We’ve all seen the social media trends: a little vinegar here, some baking soda there, a splash of lemon juice for that “fresh” scent. Those DIY mixes are fine for a salad dressing or a science-fair volcano, but they don’t belong in a professional Sioux Falls office.
At Optimal Prime Cleaning Services, we know there’s a real difference between a room that smells clean and a room that actually is sanitary. In a commercial space, you’re not just fighting dust. You’re dealing with germs on the surfaces people touch all day. Here’s why we stick to professional-grade products over kitchen-cabinet hacks.
Vinegar and water might push dirt around, but they aren’t a match for a broad range of bacteria and viruses.
EPA List N. The disinfectants we use are EPA-registered, including products on the EPA’s List N, its list of disinfectants for use against COVID-19. While a lot of people were scrambling to find effective products, we were already using them.
Dwell time is the whole point. A disinfectant only works if it stays wet on the surface for the contact time its label requires. We give it that time, so your high-touch surfaces aren’t just wiped down, they’re properly disinfected.
Using professional chemicals means handling them responsibly. We don’t just stash supplies in a closet and hope for the best.
SDS on hand. We keep up-to-date Safety Data Sheets for every chemical we use. You have a right to know what’s being used in your space, and it’s available the moment you ask.
QR codes in the closet. In our cleaning closets, we post scannable QR codes. You or your staff can scan one anytime to see exactly what products are in use and their safety information.
We’ll be the first to say it: we’re human, and once in a while something gets missed, a trash can, or a door that wasn’t locked the way you like it.
The difference is what happens next. Plenty of companies say they care about quality; we’d rather you ask our current Sioux Falls clients how fast we respond. When a mistake gets reported, we don’t make excuses, we fix it. We review job notes digitally before every shift to head off errors, and we run regular 25-point inspections to catch the small things before they turn into big ones.
DIY cleaning is inconsistent. One batch of vinegar is stronger than the last, and the wrong “hack” can etch a stone countertop or dull LVP flooring.
With standardized, professional-grade products and trained crews, we deliver the same result every night. Your office doesn’t just look good for the first ten minutes of the day; it stays genuinely clean through the whole week.
