⭐ No Hesitation, Just Action!⚡
This month, we’re proud to celebrate Erika (Rafalu Eriakha), our latest Team Excellence Award recipient!

Erika works at 111 Peter Street in downtown Toronto and has built a quiet rep for doing the little things that make a huge difference:

✔ Notices and fixes what others might miss
✔ Helps tenants and teammates without skipping a beat
✔ Steps up for extra shifts without being asked
✔ Brings professionalism, kindness, and a calm, can-do attitude — every single day

💬 One teammate said it best:
"Erika is respectful, dependable, and always does a good job."

🏢 111 Peter Street is managed by Crown Property Management Inc., and it stays polished thanks to stars like Erika!

🪣Mop That Up!
Still seeing streaky, sticky, or dull floors after mopping?
You're probably making one of these common mistakes 👇

✔️ Skipping the vacuum — dirt just gets smeared around or stuck
✔️ Using too much water — causes bubbling, peeling, and mould
✔️ Using too much product — leaves sticky, dirt-attracting residue
✔️ Using worn-out tools — old gear spreads grime, not shine
✔️ Skipping the rinse — dulls your finish and leaves dirt behind

💡 Innovation’s Pro Tip
On floors, less is more.
Fewer products. Less water. Better results.
It’s easier on your floors — and your product spending.

🌍 Healthy Buildings. Personal Actions. Healthier Planet.

At Innovation Building Maintenance, we believe what we clean — and how we clean — matters more than ever.

From zero-waste site targets to smart sensors and eco-certified products, we’re using our everyday work to help make a positive impact on people and the planet. 🌱💧🏢

This Earth Day, we’re asking ourselves one simple question:
"What'swe'rewe're one habit change you’ll make this week to help protect our shared future?"

Here are 6 simple ones to try:

🔋 Switch to rechargeable batteries
☕ Carry a reusable mug + water bottle + use them every time
🌿 Start composting and/or reduce single-use, disposable items
🚲 Walk, bike, or take transit at least once weekly
🧼 Switch to refillable cleaning and personal care products
🛒 Shop local to cut shipping waste and support your community

💬 Drop your Earth Day actions in the comments + tag someone who inspires you to live greener!

🧦 What do colourful socks have to do with inclusion? More than you think.

You don’t usually catch our Innovation Building Maintenance team out of their safety shoes. But, March 21, we switched to mismatched socks to spark a conversation that matters.

👷‍♀️ Inspired by World Down Syndrome Day, we joined the global movement to celebrate differences through a simple, visible gesture.

💬 What’s one way you support equity, kindness, or inclusion in your everyday life?
👇 Share it in the comments — and tag a person, company, or organization who inspires you.

P.S. We’re not stopping here. We’re proud to support the Halton Down Syndrome Association and look forward to joining their Walk for Awareness again this June.

👉 Follow us for more ways we’re putting purpose into action — on and off our growing number of job sites.

Because different isn’t less—it’s extraordinary.

💛 On International Women's Day 2025, we are cheering for the women who show up, stand up, and lift others up — every day.💛

👩‍👧 Mothers, grandmothers, and aunts shaping the next generation.
👩‍🏫 Educators and caregivers pouring their knowledge into others.
💼 Workers, entrepreneurs, and leaders breaking barriers.
🤝 Mentors, friends, and neighbours offering a hand.

But, starting today let’s not stop at celebrating. Women are still:
🚨 Underpaid for the same work.
🚨 Judged more than supported.
🚨 Expected to do more with less.

💡 It is time to take collective action and accountability. Support women-led businesses. Speak up against persistent bias. Amplify women’s voices.

💬 Tag a woman who has shaped your life and tell us how. Let's fill social media with appreciation this weekend.👇

Ever wonder what it takes to keep a three-tower corporate complex spotless daily? 🤔

At Manulife Corporate Park, Innovation Building Maintenance is now hard at work — before the first coffee is poured and long after the last meeting ends — ensuring every office, lobby, and shared space stays fresh, hygienic, and welcoming.

Here are three key things that go into every single day:
✅ Quality Assurance checks to ensure pristine workspaces.
✅ High-touch point sanitization (think elevator panels, doorknobs, desks.)
✅ Eco-friendly cleaning solutions that are tough on dirt but safe for tenants and visitors.

🤝Thank you to JLL Canada and all our own team members for helping make this new janitorial services partnership possible.

Happy Halloween from Team Innovation 🧙‍♀️ Whether you're working a costume, brewing tasty surprises, or just enjoying the unexpectedly warm weather on this side of North America, we wish you all a safe, shiny, and spooktacular day! 🌟

👻✨ You Can Ghost These Cleaning Habits for Good! 🎃🧹
Before we dive into the year-end holidays, let's clear up anything that could haunt your home, office, or condo complex, like...

1. 🧴 Excessive Chemical or Product Use:
Swap out harsh chemicals for eco-friendly, multi-purpose cleaners. Your space can sparkle without chemical overload!

2. 🔍 Ignoring "Hidden" Surfaces:
Don't let dust bunnies take up residence! Make sure your cleaning routine includes overlooked areas like ceiling fans, vents, door frames behind furniture, and along baseboards.

3. 📅 Skipping Regular Deep Cleans:
Keep your space inviting and maintain your investments by scheduling deep cleans. Remember those carpets and rugs, upholstery, and windows — they need regular TLC too!

4. 🧽 Not Maintaining Your Tools:
Ensure your mops, cloths, and vacuum are clean before you start! Dirty tools just spread more dirt. Keep them fresh for the best results!

👻 Don't let these cleaning issues haunt you—make the change for a fresher, cleaner space today! We're always ready to help businesses, condo buildings, and everyone who follows us here get it done ✔️
