What changes the price
- How often: more visits a week means a lower price per visit.
- Square footage: the biggest factor. Bigger spaces cost more in total but less per square foot.
- Floors: carpet costs less to maintain than marble or hardwood.
- Restrooms and kitchens: how many you have matters more than square feet.
- Timing: after-hours cleaning is standard. A day porter is priced separately.
- Special requirements: badged access, executive floors, kosher kitchens or extra disinfection are built into the quote.
How quoting works
- Free walk-through.
- Written quote within one business day.
- A fixed monthly rate once you’re happy. No surprise line items.
Why no rate card? Every office is different. Two large restrooms, six kitchens or a marble lobby all change the work, so you get a real number for your space, not a guess. Learn more about our recurring office cleaning.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer flat monthly pricing?
Yes. Once we’ve done a walk-through and agreed on scope, we quote a fixed monthly rate. It doesn’t change unless your needs change (more square footage, added services). No hidden surcharges.
Is there a minimum contract length?
No long-term lock-in. Most clients start month-to-month and stay because the service works — our client retention rate is 98%. Cancel with 30 days’ notice.
What’s the difference between janitorial and office cleaning pricing?
“Janitorial” typically refers to nightly, high-frequency service for large buildings. “Office cleaning” often means smaller offices with 2–5x/week service. Rates per square foot are similar; total cost depends on frequency and scope.
Do NYC office buildings require a Certificate of Insurance?
Nearly always. We carry $2M general liability, workers’ comp, and umbrella coverage, and we issue COIs listing your building management as additional insured. Typical building requirements are met by our standard policy.
Do you clean single-tenant offices, or multi-tenant floors only?
Both. Whether you’re a single office on a shared floor or you occupy the whole building, we scope the quote to what you actually control and use.
