What is the Difference Between a Commercial Cleaner and a Residential Cleaner?

When hiring a cleaner it is important to differentiate between whether you need a commercial cleaner or a residential cleaner. Most people when they hear commercial, think better or heavy-duty, but that isn’t always the case. To give some clarity, a commercial cleaner, such as ProImage, is for business cleaning. Picking up commercial waste, heavy cleaning for office buildings, and disinfecting equipment. A residential cleaner on the other hand is for cleaning rooms found in a home. They will do common household chores, such as vacuuming, dusting, wiping down counters, or cleaning bathrooms.

A residential cleaner will clean rooms such as bathrooms, bedrooms, living rooms, kitchens, and other rooms in your house or apartment. Typically, they don’t use heavy machinery or specialty equipment as this isn’t necessary for most homes. Some residential cleaners have specialties for some of the tougher at-home jobs such as floor shining, carpet cleaning and steaming, or hard-to-reach places that collect dust.

A commercial cleaner will clean locations such as offices, buildings – nonresidential, and retail locations. They will also use different techniques and chemicals than residential cleaners due to commercial locations needing to maintain a higher level of hygiene. It is important to make sure that these spaces are regularly maintained in order to prevent disturbances in your day-to-day operations.
