Cleaning in Berg am Laim

In Berg am Laim, homes and businesses often share the same street. That is convenient when several jobs can be done in one day – and it calls for consideration, because operating hours and residential quiet do not always sit well together. So we agree the times in advance and keep to them.

The stairwells here are straightforward: straight flights, cast-stone or terrazzo steps, a simple balustrade. There are no delicate materials, but many parties. We agree a fixed cycle, record the scope in writing, and report what we notice – a broken light, a leaking pipe, permanently stored items.

The handrail is touched by everyone and never looks dirty — it is the surface by which most is passed on in the building. Because you cannot tell by looking, it is fixed in our scope and not left to the judgement of the day.

How the district grew

Berg am Laim was a village on a slight rise east of the city. From that time comes the baroque church of St Michael, which still marks the old village centre.

The railway changed the district more than anything else. With the Ostbahnhof and the sidings came firms, workshops and storage — and with them housing for the workforce. Building happened in the 1920s and then heavily in the 1950s and 1960s.

Today the district is a close mix: residential terraces of three to five storeys, retail parades on the main roads, commercial yards and halls between them. There is little old fabric here and correspondingly few delicate materials.

What is different here

Shops and commercial units

With shops the timing decides everything else: in between, cleaning disrupts more than it helps. The shop window and the entrance door soil fastest, because someone is always passing them — they need a shorter interval than the rest of the floor, and that belongs in the job rather than in the follow-up.

In commercial units the effort lies where many people across several shifts touch the same surface. So we go over the contact surfaces at every visit, even when they look clean; what follows depends on the time that is left.

Timing and one building

Because housing and business sit so close here, we watch the clock. In a residential building we do not start earlier than the house rules permit, and in a business we stay clear of the shift change. Within our window of Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 20:00, we fit around what applies on site – not the other way round.

In Berg am Laim, homes and businesses often share a building – a shop below, four flats above. For scheduling that means one journey, two clients and two separate invoices. If you need both, tell us before we set out the week; afterwards two working days can no longer be merged into one.

Questions from this district

Can you do a residential building and a shop on the same day?

Yes, and here it often makes sense because the two are close together. Travel costs then arise only once – €18 per working day and job. No VAT is charged, in accordance with § 19 of the German VAT Act.

Do you also clean production areas?

We clean office, staff and washroom areas. We enter areas with running machinery only by arrangement and with clearance; machine cleaning of hall floors is not part of our offer.

From when may you work in a residential building?

We follow your house rules. Our hours are Monday to Friday, 08:00 to 20:00; if the house rules set tighter times, we keep to those.

What does a visit in Berg am Laim cost?

By time: €25 per person and working hour, plus €18 travel costs once per working day and job. A site visit with no job following costs €40. There is no minimum order value.
