| Our
goal is to match your facility cleanliness requirements with a comprehensive
and sustainable cleaning plan that meets your budget.

Facility
& Office Cleaning:
Office
Cleaning
At BCM, our approach is: If it's in the room, clean
it. That means that all furniture, fixtures, shelving, tables, chairs
and any other hand height horizontal surfaces are wiped each service trip.
Some surfaces may require we clean with a dry, lint-free cloth while others
would be better cleaned with a cloth treated with a liquid cleaner/disinfectant
so as to remove fingerprints and smudges caused by contact with body oils.
Cleaning
chemicals are never directly sprayed on delicate surfaces or electronic
equipment. They are always sprayed on a cloth which is then wiped over
all accessible surfaces. This
removes germs, fingerprints & smudges and leaves the surface streak-free.
Damp cleaning also improves indoor air quality because dust is held in
the cloth and not moved around and dissipated into the air.

Floor
Care Services:
Wood
Floor Care
Wood floors are susceptible to water damage and must be sealed before
any water based cleaners can be used. There are acceptable water based
sealers which are odor free and can be used around food and retail stock,
and there are highly toxic sealers which are longer lasting and are applied
in empty rooms or warehouses because of the strong residual odors.
Wood
flooring requires highly-trained floor care specialists to ensure your
wood floor keeps looking its best.
Ceramic
Tile
Most ceramic tile used in washrooms are glazed. They require cleaning
with a disinfectant cleaner. The grouting requires special brushes to
reach down into the recessed area of the grout.
If
heavy odors persist (especially urine around the urinals or toilet bowls),
then enzyme control is recommended, and disinfectants cannot be used with
this. Sealing unglazed ceramic tile in washrooms and showers is also not
recommended.
Resilient
Tile
There are floor care programs based on the appearance level you desire
for your resilient floor, ranging from "clean and bright" to
"wet look." The appearance level you desire determines the labor,
products, and machines required to accomplish the job, and this, of course,
determines the cost.
Terrazzo
Floor
Not everyone wants a high gloss, wet look, terrazzo floor, especially
where elderly and infirm people walk (i.e., nursing and retirement homes).
Special products and trained personnel can accomplish this appearance
level, or give your terrazzo floor the wet look you may want.
Concrete
Floor
Concrete floors are found in many different areas, some requiring continued
maintenance and high gloss appearance; while other concrete floors are
in out-of-the-way places and just require dust mopping occasionally.
If
you have a manufacturing plant or industrial warehouse, we offer many
types of seals and coatings for durability against heavy machines and
lift trucks.

Carpet
& Upholstery Services:
HOST®
Dry Extraction
HOST® Dry Extraction system is recommended by carpet manufacuturers
worldwide. The HOST Sponges Cleaner dissolves, absorbs and captures soil,
stains and odors. The Sponges are brushed into the carpet with counter
revolving brushes and then removed by vacuuming. The carpet is left clean,
dry and ready for use.
Wet
Extraction Cleaning
Wet extraction involves the application of hot water under pressure to
loosen dirt and impacted debris, and "floats" it to to where
the following vacuum suction is, and pulls it out of the carpet fibers.
This type of cleaning is sometimes mistakenly referred to as "steam
cleaning."
Dry
Foam Shampooing
Often referred to as dry cleaning, because so little water is used, foam
is produced through a generator and combed over the carpet surface and
through the fibers to clean all around. Once the foam dissipates and dries,
usually in half an hour to forty-five minutes, the floor is ready for
foot traffic again.

Windows,
Glass & Blind Services:
Windows
& Glass
Very few things add as much sparkle to a facility as clean window glass.
Entrance doors, transom windows, perimeter wall windows should be cleaned
regularly. It is most cost effective to clean the exterior surfaces at
least twice yearly and interior surfaces at least once yearly.
Blind
Cleaning
Even sparkling clean windows can appear dull if you have dusty & dirty
blinds. We offer hand dusting & washing or ultra-sonic cleaning (depending
on your blind type) and suggest they be cleaned at least once yearly.
