Commercial Building Cleaning Services
Our commercial building cleaning services cover lobbies, corridors, stairwells, shared washrooms, elevators and building exteriors, on a daily, weekly or monthly schedule set by how the building is used. A walkthrough comes first, and a written quote follows within 1 business day.

Overview
Common areas, kept in order
Wear shows in shared spaces first. We start with the lobby, corridors and washrooms that every tenant and visitor uses, then add entrances, courtyards and parkade landings. Our guide explains how to read lobby, washroom and floor task lines on a written plan. Tenant suites stay closed unless that tenant books an after-hours pass with their own fob and alarm. If you are weighing a standing rotation against booking cleans as needed, see when a building program beats one-off cleans.
Everest is CIMS certified, licensed, insured and covered by WorkSafeBC, and crews are background-checked. Property managers can check the liability certificate and clearance letter to file before keys. A free site assessment lets us walk the building before we price it. Our own crews also handle window and glass cleaning, ride-on scrubber work and exterior washing, so one quote can cover all three. Strata councils and property managers can read how strata cleaning is scoped. Buildings in Vancouver are covered by our commercial cleaning in Vancouver team, with the wider Lower Mainland served from New Westminster. For Burnaby towers and strata common areas, see what to compare before you hire in Burnaby.

How it works
How a building quote works
-
Step 1: Tell us about your building
Send the address, floors, washroom count and the hours the lobby is busiest.
-
Step 2: We review your needs
We match your details to visit frequency and shift, then send a written quote within 1 business day.
-
Step 3: Walk the building
A supervisor walks the building with the property manager and agrees common-area scope and access. The site assessment is free.
-
Step 4: Approve your written plan
A written plan lists each area, how often it is cleaned and the price. You approve it before the first visit.
Winter
Wet-season floor care for lobbies
From October to March, rain and grit travel through the entrance and into the lobby. We clean entrance mats, remove salt stains from carpet and run ride-on scrubbers over hard floors in lobbies and stairwells, on the visits you set.
Many building contracts roll over at year end. If yours does, ask for a second quote in the fall so a written plan is in hand before the notice date. Put scope, frequency and exit clauses to put in writing before you sign beside that calendar. When the account covers more than one address, see Vancouver cleaning contract language for one site vs many. Our guides cover winter floor care and rainy-season entrance care.

Commercial building cleaning questions
Quick answers before you book a walkthrough.
Common areas are on the building quote. Suites are cleaned only when a tenant books their own after-hours pass, using their own fob and alarm code. That keeps the landlord's visit focused on shared spaces and leaves each tenant in control of their own suite.
Lobby glass, directory mats, elevators, corridor landings, stairwells, shared washrooms and the parkade landing. Trash and recycling rooms count too. Your written quote lists each area by name, so the walkthrough settles anything that sits on the boundary.
Price depends on floor area, the number of floors and washrooms, visit frequency and whether exterior work is included. Send those details and a written quote follows within 1 business day, or book a free site assessment first. See how to choose a commercial cleaning company for what to compare, and the Vancouver janitorial bid questions to ask before you sign.
Most buildings clean the lobby, washrooms and trash daily, floors and glass weekly, and detail work monthly. Foot traffic sets the real number, and a busy lobby may need a day porter between visits. What commercial cleaning includes shows a typical split.
Yes. Crews pressure wash entryways, sidewalks, courtyards and parking lots, and clean storefront and entrance glass. Parkade landings are cleaned with the interior scope. Exterior work is listed on its own line of the quote, so you can see what it adds.
Yes. Property managers and strata councils follow the same steps: a walkthrough, a written plan and a fixed visit schedule. Crews clean common areas, entrances and exteriors at townhouse complexes and multi-tenant buildings, and the quote names who to call for access.
