquire and request a free, no obligation quote.
