Outdoor Cleaners
A team of Outdoor Cleaners ensure that the gardens and other outdoor areas are kept clean and tidy. Special cleans can be arranged for departments, at a small charge, for high profile events.
Contact the Waste Office for more information.
Window Cleaning

Windows across the whole estate are cleaned on a bi-annual basis. Large buildings are cleaned using a specialist team of abseilers.
Cleaning Productivity
Staffing levels for each building have been calculated using the latest cleaning productivity programme to ensure that productivity standards are consistent across the estate, taking into consideration building usage.
Monitoring Standards
We monitor cleaning standards using the Servicetrac quality control programme.
Inspections are carried out by Supervisors regularly and these are then used to produce monthly reports on the standard being produced across the University. This information is then used to target the areas that require extra attention.
