Apartment block cleaning in Kohoutovice

Cleaning a prefab block in Kohoutovice is mostly about lifts, corridors and landing windows. The estate sits on hills above the old village and is surrounded by forest, which also shapes how we handle entrances in winter. We work for owners’ associations and housing cooperatives.

Two faces of Kohoutovice

Kohoutovice has two sides. Lower down is the original village of Kohoutovice; above it, on the hills, stands the prefab estate. The district also includes houses in the Pisárky area on the northern slope of Antonína Procházky and Libušino údolí streets, where there are a few prefab blocks as well. Forest runs all the way round the built-up area, and the ground rises gently from the east. The Kohoutovický potok stream flows through the district, and the local water tower stands above the houses.

We clean apartment buildings in Kohoutovice, and most of the work here is in prefab blocks. For cleaning, that means:

  • Lifts and stairwells: lift cars can be cleaned more often than the stairs, because that is where most people pass through.
  • Landing windows: corridors in prefab blocks have a lot of windows, and they make a visible difference to how the building looks. We wash them including the sills; we do not wash outside panes in frost, so we plan them mainly for spring and autumn.
  • Entrances and surroundings: on an estate ringed by forest, more leaves and mud get carried inside.
  • Cellars and shared rooms: spaces that are easily forgotten, which is why we list them in the written contract.

What we do for buildings in Kohoutovice

Winter on an estate above the village

The estate lies higher than the old village, and paths between the blocks and up to the entrances cross uneven ground. Before the season we go through with the committee which areas belong to the building and which are looked after by the district. We agree which ones we will keep clear, and winter maintenance is arranged under a contract for the whole winter.

When the building changes

Prefab blocks are gradually being upgraded: facades are insulated, entrances and windows replaced. Once such work is finished, what needs doing and how often may change as well. New front doors, a new porch or added floors change the area we look after, so we revise the scope in the contract together.

A big building with many residents

Around 12,000 people live in Kohoutovice. In a large prefab block, feedback about cleaning comes from many residents at once. You have one contact person at our company to whom the committee passes everything, so nobody has to explain the same thing to several people. At the start we can put up a notice in the entrances saying that a new company is cleaning the building, so residents know they can reach us through the committee of their owners’ association (SVJ).

Where we travel from

Our base is on Hvozdecká street in Bystrc, and we arrange the visit to your Kohoutovice building around your availability. The consultation is free. Nearby we also work in Jundrov, Žebětín, Bystrc and Bohunice. For your building in Kohoutovice, send us a no-obligation request.

What we look out for in Kohoutovice

  • An estate above its surroundings

    Kohoutovice lies around 330 metres above sea level, and the estate stands on hills above the original village. The terrain is uneven and some buildings are reached by sloping paths, which means more work with snow in winter than on flat ground.

  • Forest up to the doorstep

    Woods surround Kohoutovice on every side. In autumn, when leaves get carried into the entrances, we can agree with the committee to clean the entrances and the area around the building more often.

  • Long corridors and hard floors

    Prefab blocks have corridors, entrance halls and cellar areas with tiles or linoleum. Besides regular cleaning, we can scrub them now and then with our own scrubber-dryer.

Cleaning in Kohoutovice: frequently asked questions

Is Kohoutovice part of the area where you provide winter maintenance?

Yes. Kohoutovice is part of the area around Bystrc where we provide winter maintenance. On the estate above the village we agree with the committee which entrances, steps and paths on the building’s land we will keep clear.

If our Kohoutovice block is being insulated or altered, can the cleaning contract change too?

Yes. When a building gets new insulation, new entrances or extra floors, we go through the scope again with the committee once the work is finished. We then update the contract so that it matches the building as it is now.

Is machine scrubbing of corridors worth it in a Kohoutovice prefab block?

For entrance halls and corridors with tiles or linoleum it can pay off between regular cleans. Whether it makes sense for your building is something we judge during the visit; you can also order it as a one-off.
