Housekeeping in Linz
Housekeeping in Linz
A written schedule of services, the same registered team, and the price in writing after a free site visit.
02. What Housekeeping at Bling Bling covers
The scope of work in Linz at a glance — what the contract says and what actually happens on site.
Contact surfaces and technology in the room
Light switches, door handles, remote control, telephone, safe, kettle, minibar and wardrobe handles. The work is done with listed agents and their contact time; displays are worked barely damp and without alcohol.
Room status and reporting back
The status goes to reception as soon as the room is finished; lost property, damage and technical faults are reported and recorded the same day.
Floor pantry, floor areas and room check
Pantry and linen room tidied and stocked, the floor corridor and service door cleaned, spot checks in the room check with a written record.
Deep cleaning of rooms on a cycle
Behind the headboard and the furniture, mattress turned and vacuumed, slatted base, plinths, radiators, lampshades, picture frames and the window rebate. The room comes out of sale for a day for this and is handed back with a written record.
Blackout, curtain and window in the room
Curtain track and gliders, blind cassette, blackout fabric exclusively dry, balcony door including the rebate, and window glass on the inside. Blackout fabrics are not worked wet.
Air conditioning unit, fan coil and supply air valve
Filter mat removed, washed or exchanged as specified, fins, casing grille and condensate tray. A blocked filter is the most common cause of smell and poor performance in a room.
Houses in Linz are business hotels: arrival on Monday, departure on Thursday, empty at the weekend. That is an advantage, because deep cleaning of rooms and work on the floors can be planned into the quiet days rather than into a shoulder season. The iron-bearing fine dust from the industrial area shows up in the rooms on window sills, in the window rebate and on dark blackout fabrics — so we set a shorter cycle there for the rebate and the top edges of curtains.
03. Housekeeping: Bling Bling vs. the competition
Housekeeping is work on a cycle, and the cycle follows from room size, departure rate, bathroom fittings and the distances on the floor — not from a round number of rooms per member of staff. If the cycle is set too high, the time is lost in exactly the places guests look at: how the bed sits, the shower glass, the mirror, the corners of the bathroom. On top of that, work in guest rooms is work of trust — access to every room, other people's property, open suitcases — which is why the question of who goes in matters as much as the question of how fast. We calculate the cycle for each house, staff it from our permanently employed core team without subcontractors, and demonstrate the quality through room check spot checks rather than through assurances. In Linz, Bling Bling works with the same core team that knows the building.

06. 10 reasons for Housekeeping from Bling Bling
What a cleaning company has to be measured against — and which of it can be verified.
1In business since 2014
A family firm, not a franchise and not a broker — whoever quotes also carries out the work.
2Registered core team
Permanently employed and properly registered. No chain of subcontractors where nobody is liable at the end.
3The same people every time
The team knows the building, the access and the routines. Cover is arranged and named in advance.
4€3m public liability
Personal injury, property and financial loss covered; the certificate is attached to the quotation.
5RKI/VAH-listed agents, HACCP
Listed agents, trained staff, a cleaning and disinfection plan for each building.
6Multilingual
German, English and five further languages — the briefing gets through.
7No price without a site visit
A flat price over the phone rarely holds. After the visit the framework is set out in writing. A monthly flat rate applies to weekly recurring cleaning; one-off and deep cleans by effort - hourly, per square metre or flat - travel included.
8Dated proof
Record of each visit and photo documentation, reported monthly.
9Linen and inventory figures in writing
Counts, shortfalls, linen taken out of service and damage reports are documented — management sees consumption and loss without having to count again.
10Training on the house standard, in several languages
The standard is explained in the language in which it is understood — German, English and five others. A room standard that exists only on paper does not get worked.
07. Housekeeping in 4 more cities
Bling Bling works in Vienna, Graz, Linz, Salzburg and Klosterneuburg — with its own staff on site, not with subcontractors hired in.
08. Housekeeping for 5 typical situations
The same service looks different depending on the occasion — these five situations come up most often.
Sickness absence in the house's own team
We add staff at short notice, without the house having to lower the standard or take rooms out of sale.
The start of the season with a new floor team
It begins with training on the standard, on loading the trolley and on reporting status — after that the cycle runs.
Bathrooms and glass come up in guest reviews
When guests mention shower glass, joints and mirrors, it is almost always a question of cycle and method in the bathroom, and not a question of diligence.
