- I've owned my commercial cleaning company for a little over five years. I really enjoy floor care and I developed this method for the deepest clean possible. If you need to degrease your floors, I hope this video helps you.
Hey bro just wanted to say that your channel is amazing!
I currently work a day job however you've inspired me to want to start my own small business.
Thank you for all you do!
Thanks for the compliment my man. You can do it! It's going to be hard, but if you take it slow and learn how to really run a profitable business from day 1, you can do it. Just keep thinking long term.
Hey bud what do you recommend for my auto shop vct break room where they track in car and van grease from their steel toed work boots
Fascinated with your floor care videos! I am learning to do floors with my own buffer.
I have not done strip/wax yet but I’m ready to give it a try on a VCT floor in Pittsburgh.
I’m making great progress and gaining confidence. Your videos are a positive influence on me.
Thanks so much!
Great job on the video! Thank you for putting out simple, concise, actionable content!
Thanks for saying that and thanks for watching.
Love the content you give in all your videos without trying to selling a course. Your very informative. Thanks 🙏
Man, you just made me listening to you the whole video, just because you're an actual PROFESSIONAL ! I hope your job will continue to grow and that you can teach to more people.
Lol, thanks for watching. I hope I can teach more people too!
Miss this guy's cleaning content.
Thank you sir
Bro come back we need you now more than ever.
Brother Man, Your channel is amazing, I am a public school custodian at 2 elemetary schools and the Mainteance yard where all the trades are, I use a lot of your tips in hints myself.
Thanks Mark! You sound like a busy guy!
Hi,
Nice video, found the link via reddit :-)
As a professional myself I have some remarks.....
-Your cables are contaminated if you simply clean them after every job you immediately know if you have cable breaks or so. Just a wet cloth with some degreaser on it.
-The cable over your shoulder when you start scrubbing so that it does not end up on your path.
-With each machine have a loop of the cable in your hand, this acts as a buffer if it gets stuck somewhere or if you stand on it.
-Manage the buffer first at home and watch how you react when you get stuck or something.
-Leave the vacuum cleaner open after use so that it can air out.
-Linoleum or marmoleum do not just deal with degreaser and certainly not with a sharp buffing pad.
etc...
You are certainly experienced but there are still some points to be gained, but that does not all fit in such a video. Good luck my friend.
This is so informative. Grand Hyatt Kauai resort and spa is not doing this anymore. They just sweep and mop the floor and that's it. Reasoning is that kitchen equipments 6 are caused by wet cleaning. So what would you expect under the tables and equipments but rat and cockroach droppingsy.
Love your content my friend!
Very useful! Thanks for sharing. Please can you provide the link of where I can purchase the sunburst degreaser for $10/gal? and daily floor cleaner? I see many different variations online, but not the ones you have shown us here. Also, a link of where I can purchase the wet vac. TIA
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching!
Appreciate your content and your story. Not many people willing to just go out there and work off a dang service. Kudos! What initial equipment would you say is neccessary, the bare essentials? Any chance I can get started for under $300-400? Thanks!
Not a chance. A good used swing scrubber will cost roughly $600 alone. You can expect to spend about $1500 to get the basic stuff.
Sunburst Carrie’s a 2370 2372 and 2374 Heavy Duty. For a McDonalds floor that has not been cleaned in six months, which would you recommend? It is a tile kitchen floor
I really gain knowledge from your videos thanks 4 the info but I have a question? when you send a proposal or invoice itemizing a fee can I include per hour charge or square foot, supply cost, labor hrs, the cost I pay to my employees per hour, specialty cleanings cost, tax, and a percentage of overhead cost, and if I had overhead cost what is the % is common, or do I bill my client just per hour or square foot? please help, I'm so confused as how to properly charge for my services
Its going to depend on the specific job you are doing. If you want a super detailed response, check out my Patreon and I'll make another video for you. www.patreon.com/BecominganEntre. What you want to do is list out all of the tasks the customer wants you to complete. Then put a price next to each item so the customer can decide what they want or don't want depending on the budget. You don't need to tell them your per hour rate, but you should know what it is internally and bid according to that number.
Great video! How do you get small chances to try out new types of cleaning?
If a customer asks me to do something I have never done, i just tell them I have never done it and ask them if they want me to try anyway. I know a lot about cleaning theory, so I can improv a good plan and tell them my intentions before I begin if they want. If they don’t want me to do it then I don’t bother. I only want to do work that I’m comfortable with and enjoy doing.
Hey there…just getting started in restaurant flooring care. How often would you say this needs done? How do you price this type of cleaning? TIA!
Been in the cleaning business for almost 6 years now (nothing like putting on your earphones and zoning out unlike C++) and you nailed the part in which you can get over your head.
For me if I think I might finish an area in a certain amount of time, I multiply it by 1.5 with that I get an approximate time in which I am expected to finish.
One question, ever thought about making a video about the average price of an imaginary building and what will be an appropriate deviation of that average.
robux yeah, I love just listening to RUclips, audiobooks and podcasts or music sometimes while I work. I’ve learned so much while making money at the same time! Your video idea sounds great, I’ll put it on my list and see what happens! Thank you!
