Commercial Cleaning Contractor Cost Control for Facilities Managers and Estate Managers Berkshire and Surrey

Cost Control For Commercial Cleaning Contracts

Selecting correct Services and Commercial Cleaning Contracts at the right time is a key role for a facilities manager. In our economic climate soliciting the correct service also requires achieving the highest quality at the lowest cost possible.

As Property, Commercial Cleaning Contracts and Service costs are consistently increasing and are often the highest cost for most businesses in Berkshire and Surrey.  A cost control system is critical to managing cost and helping business achieve sustainable growth.

The next series of posts shall discuss:

  • Budge
  • Life Cycle Costing
  • Forecasting & Action Plans
  • Expenditure Tracking
  • Capital Works

The cost control cycle

Cost control is a process made up of sequential steps. Starting with setting a budget and ending with final accounting.

Forecasting well in advance gives plenty of time to set in place cost control actions.

Cost control is more than making unilateral bottom line decisions.

Bottom line also refers to any actions that may increase/decrease net earnings or a company’s overall profit

Good cost control is about controlling the parts that make up the whole.

Budgeting Services & Commercial Cleaning Contracts Berkshire and Surrey

It all starts with budgeting which is considered by some an art in itself.

Beginning a budget may be a daunting task. It may be helpful to start with a blank sheet or white board and invest a good amount of time brainstorming as many of the property expenses. The next post will give 7 steps to organise your brainstorm and complete your budget.


DIY Oven Cleaning

This post will give you the one secret weapon to DIY oven cleaning.

We all know oven cleaning is that horrible job no one likes to do. But if you cant afford to get a professional in to clean it you may have to bite the bullet. In fact the longer you leave it the worse it gets.

We have cleaned many ovens in Bracknell, Bracknell Forest, UK and Ascot, Ascot, Windsor and Maidenhead SL5, UK over the last year.

We have experimented with many techniques and chemicals both commercial grade and standard supermarket products.

We would like to share with everyone the technique we find most powerful when it comes to oven cleaning.


But first to help you get ready you will need these items.

1 – Standard washing up liquid

2 – Plenty of of old rags or towels

3 – Something to soak your trays in i.e. gardening tray or something that will fit your trays and hold water click this link for an example of a soaking tray

4 – Metal Scourer

5 – DIY Oven cleaning Secret Weapon

Allow 3-4 hours to complete the process.


Now to get started, remove all racks and trays from oven. If you have appropriate tools to remove door and glass remove these also. Rubber door sills tend to remove fairly easily but be careful because if they snap they can be a nightmare to replace.

Place all parts in your dip tray and add washing up liquid.

Roll up one towel and place it inside the oven along the edge of the door to prevent liquid spilling out of the oven. Again add washing up liquid inside the oven.

Now add the Secret Weapon – Boiling water straight from the kettle. 

We have found that albeit simple and understated, boiling water is perfect for degreasing and the temperature  is ideal for breaking down carbon deposits.

Fill the tray with boiling water then pour boiling water inside the oven. You will need to re-fill your kettle several times but it will be worth it.

Allow 20-30 minutes to soak, then scrub with the scourer. After this dry with rags.

Tip – An old butter knife can be used to scrape the baked on carbon as it is hard enough scrape but not sharp enough to leave scratches.


Repeat the boiling water Soak, Scrub & Dry process and you are guaranteed to get your oven shining like new


 

We hope this helps but if you do not have the time to clean your own oven then why not call in the professionals;
