Government & Municipal Building Cleaning 

Public buildings are cleaned under a different kind of scrutiny. The work is ordinary; the accountability is not. What a municipal contract needs is a documented scope, a schedule that is actually held, and a contractor who can show what was done when it is asked for. We write the scope down, work to it, and record it. That matters at contract review, and it matters when a complaint arrives about a specific room on a specific day. A contractor who cannot answer that question is a problem for whoever signed the contract. Public buildings in this county include county government at Mayville as the county seat, city and village offices, libraries, community buildings and public facilities. Most are older, most have hard flooring throughout, and most have a public-facing front section and a working back section with different needs. Public areas take footfall and need consistency. Back office areas need less frequency and more thorough periodic work. Flooring is usually where a public building visibly declines. VCT and sheet vinyl in corridors and public areas need a strip and rewax program rather than indefinite mopping, and the difference between a building on program and one that is not becomes obvious after a couple of years. Older buildings often have original tile or terrazzo under later coverings, and knowing what is actually there changes what method is safe. Entrances take the county's winter directly. Salt tracked into a public building from November through March damages flooring faster than any other single factor, and public entrances take more of it than most.
