It is generally known that a clean environment has a positive effect on the human psyche - it increases productivity at the workplace, makes you feel comfortable and pleasant, gives a professional impression and facilitates the performance of daily activities. Spatial arrangement will also dictate the mental arrangement.

Imagine that you set aside every free weekend to clean your apartment building, either the whole by agreement, or just your floor. We believe that for many people, cleaning an apartment is an obligation that they would be happy to get rid of, while cleaning the entire building is a nightmare. One of the solutions is to choose professional building maintenance.

The service of professional maintenance of the building most often includes cleaning the interior of the living space, but also maintaining the quality of the surrounding space.

1) A healthy work environment

In a survey by the International Sanitary Supply Association (ISSA), 88% of 1,481 respondents said that their concentration and productivity were hindered by a messy workspace.

After the publication of this research, many companies began to hire professional agencies to maintain the cleanliness of the premises, in order to improve the productivity of the work team. In our region, it is common for companies to choose an agency that simultaneously offers interior and exterior maintenance services for residential buildings.

Cleaning of business premises refers to regular cleaning of bathrooms and kitchens inside offices, as well as thorough cleaning of floors, doors and windows, vacuuming, maintaining the hygiene of work surfaces, taking out garbage and the like.

If you decide to hire professionals, it means that your employees have enough time to focus on their jobs instead of distributing tasks related to cleaning. What is also important is the fact that a clean workspace is also a healthy space. Office furniture and equipment is a breeding ground for germs and bacteria, and the average keyboard contains up to 7,500 bacteria (per swab). So, the cleaner your office is, the less chance there is for germs to grow and the more protected your staff is.

2) Healthy tenants!

Irregular hygiene maintenance of the interior of the building can result in the excessive appearance of mold, dust and dirt - in the last 20 years or so, allergic diseases have taken on global proportions, and according to WHO data, they are on the list of the first five epidemic diseases.

Every fourth resident suffers from some kind of subtle allergy, and by taking better care of our living spaces, we can reduce the residents' exposure to certain allergens over time.

Therefore, regular cleaning of the entrances, corridors and stairs of the building, as well as the general tidying up of that space are vital items in maintaining the health of its tenants.

Maintenance of the interior of a residential building includes activities such as:

• Sweeping the stairs
• Wiping the stairs with specialized means for breaking down and eliminating dust
• Sweeping the corridors and lobby
• Wiping all surfaces such as handrails, walls, doors and windows
• Removing cobwebs and accumulated dirt

Hiring this help also means removing advertising material, more precisely stickers, posters and unwanted painted motifs from walls and facades. It is a huge mental relief to know that there is someone who is in charge of all these activities, you feel more satisfied, your space is cleaner and your health is safer.

In addition to the above-mentioned activities, all electrical, heating, plumbing, sewage and ventilation failures are covered by building maintenance, so you can relax completely because you really get the entire service.

3) Gardening and prejudice!

When we enter buildings in Podgorica, we often forget that in addition to concrete, something else can be made. With that, we have a prejudice that yards and greenery are only for houses, and those that are a little outside the city. However, the maintenance of green space around the building can also have a strong impact on the overall impression of the tenant as it increases his enjoyment during his stay outside the apartment. Also, the attractiveness of the apartment for potential buyers will be greater if the area around the building is well maintained and professionally arranged.

This maintenance includes activities such as:

• Regular mowing of the grass and watering of the lawn
• Removal of fallen leaves in autumn
• Shrub pruning
• Watering flower areas
• Cleaning of snow and ice during the winter period

Unnecessary carpentry, worn and bulky furniture, as well as defective equipment are often thrown out into the street and thereby spoil the orderliness of the external space, so some building maintenance agencies offer the service of removing this type of garbage.

In addition, the cleaning of yard waste (tidying up the garden, garden or yard) as well as construction waste is included in the maintenance of greenery - regardless of the fact whether it is construction rubble, broken tiles or old pipes, a huge number of agencies offer the possibility of removing these materials from your private or work space.

4) Investment in an peacfully tenancy!

What often holds back tenants and building managers from making the move to a professional maintenance agency is the collective cost that this move entails. However, what all the previously mentioned advantages describe is precisely the long-term investment in relieving the burden on each individual tenant and ensuring their safety and quality of life in the residential area.

It is interesting that in a huge number of buildings this conversation is rarely held, but it is really necessary. If you decide to take this step, you will ensure peace of mind in the long run. Primarily, you relieve your schedule of a huge obligation, you are sure that your invested money really brings benefits, which you notice through the cleanliness and quality of your living space.

Considering that for most people the focus on their apartment is the moment where care stops, it is very important to remind people that the apartment is part of a larger space that can also easily fail due to inadequate maintenance. That's why we recommend investing in your peace of mind!

5) Time is money!

The time you would spend cleaning up the mess yourself, or arguing with your neighbors about their missed obligations costs as much as the money you would invest in professional building maintenance! Save yourself both physical and mental stress and invest your time in something more productive and let this investment leave room for your personal peace!

The fact is that building maintenance doesn't seem like something we want to spend money on, because we can do it ourselves. However, someone has been doing it more efficiently and better for years, and we should give ourselves a chance to invest in the right things.

What is extremely important to consider is the fact that by investing in a building, you are investing in your own apartment, i.e. its market price! If you ever decide to sell or rent out your space, you leave a much better impression if your building is part of a professionally maintained building and until the moment of sale is preserved and arranged in a way that will ensure an attractive offer to a future buyer!

We hope that at the end of our advantages, you can really feel how much better quality, healthier and relaxed your life would be if you would at least leave the responsibilities of the building to someone else.

Enjoy your weekends, without cleaning or stress.
