Commercial cleaning & janitorial services
A janitorial program should run consistently, without your attention. Ours is built to: a written scope of work, trained night crews, and inspections that catch problems before you do — for facilities across Columbus & Central Ohio.
Standard scope
What a 3Z's janitorial program includes
Frequencies are set per area during your walkthrough — nightly for restrooms and high-traffic zones, weekly or monthly for detail work.
- Restroom sanitation — disinfect fixtures, clean mirrors and partitions, restock consumables
- Trash & recycling — collect, re-line, and stage per your waste program
- High-touch disinfection — door hardware, switches, rails, shared equipment
- Breakrooms & kitchens — counters, sinks, appliances, tables, floors
- Vacuuming & carpet care — HEPA-filtration vacuums, spot treatment, scheduled extraction
- Hard floor maintenance — dust mop, damp mop, auto-scrub, burnish per floor type
- Dusting & detail work — surfaces, ledges, vents, blinds on rotation
- Interior glass & entryways — lobby glass, partition glass, entry mats
- Conference rooms & offices — surfaces, glass, trash, floors, reset to standard
- Consumables management — paper, soap, liners tracked and restocked

Transparent pricing
How commercial cleaning pricing actually works
Janitorial pricing is driven by four things: square footage, service frequency, fixture counts (restrooms are the biggest labor driver), and floor types. We measure all four during your walkthrough and price from the scope — not from a guess.
Your proposal shows per-visit and monthly pricing with every task listed. If you want to adjust frequency or scope to hit a budget, we'll show you exactly what changes.
-
Square footage & layoutOpen plans clean faster than dense private offices.
-
Service frequencyFive nights a week vs. two changes the math significantly.
-
Restroom & fixture countsRestrooms take the most labor per square foot in any building.
-
Floor types & finishesCarpet, VCT, and polished concrete each need a different program.
Quality control
The work gets checked. Every time.
Supervisors inspect your facility on a set schedule against a written, area-by-area checklist. You receive photo-documented reports, and anything below standard is corrected within 24 hours — not at the next service visit.
Common questions
Commercial cleaning FAQs
How often should a commercial office be cleaned?
Most professional offices run nightly service five days a week for restrooms, trash, and high-traffic areas, with detail work on a weekly or monthly rotation. Lower-occupancy facilities often do well with two or three visits per week. We'll recommend a frequency based on your headcount, traffic, and standards — and adjust it as your needs change.
Do you clean during or after business hours?
Whichever your facility requires. Most clients prefer after-hours service so cleaning never interrupts work. For buildings that need daytime coverage, we provide day porters who handle lobbies, restrooms, and spills while your business operates.
Can you take over from our current cleaning company?
Yes — vendor transitions are most of our new business. We coordinate the handoff, document existing problem areas during the walkthrough, and typically begin service the week your current agreement ends, with no gap in coverage.
You also clean homes now — does that change my facility's service?
No. Commercial and residential run as separate divisions with separate crews and separate scheduling — Bill assigns every crew personally, so your night crew, your account manager, and your inspection program stay dedicated to commercial accounts only.
Do you handle one-time or project cleans?
We do, for commercial facilities — post-construction cleanup, floor restoration projects, and deep cleans before audits, inspections, or events. Recurring programs get scheduling priority, but project work is quoted the same way: walkthrough first, written scope, firm price.
What cleaning products do you use?
Commercial-grade, EPA-registered products matched to each surface, applied with proper dwell times. Green-certified product lines are available on request for facilities with sustainability requirements.
