Each page is written for that venue and nothing else. If a paragraph on it could be moved to another industry's page unchanged, it should not be on it.

Restaurant Cleaning ServicesGrease travels. We clean the line, the canopy face, the wall behind the fryer, the floor grout and the drains — after close, so the kitchen is cold and the pass is clear.How we clean restaurants
Cafe Cleaning ServicesMilk protein, coffee oil and sugar syrup make a film that a general cleaner wipes over rather than off. We clean the grinder bay, the under-counter and the front of house before open.How we clean cafes
Retail Store CleaningThe floor and the glass are the store. We clean between roller-door down and doors open, working around stock, fitting rooms, the till bay and the back-of-house nobody sees.How we clean retail
Gym Cleaning ServicesSweat, rubber crumb and chalk are three different problems and only one of them comes off with a spray bottle. We clean equipment, matting, mirrors and change rooms before the 5am scan-ins.How we clean gyms
Medical Practice CleaningConsult rooms, treatment rooms and a waiting room full of unwell people. Clinical zones and public zones get different cloths, different chemistry and different order of work.How we clean medical practices
Dental Practice CleaningA surgery is not an office with a chair in it. We clean around the chair, the delivery unit, the light handles and the spittoon surround — and we do not go near instruments or sharps.How we clean dental practices
Childcare Centre CleaningEverything gets touched, mouthed and sat on. Low tables, mats, cots, toy shelving, nappy-change benches and toilets — cleaned overnight by WWCC-cleared cleaners, low-odour chemistry only.How we clean childcare centres
School Cleaning ServicesCleaning around a bell timetable, not around an office. Classrooms and amenities daily, the halls and canteens on their own cycle, and the heavy work moved into the holidays.How we clean schools
Warehouse Cleaning ServicesA live site with forklifts in it. Scrubbed aisles, dusted racking, swept docks and clear line-marking — worked around your pick, pack and dispatch runs, never through them.How we clean warehouses
Office Cleaning ServicesJudged every morning on three things: the kitchen sink, the bins and the handprint on the front door. So those are the priority in the scope, not the afterthought.How we clean offices
Hotel Cleaning ServicesThe public areas, not the rooms. Lobby, reception, lifts, corridors, back-of-house and the guest bathrooms off the foyer — cleaned continuously, because a hotel never closes.How we clean hotels
Strata Cleaning ServicesCommon property only, and reported to the committee. Foyers, lifts, fire stairs, bin rooms, basement car parks and the glass everyone's fingerprints are on.How we clean strata schemes

Access windows

When each kind of premises can actually be cleaned

The single thing that separates a cleaning contractor who understands your venue from one who does not. A schedule that does not fit the operation gets skipped, and a scope that quietly stops happening is worse than one that was never promised.

Typical Clean Best cleaning window by industry, and the operational reason for it
Area	When we clean it	Why that window
Restaurants and cafes	After close, once the equipment is cold	Hot surfaces cannot be degreased and a kitchen mid-service has no floor space. The clean starts when the last plate is out.
Retail stores	Between roller-door down and the alarm going on	The window is short and fixed, so the scope is built to fit it rather than the other way round.
Gyms	Overnight or pre-dawn, before the first member scans in	Equipment has to be dry and the floor has to be walkable by opening. Anything wet at 5am is a fall.
Medical and dental practices	After the last patient, clinical zones last	Public areas are cleaned first and clinical rooms last, so nothing travels from a waiting room into a treatment room.
Childcare centres	Overnight, with no children on the premises	Every surface is at child height and everything gets mouthed. It is cleaned when the rooms are empty, with low-odour chemistry.
Schools	Around the bell; the heavy work in the holidays	Classrooms and amenities daily, halls and canteens on their own cycle, and floor programs moved to the term breaks.
Warehouses	Around your pick and dispatch runs	A wet floor under a live forklift is a hazard, not an inconvenience. We work the aisles you are not working.
Offices	Evening, finished before the first person arrives	The floor is judged in the morning, so the work has to be finished and the floor secured before anyone sees it.
Hotels	Continuously — a hotel never closes	Public areas cannot be taken out of service, so they are cleaned in rotation with the quietest hours doing the heaviest work.
Strata schemes	Daytime, common property only	Residents are home at night. Foyers, lifts, stairs, bins and car parks are done in daylight and reported to the committee.

How it works

How a scope gets written, whatever your industry

Four steps. The second one is the one nobody else does.

1
Tell us what the premises is
Call 02 5839 3012. The first question is never square metres. It is what kind of venue you run, what is in it, and what hours it is empty.
2
We walk it at the hour we would clean it
A supervisor comes out — and comes out late if that is when the work would happen. A kitchen at 11pm and a kitchen at 2pm are two different buildings.
3
A scope written for your venue
Within 24 hours: one fixed figure, and a task list split into every-visit, weekly and periodic work. Written for your industry, not adapted from an office.
4
The same cleaner starts
Inducted on your access and your equipment, starting on the agreed date, with a named supervisor auditing the site monthly against the written scope.

FAQ

Questions about how we split the work by industry

What operators ask before moving off a one-size cleaning contract.

How do I know which industry page applies to my premises?

Clean Best organises these pages by the kind of building, not by the job title of the person reading. Pick the page that matches what your premises physically is: if you run a bakery with seating, the cafe page will describe your morning better than the retail page will. If you are not sure, ring us on 02 5839 3012 and describe the room. It takes about ninety seconds and it is a better guide than any menu.

My premises is not one of the twelve. Can you still clean it?

Often, yes. Clean Best regularly works in venues that are close cousins of these twelve — veterinary clinics, allied health suites, places of worship, showrooms, function rooms, community centres. What we will not do is take a job we cannot do properly and work it out afterwards. Ring us, describe the premises, and we will tell you plainly whether it is close enough to something we already run a scope for, or whether you are better off with a specialist.

Can one contract cover more than one kind of premises?

Yes, and it is common. A group that runs a cafe, an office and a warehouse gets three scopes, three schedules and three inducted cleaners — but one supervisor, one site register and one invoice. What we will not do is write one scope and apply it to all three, which is the shortcut that produced most of the bad cleaning contracts these pages describe.

Do the cleaners actually change between industries?

The person does not necessarily change, but the induction always does. A Clean Best cleaner assigned to a dental surgery is inducted on that surgery: what to touch, what never to touch, what the chemistry is for each surface, and what to do if something looks wrong. A cleaner assigned to a warehouse is inducted on traffic, exclusion zones and hi-vis. The same cleaner may hold both inductions. Nobody works a site they have not been inducted on.

Where does Clean Best actually operate?

Clean Best operates in Sydney and across New South Wales from one depot at 54 Columbia Rd, Seven Hills NSW 2147. There are no interstate branches. If a premises sits outside the area we can staff with the same cleaner every week, we say so on the first call rather than take the work and subcontract it to somebody we have never met.

What is on every scope, regardless of industry?

Clean Best puts four things on every scope, whatever the venue: the tasks done every visit, the tasks that rotate weekly, the periodic programs and when they fall, and the access procedure — how the cleaner gets in, how the premises is secured on exit, and who holds the keys. Everything else on the document is specific to your industry, and if it could be lifted onto another industry's scope unchanged, it should not be there.
