Facilities partner in the spotlight: De Zeeuw Cleaning Service
De Zeeuw Schoonmaakservice is the cleaning company run by Robbert de Zeeuw from Berltsum. After gaining many years’ experience in the sector, he set up his own business five years ago. The company operates mainly in North-West Friesland and carries out a wide range of cleaning services for businesses and private individuals.
Our partnership with NIFA has now been going for more than ten years. Robbert first came to NIFA through his previous employer to carry out glass and façade cleaning. When he set up his own business, he continued with this work and has since been responsible for, amongst other things, the weekly office cleaning.
What makes the job so enjoyable? The variety. From window cleaning and office maintenance to specialist cleaning tasks. One special tradition has become the annual cleaning of the lubricant production area – a unique task that comes round every year.
In addition to the weekly cleaning, De Zeeuw Schoonmaakservice carries out an annual deep clean of various parts of the premises. This includes scrubbing the floors and re-waxing them. According to Robbert, this remains one of the best moments: “The floors look as good as new again.”
From NIFA
For NIFA, a clean and well-maintained building is more than just a calling card. It contributes to a pleasant, safe and professional working and production environment. That is why we have our premises thoroughly cleaned every year. This involves paying particular attention to the offices, floors, glasswork and various business premises, amongst other things.
It is no coincidence that we have been working with De Zeeuw Schoonmaakservice for many years. If we were to describe our partnership in three words, they would be: reliability, direct communication and commitment. We particularly appreciate the open communication, the fact that they honour their commitments, and the way they actively contribute ideas.
Moreover, this long-term partnership fits in well with the way in which NIFA aims to work with other suppliers and partners. We believe in sustainable relationships in which trust is built up and both parties get to know each other better and better over the years.
Finally, we would like to thank Robbert and his team for their dedication, professionalism and flexibility. Thank you for another successful clean and for the pleasant collaboration.
One last cleaning tip from Robbert
The most important cleaning tip is surprisingly simple: keep on top of your cleaning on a regular basis. This will help you avoid any surprises and ensure that cleaning remains organised and manageable.
