Why First Impressions Start Before People Walk Through The Door

First impressions form long before anyone enters your building.

Before a customer reaches reception, a visitor attends a meeting, or a new employee starts their first day, they have already formed an opinion. They notice the car park, the windows, the entrance, and the exterior condition of your building.

A clean, well-maintained exterior sends a clear message. It signals care, professionalism, and attention to detail before a conversation has even begun.

This is why exterior cleaning and maintenance should be an important part of your workplace standards.

Your Building Exterior Represents Your Business

The exterior of your building is often the first point of contact with your organisation.

Dirty windows, blocked gutters, stained surfaces, and neglected entrances can shape how people perceive your business. Even if the inside of your workplace is clean, the exterior creates the first impression.

Regular exterior cleaning helps maintain a professional appearance and ensures your building reflects the standards you expect inside.

Clean Windows Create A Brighter Workplace

Windows significantly influence a building’s appearance and ambience.

Over time, dirt, dust, pollution, fingerprints, and weather stains accumulate on glass, making the building look older and less maintained. Regular professional window cleaning helps maintain your property’s fresh exterior and enhances indoor comfort.

Clean windows let in more natural light, creating a brighter, more inviting space for employees and visitors.

Don’t Forget Fascias, Soffits, and Gutters

Some areas of a building are easy to overlook.

Fascias, soffits, and gutters may not receive daily attention, yet they play an important role in maintaining your property.

Over time, dirt, algae, and debris can build up, affecting both appearance and performance. Blocked gutters can prevent rainwater from draining properly, increasing the risk of overflow and causing avoidable problems.

Routine cleaning of fascias, soffits, and gutters helps keep your building looking professional while supporting long-term maintenance.

Pressure Washing Restores High-Traffic Areas

External surfaces are constantly exposed.

Footpaths, entrances, loading areas, and outdoor spaces accumulate dirt throughout the year. Weather, foot traffic, and everyday use can leave surfaces looking tired.

Professional pressure washing removes built-up dirt and helps restore these areas, creating a cleaner, more welcoming arrival experience.

For customer-facing businesses, these details matter.

Exterior Cleaning Supports Workplace Standards

A well-maintained building exterior does more than improve appearance.

It supports:

  • Customer confidence
  • Employee pride
  • Visitor experience
  • Property maintenance
  • Brand reputation

When people see a well-maintained building, it influences how they view the organisation behind it.

Maintaining Standards Inside And Out

Cleaning should not stop at the front door.

The most professional environments maintain consistent standards throughout the property. From exterior windows and entrances to internal offices, washrooms, and shared spaces, every area contributes to the overall impression.

A structured cleaning approach helps businesses stay ahead of problems rather than waiting for issues to become obvious.

Helping Your Workplace Make The Right Impression

At ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services, we support businesses with professional cleaning solutions that help maintain high standards inside and outside their buildings.

From exterior window, fascia, soffit, and gutter cleaning and pressure washing to regular workplace cleaning, our teams help create environments that look professional and feel cared for.

3 easy ways to keep your office energy-efficient

Our top tips for creating an energy-efficient office. 

It takes a lot to run a company, from guts to smarts and plenty of funding.

But, there is also a growing focus on collective responsibility.

Although, with the cost-of-living crisis still taking centre stage in the UK, many are focusing on costs above thoughts of sustainability business models.

In fact, according to Forbes, although 90% of businesses think that sustainability is essential, only 60% of companies have a sustainability strategy in place.

However, energy-efficient office conserves money in more ways than you might think.

Saving energy in the office is one of the easiest ways to save money and support the environment.

In this blog post, see how you can make a difference to our planet and your bottom line with three easy ways to keep your office energy-efficient from ServiceMaster Clean.

Easy Office Energy Saving Tips

  1. Replace your light bulbs.

If your lightbulbs are not energy efficient, replace them with ENERGY STAR®-qualified light bulbs, which include compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs).

These use about 70% less energy than incandescent bulbs and last longer.

Yes, you read that right – you save money on energy bills and at the store when you go CFL.

While LED lights are even more energy efficient, they tend to be more cost-prohibitive for businesses.

You can encourage employees with desk lamps to use LED lights or calculate whether the longevity of LED lights is worth the initial investment.

Additionally, remind employees to turn off the unused lights in empty rooms.

Furthermore, open blinds and use natural lighting as often as you can during the day to keep energy use down even more.

  1. Turn off computers when not in use.

One of the most commonly missed office energy-saving tips is turning off equipment at the end of the day or during periods of low usage.

During the day, ask employees to use the hibernation feature on their computers if they step away from their desks.

This mode reduces the energy emitted from the monitors and the computer itself.

