When cleaning starts in an apartment building, the argument is rarely about cloths or detergents; it is about who has to walk down the wet staircase. For an address in Üçgen, part of Muratpaşa, the scope of a job includes not only how well the work is done but also how daily life continues while it is being done. At CGS Temizlik the scope is discussed according to the address, access and what you actually want; this guide is here so you come to that conversation prepared.
Separating the job you actually need
Home cleaning covers kitchen, bathroom and living areas; empty flat cleaning covers cupboard interiors, bathroom, kitchen and floors before a move. After construction, coarse debris and fine cleaning are two different jobs. Apartment and site work covers stairs, landings and entrances, while villa cleaning follows floors, rooms and stairs in order. Upholstery washing starts with the fabric label; window cleaning is limited to reachable glass. In offices, electronics and documents are left untouched.
Keeping the entrance and stairs usable
In some buildings the space between the front door and the lift is narrow, with a single line of passage; this is not true of every building, but if it is true of yours the work order is built around it. Workable approaches: wetting one half of each step and leaving the other half dry, finishing floor by floor from top down, marking the wet section with a warning sign, and leaving busy hours free. A wet entrance mat is not put back immediately; letting it dry aside reduces both slipping and re-soiling. In building work this arrangement is discussed as its own topic: apartment and site cleaning.
Planning the order in a multi-storey home
For a duplex or a villa, two sequences are possible. The first starts upstairs and moves down: dust and water travel downward anyway, so the lower floor is finished last and the staircase is dried once. The second finishes the lower floor first so residents can use it; in that case the staircase is handled twice. Which one suits you depends on who stays home during the work, whether there are children or elderly users, and where water can be drawn. If you want glass done the same day, leaving it until after general cleaning keeps frames and sills clean; see villa cleaning details as well as window cleaning. If you notice scratches, dullness or marks on a surface, do not try to classify them with a home test; telling apart coating, scratch and stain requires assessment on site. Where the manufacturer's care instructions are unknown, no method can be assumed suitable in advance.
Agreeing common area limits with building management
Work inside a flat and work in shared areas are separate requests. Points to settle with management: which floors and landings are included, whether the lift cabin is in scope, who handles the entrance glass and door handles, where water and power come from, where waste is left, and who holds the key or door code. Written clarity here prevents disputes on the day.
Checkpoints before and after
- Before: parking and loading space, permission to use the lift, water and power access, fragile items put away, pets arranged.
- Before: report loose steps, broken edges or faulty lighting on the stairs.
- After: confirm floors are dry, the mat is back, doors are locked and waste is at the agreed point.
Is the building closed off while the stairs are cleaned?
Usually not; work moves floor by floor with wet sections marked. Share your building's passage layout beforehand and the order is planned around it.
Can shared areas and my flat be done in the same visit?
You can request it; it becomes clear once scope and access are discussed. Call 0537 4450191. CGS Temizlik head office: Sütçüler Mahallesi 15 Temmuz Şehitler Cd No109/D Kepez/Antalya.
