Cloverdale provides a customised commercial service that’s right for your business
A structured workplan is central to our routine commercial cleaning services. Some parts of your building will need daily attention, others weekly or perhaps monthly. A well designed scope of work for your facility allows attention to be given by zone at an appropriate frequency to ensure that the time spent cleaning your site gets the maximum return for effort.
Our workplans are typically broken into 3 separate workstreams, each of which has a different management technique, equipment requirement and cost profile. Getting the balance right at the time of setting up means that we maximise the commercial value for our clients.
Our service includes:
Office Cleaning Services in Melbourne CBD
Pressure Cleaning Services in Melbourne CBD

Understanding your needs:
The typical building has a myriad of cleaning tasks that need to be undertaken to keep it well maintained. Breaking down this complex web into managed work streams is central to Cloverdale's approach and in getting the basics right from the start.

Set daily work plans
These reflect the basic requirements of each site. The focus here is productivity: ensuring that the fundamental, repetitive tasks are undertaken with the right equipment and focus to maximise value for cleaning hours.
Focus area
The priority day to day are the most heavily trafficked and sensitive areas- Bathrooms, Kitchens, Bins and customer facing zones.
Typical Tasks
Vacuuming, Mopping, Wiping, Scrubbing
Opportunities for efficiency and savings
A well thought through scope of works can support more time being spent cleaning.
- Create centralised bin stations- avoid personal/under desk bins. Small bins are very time consuming to empty and re-line – time is money, and this time can be spent performing other tasks.
- Battery operated vacuums
- Highly efficient wide mouth carpet sweepers
Set weekly/monthly impact plan
Rather than simply allocate cleaning hours out on a linear basis, we deliberately ringfence a portion of the contracted time and our management ensures that these hours are allocated to 1) address more specific tasks in the SOR and 2) to address areas identified as needing attention. Where possible, teams working in crews get the best results.
Our leaders get involved
Cloverdale’s local leadership team is actively involved in performing work alongside our cleaners. Their working times are aligned to when their staff are working so that oversight and support is available.
In an after hours industry we believe that our management’s visibility with our cleaning crew is critical- they bring additional skills, oversight and quality control, but also help foster an environment for our cleaners where they know we care about their work and contribution to our business.
Disruptive work patterns
We deliberately schedule attendance by our local Supervisors to ensure that less frequent tasks that are required are attended to.
We lean heavily on our IT systems to validate this work is being performed and it is central to our Quality Assurance procedures.
Access to skills & equipment
Our local Supervisors can support better outcomes by ensuring equipment that would not normally be held on site is made available for intermittent work.
Sometimes this equipment also needs additional skills/training, which is either contributed by the local Supervisor or passed on to the everyday staff with personalised training.
Planned periodicals
Reflecting less frequent works, priced separately from the daily cleaning, and instigated by mutual agreement. Why? Because these sort of works are typically more difficult to arrange. They often require a degree of planning, an empty building & special equipment to complete.
Planning to avoid disruption
Performing these works are typically high impact on your building. They can involve:
- needing access when no staff or customers are on site,
- loud equipment,
- slip hazards,
- the use of lifting platforms.
As a result, these works need joint planning between Cloverdale and our clients to ensure a safe and responsible outcome for all stakeholders.
Special skills, equipment and crews needed
The sort of work performed periodically for this branch of commercial cleaning can require special equipment, special skills and potential larger crews to complete work in the allotted time.