You can also shut down computers completely before closing each day for more savings.

Remember that even when electronics are off, they use energy if plugged in.

The NRDC reports that this wasted energy adds up to around the amount of electricity produced by 50 large (500-megawatt) power plants yearly!

If your office is going on a lengthy holiday break, unplug energy-sucking equipment like printers, microwaves, coffee machines, vending machines, lights and more.

  1. Go paperless as often as you can.

Set up systems that allow employees to work electronically as often as possible and only print things when necessary.

This will help prolong the life of your printer, paper and ink/toner and also help reduce your energy costs and protect against deforestation in one fell swoop.

If you must print a document, print it in black and white.

That way, you save money on printer ink or toner and help keep excess consumables, including toner cartridges, from filling landfills.

Also, consider using copy paper with the highest percentage of recycled paper content.

You can also utilize local recycling services for your waste paper.

The future is now.

If you’re ready to make these three easy energy-saving changes, there’s no better time to start than now.

Gather your staff to explain the easy ways to keep your office energy-efficient

Soon, the savings accumulate, and you’ll feel good knowing your business is acting as a responsible corporate citizen.

ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP: Bettering the environment with Grow My Tree Initiatives

How ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP are working with Impact Hero to support the environment with Grow My Tree initiatives.

In today’s world, climate change is an ever-growing factor in our lives and social and moral consciousness.

This naturally affects the way we, as a society, are doing business.

Particularly as more businesses recognise the importance of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), as over 52% of business owners believe that a successful CSR strategy can add value to a business.

However, when it comes to sustainability and green initiatives – according to Forbes – although 90% of companies think sustainability is essential, only 60% have implemented a sustainability strategy.

The team at ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP are amongst the minority of businesses in the UK, including other ServiceMaster Clean businesses, who are affecting positive change with tree planting initiatives.

Grow My Tree Initiatives

This year, the award-winning team at LNP teamed up with Impact Hero, a platform that empowers companies like ServiceMaster Clean to embody a Net Positive approach to business.

Together, they are working to plant a tree in honour of every new client that achieves a specific spend as part of the team’s ongoing commitment to fight climate change and as an effective and sustainable way forward.

This naturally combats climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide, outputting oxygen, and ensuring healthy soil.

One new tree neutralises approximately 22kg of carbon dioxide, and since August, the team have planted 16 trees, the offsetting outcome of which is approximate to the carbon dioxide output of:

  • Consuming 9,600g of beef
  • Consuming 2544kg of vegetables
  • 16 train journeys between Cologne – Munich
  • 3,68% of one person’s annual CO2 emissions

Denise Ces Agraso, Head of Payroll, Pensions, and HR at ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services LNP, says:

“We are delighted to report that since teaming up with Impact Hero, we have planted 16 trees!”

“We believe that taking action against climate change is crucial, and we are proud to offer this unique opportunity to new clients.”

“Together, we can make a positive impact on our environment.”

General Manager Lee Redfern says:

“It makes me immensely proud when we received these awards, as it reflects just how hard everyone has worked in the business to get us to this level.”

He attributes the growth and successes of the business to,

“A mixture of having a good base template to start and train from, setting ourselves high standards, and having a Team right throughout the three areas we look after, from Sales, to Operations, our office-based staff, the Delivery Team, and ultimately our cleaners, who all want to achieve the same thing, and help the company grow, whilst providing a great service for our customers.”

ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services Staff featured on ITV News

A staff member from ServiceMaster LNP has been featured on ITV News as part of a story on International Women’s Day.

Davinder Ghattoura, one of the Area Supervisors at ServiceMaster Clean Contract Services in Leicester, has become a local hero after featuring in a story for ITV News.

The story, for International Women’s Day, focused on an initiative from Leicester City Football Club to encourage women into the sport.

The Leicester City Active Women programme is headed by Rukshana Hussain, who aims to support local women by helping them get into the sport to improve their social and physical skills.

Davinder, who works for ServiceMaster LNP, was interviewed by ITV News’ Arul Lal as one of the many women who have taken part in and benefitted from the scheme since it launched in May 2022.

Speaking on the importance of women’s contribution and participation in football and other sports, Davinder told ITV News:

“Women need to be recognised.”

“You’re not just the housewife doing the cooking,” she said.

“You can go out there, you can do sports. Any sport you like.”

Davinder also highlighted the significance of schemes like Leicester City Active Women, which foster belief and encourage women from all backgrounds to break out of traditional societal expectations and moulds.

Particularly the support from other women, Davinder says.

“You need to get encouragement from other women.”

Heading towards its first anniversary, the scheme’s leader says it goes beyond football, as there is such value in providing a community for women who need a space, a voice, and encouragement from their peers.
