When arranging cleaning in İlyağı mahallesi, Elmalı, Antalya, the phrase “general cleaning” may not define the work well enough. An office may have files and computers that must remain in place, while a mark noticed after glass cleaning may need separate assessment. In a vacant flat, the person holding the key and the availability of water and electricity should be clarified before work is discussed.
Match the scope to the type of work
Home cleaning covers kitchens, bathrooms and living areas with attention to the surface involved. Office and workplace cleaning addresses workspaces, shared areas and toilets. Post-construction work separates bulky debris from fine cleaning and staged dust removal. Vacant-flat cleaning can include cupboard interiors, floors, kitchens and bathrooms. Apartment or site cleaning concerns common areas; villa cleaning may involve floors, rooms, stairs and accessible glass. Upholstery cleaning depends on the fabric label, and glass cleaning depends on access and surface condition.
Further scope details are available on the office and workplace cleaning, glass cleaning and vacant-flat cleaning pages.
Set boundaries around documents and electronics
In an office, document destruction, filing and electronic repair are not cleaning tasks. The cleaning boundary can, however, identify which desk surfaces will be wiped, whether files on open shelves may be moved, and how work will take place around keyboards, monitors and printers.
A useful distinction is between in-place surface cleaning and detailed cleaning that requires items to be removed. If active documents, personal belongings or devices remain on a desk, in-place cleaning may be appropriate. Where objects must be moved, the responsible person can organise them beforehand. Disconnecting equipment, opening a device or applying liquid should not be assumed; the manufacturer’s care instructions should guide any agreed boundary.
Do not treat every glass mark as damage
A visible mark on glass can have different causes: dust, cleaning-product residue, paint or mortar splash, a scratch, or an issue with a coating can look similar. This matters particularly after construction, where residue removal should not be considered separately from the sensitivity of the surface. Trying to identify scratches by using a finger or fingernail is not a reliable diagnostic method.
Before cleaning, it is useful to record existing questionable marks with photographs, identify which panes are accessible, and set aside surfaces needing assessment. A professional evaluation may be needed to distinguish scratches, stains and coating issues. No particular method should be considered suitable when the manufacturer’s care guidance is unknown.
Clarify keys and access for vacant-flat handover
For move-in preparation or handover cleaning, access responsibility matters as much as the cleaning list. The key holder, the conditions for entry, passage through doors or common areas, and the availability of water and electricity can be agreed in advance. Remaining belongings, locked cupboards and areas not intended for handover can also be excluded clearly.
Agreeing how the key will be returned and which areas will be checked together after cleaning makes the handover easier to follow. This defines responsibilities without making assumptions about the condition of any particular flat.
A short before-and-after checklist
- Separate the requested areas from areas outside the scope in writing.
- Identify documents, personal items and electronics that should not be moved.
- Note questionable existing glass marks and flag surfaces needing assessment.
- Confirm keys, entry, water, electricity and accessible glass.
- Afterwards, review the agreed areas one by one: floors, bathroom, kitchen, common area or the space around work desks.

Can cleaning be done while files remain on desks?
In-place surface cleaning can be arranged, but moving, organising or destroying files is not part of cleaning. The reachable surfaces should be specified beforehand.
How should a scratch noticed after glass cleaning be handled?
The cause should not be assumed. Existing condition, access circumstances and the surface-care information should be considered together; distinguishing a scratch from a stain or coating issue may require professional assessment.
