Our Work
A clinic, an arena, a dealership showroom and a school corridor are four completely different problems that happen to share a word. Here is what each one actually involves, and what we have learned doing them.
Offices and multi-tenant buildings
The largest share of what we do, and the work where the frequency question matters most.
In multi-tenant buildings the complication is that the property manager buys the service and the tenants judge it. So the scope covers common areas to a visible standard, tenant suites to whatever each lease says, and a day porter where the lobby takes enough traffic to need one during hours. Nightly janitorial is the core.
Healthcare
Clinics, dental practices, dialysis, surgery centers and senior living. This is the work with the least room for interpretation: a written protocol per room type, products used for the length of time their label requires, color-coded cloths so nothing crosses from a restroom to an exam table, and a log the practice can hand to a surveyor.
It is also the work where crew stability matters most. A clinic does not want to explain which room is the procedure room to somebody new every month. See disinfection and healthcare cleaning.
Schools and universities
Corridors, classrooms, gyms, cafeterias and the restroom load of several hundred people arriving at once. The pattern is heavy daily cleaning during term and the deep work in the breaks — stripping and refinishing corridors over summer, carpets over the winter break, glass while the building is empty.
University venues add event work on top: a graduation, a game, a conference, each with a turnaround measured in hours.
Arenas, coliseums and event venues
Our largest crews and the tightest deadlines. Restrooms start first and finish last, because that is where the next event gets judged.
Alongside the cleaning there is floor-conversion labor: hockey boards out and basketball floor down over the ice deck, rodeo dirt in and out, convention-floor changeovers between shows. See arena and event turnover.
Auto dealerships
A showroom is a retail floor with a service department attached, and the two halves want opposite things. The showroom needs glass, floors and a spotless customer restroom, usually with the floor refinished overnight between a Saturday close and a Monday open. The service lane needs degreasing, and the salt and rubber that come in on every vehicle taken back off the floor.
Glass matters more here than almost anywhere: the building is a display case, and window cleaning is often weekly on the front elevation alone.
Apartments and housing
Two jobs that get confused with each other. Unit turns are urgent, unpredictable and tied to a lease date that will not move. Common areas — corridors, lobbies, laundry, fitness rooms, trash rooms — are predictable, recurring, and the half most communities underbuy. A prospect forms an opinion in the hallway, not in the model unit.
We also clean private houses on a regular schedule, with the same employees and the same insurance as the commercial side.
Industrial, warehouse and government
Large floor areas, hard floors that want scrubbing rather than finishing, offices attached to plant, and restrooms taking shift-change loads. Government buildings add public counters and the traffic that comes with them, plus access and security arrangements that have to be written into the scope rather than worked out on the night.
Post-construction and one-off projects
New builds, tenant fit-outs and renovations, where the job is getting a building from "substantially complete" to "ready" against a handover date. Three phases, and the one everybody skips — running the air system for two days before the final clean — is the difference between a clean building and a film of drywall dust on every desk by Monday. See post-construction clean.
