Checklist

All Works Clean LTD: Communal Areas Checklist

1. Entrance & Lobby (The "First Impression" Zone)

  • Entrance Glass: Clean all fingerprints and smudges from front doors (inside and out).

  • Floor Mats: Vacuum heavy-duty entrance mats; lift and sweep/mop underneath them.

  • Metalwork: Polish brass or chrome door handles, kick plates, and intercom panels.

  • Mailboxes: Dust the tops and wipe down the front of all individual letterboxes.

2. Stairs, Landings & Hallways

  • Bannisters & Railings: Wipe down handrails with sanitiser (high-touch area).

  • Skirting Boards: Dust or damp-wipe all skirting boards to remove "scuff" marks.

  • Light Fixtures: Remove cobwebs from corners and dust reachable hallway light fittings.

  • Window Sills: Dust all internal sills; remove any dead insects or debris.

  • Fire Safety Check: Report any bulky items (bikes, boxes) left in hallways that block fire exits.

3. Lifts (Vertical Travel)

  • Mirror & Stainless Steel: Polish lift mirrors and stainless steel walls to a streak-free finish.

  • Control Panels: Sanitize all buttons (inside the lift and on each floor landing).

  • Lift Tracks: Vacuum the floor tracks where the doors slide (debris here often causes lift breakdowns).

4. Bin Stores & External Areas

  • Bin Rotation: Ensure bins are tidy and accessible for collection.

  • Sanitisation: Spray and wipe bin lids and handles.

  • Litter Pick: Clear any loose litter from the immediate front entrance or car park perimeter.

5. Management & Safety

  • Bulb Watch: Check if any communal lights are out and report them via ProCleanerUK.

  • Smell Check: Use a neutral, professional air freshener and avoid "fruity" scents. Aim for "fresh/linen."

  • Sign-Off: Update the onsite "Cleaning Log" (if the building keeps a physical one) and complete the digital task list in your system.
