Commercial Cleaning Services

Labor is the product. The margin is what's left between the contract price and what you pay your crew. That's the whole game.

Labor Is the Business

Supplies are a rounding error. A few hundred a month. Equipment lasts for years. The mops don’t matter. The floor machines don’t matter. What matters is people.

You’re selling hours. Your margin is the difference between what the client pays and what you pay your crew to be there. That’s it. Everything else is noise.

When labor cost creeps up, margin disappears. When you underbid a contract, you’re paying people to lose money. When someone calls in sick and you cover the shift yourself at 11pm, that’s the business reminding you what it’s made of.

Do You Know Your Contract Math?

You bid $2,400 a month on that office building. Three cleaners, twice a week, two hours each visit. Looks good on paper.

But what does it actually cost? Labor is $1,680. Drive time adds another hour per visit that you didn’t price in. Supplies run $90. One callback a month for something the day crew missed. Now you’re at $2,100 in real cost. That $2,400 contract nets $300. Not $720 like you thought.

Most cleaning company owners can tell you their contract prices. Fewer can tell you their actual profit per contract after everything is counted. That gap is where businesses stall out or fail.

More Contracts, More Complexity

One building is simple. Ten buildings with different schedules, different crews, different rates, and different supply needs? That’s a logistics operation. Add employee turnover, training time, quality callbacks, and the occasional client who doesn’t pay on time.

Growth doesn’t make it easier. Growth makes it more complicated. More people to pay, more vehicles to track, more contracts to manage, more chances for something to slip. The businesses that scale are the ones who know their numbers at every level.

Who We Work With

Janitorial services, office cleaning, floor care, post-construction cleanup, medical and dental office cleaning, restaurant cleaning, industrial facilities. One crew or twenty.

Where You Are

Past the owner-does-everything stage. Real contracts, real employees, real complexity. Too busy managing crews to manage the books.

How We Help

You clean buildings. We clean up the books. Here’s what that looks like.

Monthly Bookkeeping

Books closed every month. Revenue, labor, supplies, and overhead tracked accurately. You see the real numbers, not the ones you hoped for.

Profit by Contract

What does each account actually net after labor and everything else? We help you see which contracts are carrying the business and which are dragging.

Labor Cost Tracking

Hours by employee, cost by contract, overtime, callbacks. Your biggest expense deserves the closest attention.

Payroll

Weekly or biweekly, multiple crews, variable hours. We run it accurately and on time so your people get paid and you stay compliant.