Changing over to a new room standard
After refurbishment, a change of beds or a change of amenities, the routine is written up again, trained, and accompanied by room checks over the first few days.
A long-stay guest or an apartment in the house
A different rhythm applies there: a weekly change, an interim freshen-up, separate routines for the kitchen and the crockery. That is written up separately and trained separately.
★ Worth knowing
What is often misjudged about Housekeeping
Said up front, on the facts — not after the invoice.
The fan coil in the room is a cleaning item
In most houses there is a recirculation unit in the room, with a filter mat, a heat exchanger and a condensate tray. A blocked mat reduces the air flow, the exchanger clogs with dust, and biofilm forms in the damp condensate area — then the room smells musty when the unit is switched on, and no amount of surface cleaning in the room will change that. The hygiene requirements for air handling installations are described in VDI 6022, and the interval is specified by the manufacturer of the unit. We take the filter mat, the grille, the fins and the condensate tray into the cycle and record it with the date for each room; the ducting, the central plant and the refrigeration equipment remain with the house's engineering team.
A mattress is an inventory item with a service life
A person gives off moisture during the night, and it travels into the topper and the core of the mattress; without a washable protector and without airing it stays there, and the core dries slowly. That is why an encasement or protector runs in the linen circuit, the mattress is rotated or turned on a cycle — with many pocket-sprung models only rotated, because they have a defined sleeping side — and vacuumed with a fine filter rather than beaten, because beating puts the dust into the room. Stains, sagged areas and damaged covers are reported with the room number, the date and a photograph: when to replace is an investment decision for the house, and that needs evidence rather than impressions.
Blackout fabric and blinds must not get wet
Blackout material is a woven fabric with a backing coating of acrylic or foam, and it is precisely that layer which makes it light-tight. Moisture, rubbing and alkaline agents attack it: the fabric becomes patchy, the layer splits open along the folds, and after that the guest sees points of light in a darkened room — damage that cannot be recovered and means replacing the whole width. The work is done dry: with low suction and a brush nozzle from top to bottom, track, gliders and blind cassette dusted, marks treated individually with little moisture and dried afterwards. Laundering fabrics of this kind runs through the supplier according to the care label and not through the floor team.

●. Frequently asked questions about Housekeeping in Linz
What does Housekeeping cost?
There is no price before the site visit, and a figure given over the phone rarely holds. We look at surfaces, access and time windows, and then the cost framework is set out in writing with a schedule of services. What changes the price: the area, the frequency, the condition at handover and the time of day the work is done. Two rules apply everywhere: a monthly flat rate is only offered for recurring cleaning at least once a week, including stairwells. One-off jobs, first cleans and deep cleans are billed by effort - depending on the service by the hour at a higher rate, by square metre or as a flat price - and travel time there and back counts.
Is the site visit really free?
Yes, free of charge and without obligation. It is the only way to quote seriously, so we treat it as part of the offer, not as a service to be paid for.
Does the same person come every time?
Yes. The team is permanently employed and knows the building, the access arrangements and the routines. Cover is arranged in advance and named, and it works from the building log, not from a verbal handover.
Is your staff properly registered?
All of them, with social insurance. No chain of subcontractors in which nobody is liable at the end. Proof is provided on request.
What insurance is in place?
Public liability of €3m, covering personal injury, property damage and financial loss. The certificate is attached to the quotation.
What happens if something is not right?
It is put right within 48 hours, in writing, at no extra cost. Measured against the schedule of services and a joint inspection, not against an impression.
Can you work outside business hours?
Yes — early, late, at weekends or on public holidays. In occupied buildings, daytime cleaning in sections is often the better option, because the client sees the work and can raise anything immediately.
Do I have to provide materials or a room?
Materials and equipment we bring. What helps is a lockable store with a slop sink, space for the trolley and somewhere for pads to dry — damp pads in a closed bag are the most common source of smell in an otherwise clean building.
What notice period applies?
The contract is terminable monthly. There is no minimum term and no automatic extension by the year.
Do you also work in English?
Yes — German, English and five further languages. The briefing gets through, which matters more on site than it sounds.
Which documents do I get?
A schedule of services with frequencies, a dated record of each visit, photo documentation before and after, and a monthly report.
How quickly can you start?
Usually within a few working days of the quotation being accepted. Short-notice jobs are most readily possible in Vienna, because travel times within a district are short.
