How we quote
The walkthrough writes the price
We do not price a building we have not walked. An hour on site tells us what a floor plan cannot: where the traffic goes, which restrooms take the load, what the floors need and when the building is actually empty.
What we measure
Six things that decide the number
Square footage by area
Cleanable square footage, not the lease number. Open warehouse floor and a dense office suite take very different work per square foot.
Fixture counts
Toilets, urinals, sinks, dispensers, showers. Restrooms drive more labor than any other space in most buildings.
Floor types
VCT, sealed or polished concrete, epoxy, tile, carpet. Each one has its own routine care and its own restoration cycle.
Hours and access
When the building is empty, how crews get in, whether there is a dock, a freight elevator or a badge system.
Frequency
Nightly, a few nights a week, weekly. Frequency changes the crew plan more than any other single choice.
Special conditions
Clinical areas, food handling, production dust, public traffic, security rules. These become their own lines on the scope.
What you get
Everything in writing, before anything starts
- A scope of work listing every task by area and frequency
- The products and equipment named for each surface
- Service windows, so you know when crews are in the building
- The crew plan for your building and hours
- The price that follows from the scope, with nothing bundled in to pad it
- The inspection plan: who walks the building, how often, and what you receive
Questions
Questions about quoting
Why not quote from square footage over the phone?
Because two buildings with the same square footage can need very different work. A phone number based on square footage alone is either padded to be safe or too low to hold, and both end badly. The walkthrough takes under an hour.
What do I get after the walkthrough?
A written scope of work for your building: every task by area and frequency, the products and equipment named, the service windows, the crew plan, and the price that follows from it.
Do you publish prices on the website?
No. Prices follow the scope, and the scope follows the building. You get the number in writing after the walkthrough, with the detail behind it.
Can we start with part of the building?
Yes. Some buildings start with restrooms and common areas, then add floors, glass or high dusting once the standard is set. The scope is written for what you want now and updated in writing when it changes.
What if our needs change after we start?
Tell the office. The scope is a working document: a new tenant, a change of hours or a new floor finish all change the work, and any change is agreed in writing before the crew works to it.
