Although they are commercial properties, multifamily facilities fall into a unique category with regard to upkeep. Unlike most commercial properties for business use, these properties are occupied continuously. Multifamily maintenance requires a wider range of skills and resident diplomacy, whether a high-rise apartment building, sprawling garden style community, condominiums, or townhouse community.

Multifamily properties typically have more paying tenants to keep satisfied. The demands on common areas and amenities also tend to be higher. The lifestyles of the occupants tend to follow less rigid patterns of behavior, whereas business tenants more closely follow a uniform code of behavior.

Working with a property services company that has a cooperative team across multiple disciplines will save busy property managers time, money, and frustration. Imagine the convenience of contacting just one point-person for nearly all property needs such as landscaping, janitorial, power washing, garbage area cleanup, trash chute repair, virus disinfecting, ADA compliance, and parking garage sweeping.

General maintenance is the first concern for servicing multifamily properties. As property occupants are staying home more and paying attention to sanitizing and cleaning procedures these days, a more professional standard of cleaning is demanded. Janitorial services are less behind-the-scenes than they may have been in the past.

Pristine common areas are the first key to making tenants happy. Indoor cleaning may require extra attention on frequent touch point and high traffic areas. Community rooms and fitness centers require additional sanitization. Expert carpet cleaning and floor care can extend the life of your asset. Day porter services also provide a higher level of concierge service.

Common areas are the most visible and important to keep clean. Lobbies, entryways, elevators, stairwells, parking garages, and walkways that are not maintained can become eyesores and liability hazards. A company that properly repairs and maintains trash chutes and garbage collection areas can reduce odors, disease, and safety hazards from properties.

Professional landscaping provides a great first impression for prospective residents and visitors and can add value. Exterior maintenance also covers a lot of ground and includes services such as hard surface steam cleaning, parking lot sweeping, and underground parking maintenance, to name a few. Although these areas may be lower profile, they are equally important to maintain.

Perimeter inspections, aerial drone video inspections, hauling large illegally dumped items, graffiti removal, alleyway cleanup, and handyman services should also be offered by a full-service company.

Hiring a good team that recognizes preventative maintenance issues is also valuable. The more skills a facility services team brings, the more qualified they are to identify and report potential problems. They can prevent small abnormalities from escalating into large, full-blown problems that create headaches and unwanted expenses.

This is the type of depth you should look for when hiring a company for multifamily maintenance. A strong team can save property managers considerable time and expense in the long run. Your property will provide an enhanced living experience and tenants will be routinely happier.

It’s officially summertime, and while some are focused on getting their bodies in shape, they may be neglecting their property. But there’s no reason why your property shouldn’t be looking its best during this season, and Omnia Pacific Construction is here to help.

From landscaping to pressure washing to trash disposal, our Property Pros will keep your building looking fresh as the weather heats up.

Trash Maintenance

An often-overlooked aspect of property ownership is trash disposal. From trash chutes to dumpsters and waste bins, unclean disposal systems contain harmful bacteria, unpleasant odors, and unsightly pests. Worse yet is a dirty dumpster left unattended in the heat for long stretches. Fortunately, Omnia can give your waste disposal system a thorough cleaning, resulting in a fresh, attractive perspective from every angle – keeping it Omnia clean all summer long.

Pressure Washing

Over time, dirt, grime, mold, mildew, and other unsightly contaminants accumulate on various surfaces, including sidewalks, driveways, decks and patios. These not only detract from the overall appearance of your property but can also pose safety hazards. Omnia uses state-of-the-art high-pressure washing and steam cleaning equipment to effectively remove stubborn stains, restore surfaces to their original condition, and enhance curb appeal. Pressure washing also helps extend the lifespan of outdoor surfaces by eliminating corrosive substances and preventing long-term damage. By entrusting Omnia with pressure washing, you can enjoy a cleaner, safer, and more inviting outdoor environment that leaves a lasting, fresh smelling, and positive impression on tenants, visitors and potential buyers.

Landscaping

Spring may be over, but weeds and overgrown vegetation never take a break. Our Landscaping Experts can ensure your property is always in season. From planting colorful flowers and ornamental shrubs to installing sustainable irrigation systems and creating inviting outdoor seating areas, Omnia can transform your landscaping into a beautiful and welcoming environment. Additionally, summer’s warm weather is the right time to show off your outdoor space, so contact the Property Pros today to calendar your upgrades before the dog days of August are here!

EXTERIOR SERVICES

People make first impressions, and so do places. This is why properly maintaining the exterior of your building is so critical. Visitors form an impression long before they step inside. Is it clean? Is there paint chipping away? Is the landscaping up to date? Is the parking lot well lit? Are there potholes?

All these elements should be considered before introducing a potential new tenant to your property.

Cigarette butts, glass, trash bags, and other debris aren’t just eye sores — they’re hazards that can cost you a tenant in the long run. Omnia can help prevent this from becoming an issue with our parking lot sweeping services. We don’t just make your parking lot feel safer, we’ll make it more appealing. Additionally, Omnia can haul illegal dumping from your property.

Other headaches like damaged facia from sign removal, old signage, vandalism, and neglected landscaping can further damage your property’s image and value. Omnia’s experienced team can handle these problems and others. From using nutrient-rich mulch in landscaping to repairing damaged areas surrounding the building, we’ll have your property looking its best in no time.

INTERIOR SERVICES

Once potential tenants are inside, the real sales pitch begins. Having a clean space to showcase can make or break a deal. Omnia can help smooth the transition from one tenant to the next through our vacancy prep services. These services include cleaning the interior and exterior of your vacancy, shelling out the space, and smoking out the windows to effectively showcase your property.

After a new tenant has signed on, keeping them happy is paramount. An attentive area manager can do just that. Omnia’s experts have a keen eye for floor care, maintenance, and handyman services. Both tenants and customers will feel at ease knowing that your property is well maintained and monitored.

Getting your property back to pre-pandemic levels can feel like a major challenge. With help from Omnia, you can make your property appeal to new tenants while retaining your current ones.
