Professional facade cleaning.

Before guests check in, they see the facade. That is why first impressions are crucial for hotels located in the city center, where weather, traffic and air pollution leave their mark on the buildings.

Ahead of Constitution Day last year, five Scandic hotels in Bergen received a thorough refresh. Ability carried out full facade cleaning, so the hotels appeared clean, inviting and ready for a busy season.

The assignment covered Scandic Ørnen, Scandic Torget, Scandic Byparken, Scandic Bergen City and Scandic Neptun. The goal was simple: ensure that both guests and passers-by encounter a hotel that looks just as good on the outside as on the inside.

At Ability, we have extensive experience with cleaning, property maintenance and Facility Management for hotels, commercial buildings, housing cooperatives and public organizations. When assignments demand speed and precision, it is essential to have the right expertise — and the right team.

"We know how important first impressions are for hotels. Through professionally executed temporary work, we show that we are a reliable partner — even when time is short and standards are high." — Morten Wergeland, Operations Manager for Property Services at Ability FM.

After the work was completed, the difference was clear. The facades appeared brighter and cleaner, the windows let in more light, and the entrances received a lift. The feedback from the client was equally positive:

"The hotel hasn't been this clean since it was built in 2014!" — Rune Bjerk, Chief Engineer Cluster Bergen at Scandic Hotels.

For us at Ability, assignments like these are not just about a single delivery. They are about building long-term partnerships. Once we are on site, many clients see that we can also contribute with additional services such as daily cleaning, Facility Management, outdoor area maintenance, and temporary and periodic cleaning.

Many of our most satisfied clients use us precisely because we can deliver multiple services under one roof.

Algae, moss, dust and pollution build up over time. With professional facade cleaning, you can both improve first impressions and help extend the lifespan of the building.
