A major part of running a business lies outside the business plan and office location. It involves how your spaces are utilized to enhance safety and hygiene for every customer. One of such spaces is the restroom.
Did you know that restrooms are one of the areas that generate more complaints in businesses? The stats show that over 80% of all commercial facility complaints are related to restrooms, with these spaces containing over 20% of the overall facility dirt volume. It is essential, thus, to have clean bathrooms or restrooms to enhance the customer experience.
This article highlights essential reasons why clean bathrooms are a necessity for business growth.
1. Hygiene & Comfort
The first and most obvious reason why a clean bathroom is of utmost importance for commercial facilities is that it reduces and ultimately eliminates the transmission of bacteria and pathogens that cause varying illnesses.
Dirty bathrooms, like any unkempt space, leave the user feeling uncomfortable. Customers are quick to notice a poorly maintained bathroom, and this subconsciously creates frustration with your brand and business.
2. Customer Impression & Business Reputation
Customers rarely make their complaints known to businesses; they include them in their reviews to friends and family, who are potential customers. Negative experiences related to your business, including its cleanliness or sanitation, will spread wildly, which is why a cleaning schedule is always essential.
As a business owner, the impression of the quality of the services you render is directly affected by the cleanliness of your facility. This is especially true for food-related businesses.
3. Sets precedence for consistent cleanliness
What’s easier to clean than a dirty bathroom? A clean one! The cleaner your restrooms are from the start, the better users treat them, which means people will think twice before leaving trash on your clean, shiny floor.
Tips to Keeping Restrooms Clean
Keep it at the top of your facility cleaning schedule to maintain the cleanliness of your bathrooms, keeping them clean, sanitary, and odor-free. A great way to ensure consistency is by stocking up on restroom supplies beforehand and hiring a professional cleaning service to keep the spaces sparkling, always staying on top of dirt and grime. Clean restrooms dont only make customers happy, but they also enable you to translate to more business and higher productivity, a win for all parties involved.
