Areas Of The Gym We Clean
There’s no part of your gym or fitness centre that we don’t clean. Your staff and gym members have the right to a clean and sanitised environment every time they visit.
Whilst people using the gym should ideally clean and wipe the machines and equipment every time they’re finished using them, often they’ll do an insufficient job and not fully sanitise for the next user. That’s why we recommend daily cleaning, usually late in the evening or early in the morning so we don’t disturb your members during their work-out routine, to make sure your gym is tidy, clean and prepared for members every single day.
Below is an overview of the areas of the gym that we guarantee a daily deep clean with proper sanitisation:
- Gym Equipment Sanitization:All gym equipment and machines. Every single surface of all machines and every individual freeweight, mat, ball and any other specialised equipment you have in the gym.
- Gym Floor & Seating Cleaning: Cleaning, mopping, and disinfecting every single floor in the gym. Not just the workout spaces but also the walkways around the gym to other areas such as office spaces and changing rooms etc. Also any benches, seats and sofas in the gym.
- Bathroom and Locker Room Cleaning: Making sure these busy spots are always clean and smelling nice as they have very high usage. Every toilet, urinal, sink, mirror, shower cubicle and seating area will be sanitised and cleaned daily.
- Waste Management: Getting rid of trash from all bins around the gym.
- Gym Office Space: It’s not just gym members who need a clean and healthy space, your gym’s employees also deserve to come to work in a hygienic environment so we take care of the cleaning for all the office space too.
- Specialised Areas: If your gym has a sauna, steam room or swimming pool area, we will also clean these areas. However for comprehensive swimming pool cleaning, we recommend hiring pool cleaning specialists.
Why Not Leave The Gym Cleaning To Members?
Respectful gym-goes can do a good job of wiping down their equipment and areas after using, but not all gym users do so. Some will wipe half-heartedly, some will wipe with a sweaty towel and not a sanitising wipe, some won’t wipe at all, so it’s best to rely on the professionals to come in and do a deep clean of all surfaces at the end of every day.
Leaving sweat on gym equipment too long can cause serious health issues. A build-up of sweat has several major consequences:
- Skin Irritation & Infections: bacteria from sweat can grow quickly if left alone. This can then move from person to person as new people use equipment, and the combination of multiple people’s sweat can cause even more issues than just one person’s sweat. Skin irritation and bacterial infections are real potential consequences for your gym-members if machines are left unclean. You can imagine the negative customer reivews and gym reputation damage that you can get from bad hygiene practices, which can harm your gym’s revenue.
- Equipment & Surface Damage: our sweat contains salt and is acidic which means if it is left on equipment it can start to damage and degrade it. Sweat can corrode the metal parts of machines, which degrades the structural integrity, safety and efficiency of them. It can also discolour and deteriorate the padded seating of machines, as well as any padaded sofa and seating areas and carpets. Carpet cleaning is a very important and often forgotten part of gym cleaning but it’s extremely important to keep your gym carpets clean as it collects skin, dust and sweat while being constantly put under pressure. Replacing carpet and machinery can be extremely expensive, so you’re better off maintaining your gym equipment with regular cleaning.
- Bad Odours: long-lasting sweat on surfaces can mean bacteria embeds itself into the fabrics and materials which eventually leads to deep-rooted odours which are extremely difficult, or sometimes impossible, to remove. This means an unsatisfactory experience for gym-members who won’t be happy to keep coming back.
