A catering venue is cleaned at night or early in the morning, between closing and opening, and that window governs everything. The scope is set to fit the time, not the other way round, which is why when quoting we ask first about the hours and only then about the floor area.
A commercial kitchen is subject to separate sanitary requirements and part of the work there is done by the venue's own staff under its own procedures. We handle floors, generally accessible surfaces and the wash-up area, provided the scope is agreed in writing at the quoting stage. Catering equipment such as convection ovens, fryers and extraction hoods is not something we clean; that is technical servicing, not cleaning.
In a venue with an open kitchen, grease settles on the floor across the whole dining room, not only along the waiters' route. An ordinary mop leaves a film that picks up dirt faster the next day than a clean floor does, which is why we work with degreasers matched to the type of flooring.
In catering they wear out several times faster than at home: food, drinks and hundreds of contacts a day. Cleaning a chair costs 20 zł and an armchair 50 zł, and with a set of several dozen pieces we do it in a single night. A sensible rhythm is every six months.
The base rate is 2 zł per square metre with a minimum order of 200 zł, quoted after a description of the venue and the frequency. One collective invoice a month, with a 15 % discount for a daily or weekly schedule.
We do not clean extraction systems or ventilation ducts, we do not service grease separators, we do not handle waste beyond taking it to the designated place, and we do not clean shop windows from outside using a lift.
Most of the venues we service are in Śródmieście, along Piotrkowska and in Manufaktura, but we travel across the whole of Lodz. Travel is included in the price of the service.
In a venue on a busy street, and on Piotrkowska that is the rule, the glass loses its look from the inside within two days. Cleaning the glazing is part of the visit, but windows counted as separate items are 40 zł each, and with large shop windows we agree that at the quoting stage.
A fifty-seat dining room with toilets takes about three hours for one person. For larger venues we send two, so the job closes before opening rather than leaving part of it for the next day.
Yes, after the venue closes, in a window agreed with the staff.
The manager or security. Key collection for 30 zł is also possible.
We can clean, but we do not replace the HACCP procedures run by the venue.
