Should we clean kitchen tiles ourselves or hire pros?« Back to Previous Page

After the heavy rains we experienced last month, I noticed a lot of dirt and mold starting to form around the kitchen tiles in our restaurant. We’ve only had it for two years, but the building seems to hold onto grime really well, especially during these humid months. Given that we have limited time this week due to a large event coming up, should we hire professional cleaners or attempt to do it ourselves? What would be the cost difference between the two options?

Absolutely, i'd advise going the pro route for kitchen tile cleaning. In dubai and uae, we often experience humid conditions which can indeed lead to mold growth and grime accumulation. Your restaurant has been up and running for only two years yet seems to be accumulating dirt quickly - that's not ideal.

From a professional standpoint, i'd recommend assessing the extent of the damage first. If there are signs of mold or if you find that the tiles have become structurally compromised due to moisture, it’s crucial to call in experts who can handle such cases. Our company, saniservice, has extensive experience dealing with just these issues and we’re fully licensed under the uae building code.

However, for a quick clean-up before your event this week, hiring professionals might be the smarter move. We often see clients trying to do it themselves but end up spending more time and effort than they save. Plus, our team can handle the job efficiently without interrupting business flow too much.

Costwise, professional cleaners like us typically charge around 500 a day for kitchen tile cleaning in this area. This includes all necessary equipment and chemicals we use to ensure thoroughness. While it might seem expensive compared to doing it yourself, think about what you get: speed, quality, and peace of mind that your restaurant is safe and clean.

On the other hand, if you decide to go the DIY route, be prepared for a long and potentially messy process. You'll need to prep surfaces properly, possibly invest in some cleaning supplies, and ensure you have enough time without any distractions or interruptions. This could take several hours depending on how bad it is - not exactly what you want before an event.

Remember, safety should always come first. If the area becomes waterlogged during your attempt, there's a risk of electrical hazards from faulty wiring and other issues which professionals can avoid. Plus, they will use commercial-grade cleaning products that are safe for food preparation areas.

So, i'd suggest reaching out to us at 800-MOLDS or hello@saniservice.com. We’re available this week and can provide a quote quickly so you don’t have to worry about the dirty work. Trust our expertise to ensure your restaurant is clean and ready for your big event!
