Commercial work runs on schedules, documentation, and insurance certificates. We invoice through management companies, work outside business hours where needed, and provide before and after documentation for every visit.
Signs you need commercial
- Visible algae or grime on entryways, sidewalks, or building facades affecting curb appeal
- Dumpster pad staining or odor buildup
- Complaints from residents, tenants, or customers about the property's appearance
- An HOA or management company preparing for an annual inspection or board walkthrough
- No documented cleaning schedule currently in place for common areas
What is included
- HOA common areas, amenity buildings, pools, and courts
- Retail and office building exteriors
- Sidewalks, entryways, and dumpster pads
- Scheduled annual and semiannual contracts
- Certificate of insurance provided; after-hours scheduling available
How it works
- 1 Walk the property with the manager or board to scope all surfaces and access points
- 2 Provide a written proposal broken out by area, with a recommended schedule
- 3 Schedule work around business hours, resident notice requirements, or amenity usage
- 4 Complete the work with before/after photo documentation for records
- 5 Confirm the next scheduled visit if the property is on a recurring contract
Understanding the problem
What is actually happening — and why the method matters
Commercial work differs from residential mainly in scale and variety within a single site: a single property visit might combine a stucco office facade, concrete walkways, a parking structure, and a dumpster pad — each needing a different method, in the same visit, coordinated around tenants, residents, or business hours rather than an empty house.
Documentation and liability matter more here too. Certificates of insurance, dated before/after photos, and scheduled contracts rather than one-off jobs are standard practice, because HOA boards and property managers need to justify recurring spend and prove work was actually completed to owners, boards, or residents who are not present for the job.
Scheduling logistics follow the property type: retail and office work is usually done before opening or after closing to avoid disrupting customers or employees, while HOA common-area work is scheduled around resident notice periods and amenity usage — for example, not restricting pool-deck access during peak summer weekends.
Common questions
Questions about commercial
Do you work with property management companies?
Yes. We can invoice the management company directly and coordinate scheduling and resident notice.
Can you work outside business hours?
Yes. Retail and office work is frequently done early morning or overnight.
Do you carry commercial insurance?
Yes, and we provide a certificate of insurance naming the property as additional insured on request.
How much does commercial cleaning cost?
Commercial pricing depends on square footage, surface types, and site access, so every proposal is scoped individually rather than quoted off a flat rate.
How often do commercial properties need cleaning?
Most HOA and commercial contracts run annual or semiannual. High-visibility entrances, pools, and amenity buildings often go on a more frequent schedule.
How far in advance do we need to schedule commercial work?
For one-time jobs, usually within a week or two. For annual or semiannual contracts, we recommend locking in the schedule at the start of the season.
Can you work around tenants or residents without disrupting them?
Yes. Early morning, evening, and overnight scheduling is common for occupied commercial and residential properties specifically to minimize disruption.
Do you provide before/after documentation for HOA board meetings?
Yes. We can supply dated photos of completed work, which boards commonly request to justify the expense to residents.
Can you bid on a multi-property portfolio for a management company?
Yes. We can scope multiple properties under one proposal and coordinate a rotating schedule across a portfolio.
What is included in a certificate of insurance?
It names the property or management company as an additional insured for the duration of the work, which is the standard documentation most commercial contracts and HOA vendor policies require.
