Key takeaways
- Put the scope for every area of the building in writing.
- Tie the contract to a clear visit schedule and a task list per visit.
- Agree how quality, reporting and communication will work.
- Add less frequent services such as facades and tanks to the same contract.
Managing a residential or commercial compound means handling residents’ and tenants’ cleaning remarks every day. A clear recurring contract turns cleaning from reaction into a steady system you can monitor and measure.
1. Scope for every area
Write down the areas covered and what each needs:
- Entrances and reception lobbies.
- Corridors, stairs and lifts.
- Shared washrooms and pantries.
- Parking, roofs and outdoor areas.
- Interior glass, doors and touch points.
2. Visit schedule
| Area | Suggested frequency (depends on size and traffic) |
|---|---|
| Entrances and lifts | Daily or several times a week |
| Corridors and stairs | Weekly or more |
| Shared washrooms | Daily in commercial buildings |
| Interior glass | Weekly or fortnightly |
| Parking and roofs | Monthly |
| Exterior facades | Based on location and dust exposure |
| Water tanks | At least every six months |
3. Quality standards and task lists
Agree a written task list for each visit and how it will be checked: a joint walk-through, a signed checklist, or before-and-after photos.
4. Staffing and supervision
Decide whether you need dedicated on-site staff or scheduled visits, who the responsible supervisor is, and how absences are covered.
5. Materials and equipment
State who supplies materials and equipment, and require cleaners and disinfectants that are safe and suited to each surface — especially marble and glass.
6. Reporting and communication
A direct channel (such as WhatsApp) for remarks, plus a visit report or a short monthly report for building management.
7. Price and contract length
Pricing depends on area, facilities, visits or staffing, surface types and contract length. Spell out payment terms, the VAT invoice and how renewal or termination works.
Summary
A good contract defines what gets cleaned, when, to what standard, and how results are tracked. Takamul provides building and complex cleaning in Riyadh on monthly and annual contracts, and facade cleaning and tank cleaning can be included in the same agreement.
FAQ
What is the difference between a monthly contract and a one-off visit?
A monthly contract gives a fixed schedule, a recurring task list and clearer long-term pricing; a one-off visit suits deep cleans or temporary needs.
Can facade and tank cleaning be added to the cleaning contract?
Yes, and it is recommended — these services are scheduled periodically (for example every six months for tanks) within the same contract.
How is a cleaning contract priced?
By area, facilities, number of visits or on-site staff, surface types and contract length, set after an assessment.
