Daily vs. periodic cleaning \u2013 how they work together<\/h2>\n\n

Good cleaning is about more than just daily routines. Although daily cleaning keeps the premises clean from day to day, you also need periodic cleaning<\/strong> to take on tasks that do not require such frequent follow-up.<\/p>\n\n

    How to fix it:<\/h3>\n\n

    Daily cleaning<\/strong> removes dust, dirt and stains that occur every day \u2013 and ensures that the premises always appear clean and inviting. Periodic cleaning<\/strong> is more thorough cleaning that is done less frequently, extending the life of surfaces and making daily cleaning easier.<\/p>\n\n

    To succeed, you should have a cleaning plan that combines both<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n

      \n
    • Daily routines keep surfaces clean and hygienic<\/li>\n\n
    • Periodic tasks ensure that the building does not \u00abfall into disrepair\u00bb over time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
      \u00a0<\/div>\n\n

      Examples of periodic tasks are:<\/p>\n\n