Do you use sealer on concrete floors
hi I start to work in a bright new restaurant I'm the cleaning lady LoL the thing is I used to work in a warehouse is my first time cleaning a restaurant so far they are happy with me but I notice the floor getting worst I only cleaning Thursday and Sunday not because I don't want it to cleaning often the owner wants those day and I only clean the restrooms and the floors in the dinning room and bar < and I also work by myself , some days it take me 5 hours and other day 6 hours I need help the floors are kind of like the one you showing in video and I clean it with towels to not leave strikes on them , I have sooooo many question
I was wondering if you have thought about starting a kitchen exhaust hood cleaning company? Apparently restaraunts are required to get there hoods cleaned monthly or semiannualy depending on the restaurant because of fire hazard related issues. The person also doing the cleaning is supposed to be certified according to NFPA 96 standards. Maybe the pay per hour is more than cleaning floors?
What kind and brand wet vacuum you are using. Where can I purchase it
Hey - very good video - to-the-point and informative for us new to the cleaning biz; how often do you do this type of deep cleaning on restaurant floors?
It depends on their needs and budget. For this specific client we go in every 3 months. But sometimes its only 1 or 2 times per year as it can be pretty pricy and most restaurants have thin margins.
@@FreelanceJanitor Do you charge more/less based on times per year? I'd think a quarterly job could have a percentage off and potentially entice a client that is biannual or yearly to possibly consider the savings over time and make the jump to every three months? Any suggestions as to where I can find out about the different cleaning strategies or the different surfaces you commonly work on? Do you charge more per square foot, if the surface is a bitch? If so, what surfaces? This is the first video of yours that I've watched. Great job. Checking out some more! Thanks!!
@@joeharris3653 Actually, there is an entire floor care process that needs to be done year round. It includes 3 different types of services. Pricing is based on the type of service being performed at the time. Maybe I'll make a video about this real quick
@@FreelanceJanitor Hey would it be alright if I maybe emailed you regarding this, I would love to learn a little more.
Hey I appreciate your channel and subbed because I'm starting my cleaning business soon. I know workers that have restaurant, housekeeping, office, carpet and floor experience. At first I mainly want to be a contractor and find the customers for them before I invest in equipment and start working myself. Do you recommend me paying them as contractors and should I be a llc? Can my company offer residential and commercial services at the same time because I already named my company with commercial cleaning in it but decided I want to do residential work aswell? I really appreciate any feedback thanks
Yes u could u can do both bro when people aquire info u can tell them u residential also
I been in cleaning business for 12 yrs
Great video! If you don’t mind sharing, how long did it take to complete the job at this restaurant?
I can’t remember, sorry man.
Great video. On average, how often would a restaurant want this "deep clean" done on their floors? Once/YR, once/Month?
Tim Prince thanks Tim. It depends on the client, their budget, and their needs. Typically every 3,6, or 12 months.
They should do it every 6 months at least if care
Im interested in opening my own business but no cash for the equipment here in Cali the equipment is expensive
Hello from Reddit!!
HELLOOOOOOO! Welcome!
How do you figure out pricing for the restaurant floors?
Square footage, say .32 a square foot, then add more depending on cleaning frequency/ leg work
Hmmm...we hose down the back and wet and dry mop our floors every night. Wonder if we could use you. We are high volume low price restaurant. Lots of fryers.
Yeah, that the typical process for a kitchen. Flooding the floors, scrubbing with a deck brush, then squeegeeing down the drain.
Do you have an SOP manual that you've created for yourself for each of those types of floors, and the best practices steps that you've found are the best way to handle them?
Yes, I have a comprehensive floor care training manual. Everything in my business is documented with video and written guides.
Do the buffer's damage the wax/topcoating?
N0SSC The buffer itself won’t cause damage, but the pad you choose might. If you choose a soft pad, nothing will happen. If you choose something a little more aggressive, it will just take off a layer or two of wax. When you do a heavy degreasing job you don’t need to worry about it though as the floor probably doesn’t have any wax on it to begin with so you can go very aggressive
No it's doesn't just a light wash
Could you do all this without having a van? possibly a car? I noticed the machine that picks up the water is quite large, any alternatives? also how much did all the equipment cost you for floors around?
I don't think you could do this with a car. I did however do it out of the back of an old truck when I first started though. I think it would cost about $15k for all of the tools, including a cheap van.
@@FreelanceJanitor Shit, I got excited and went to the cleaning supplies store today and said I had 2k to work with. He showed me some scrubbers and water vaccumes and said he'd email me with prices. Maybe I can do something like this on a lesser scale.
luke A If you have 2k, I would try and work 2 jobs to save up some cash and pay down debt so your expenses are low. Then I would only buy used tools from Craigslist and I would try and haggle the price as low as you can. You don’t want to buy this stuff new when you are starting out because it’s very hard to sell and the new stuff won’t hold its value. Check out my video on how I funded my business, you might find it helpful
@@FreelanceJanitor Thanks man, ok that makes sense. 15k is a lot. Back to the drawing board. A video on starting a cleaning business with say 1-5k and what niches that suits would be awesome. I feel awkward asking for video topics, but your stuff is really helping me make sense of everything.
Yeah, I'll see what I can do. That is a good idea for a video
Did you apply wax at that restaurant after clean ?
Yes, you’re the first person in 20,000 to notice that it wasn’t in the video lol
Becoming an Entrepreneur great , did you used black pads there ?
Thanks for answer my questions
