How to Tell If a Public Space is Well Maintained

31 October 2019

Public spaces are so important to the wellbeing of a local community.

Therefore, these valuable areas must be maintained regularly, by professional contractors like Sydney Sweep and Scrub.

This ensures that your concrete surfaces are in sparkling condition, and the rest of your area is pristine.

A well-maintained space will attract residents. This increases socialisation, and the overall community feel of your area.

So how can you tell if a public space is well maintained?

There’s No Vandalism

Vandalism begets vandalism, so a space that is regularly cleaned of any graffiti or damage will be less likely to attract vandalism.

On the other hand, an already vandalised public area will be more likely to attract more damage.

A space that is regularly swept and scrubbed will not have any visible graffiti.

It Looks Neat

A well maintained public space simply looks neater.

That means the concrete surfaces are clean, without any stains or marks. The surrounding areas are clear of debris and well maintained.

Furthermore, any grass or foliage around the area will be neatly trimmed regularly.

There’s No Clutter

A well-maintained space will be free of clutter.

For instance, plastic and glass waste will be regularly removed by a cleaning contractor. Larger items that may be left by illegal dumpers will also be discarded promptly.

This is where a professional waste removal company will come into the picture. An organisation contracted by the council to clean up makes it far easier to maintain a space like this.

The public will not want to utilise a space cluttered with various types of rubbish.

There’s No Odour

An unclean public area will likely smell unclean.

This is often due to sitting water, liquid stains, discarded rubbish and food waste, as well as animal waste.

A smelly space is not somewhere people will want to spend their time relaxing. As a result, this prevents you from holding events, encouraging outdoor activities and social gatherings for residents.

Therefore, it’s so important that your public space is cleaned regularly by a sweep and scrub company.

Sydney Sweep and Scrub will clean your concrete surfaces thoroughly, removing stains and sitting water. We use a combination of experience and technology to get the best result.

This leaves your space looking and smelling great.
