Commercial Cleaning Services
Commercial cleaning for multi-tenant buildings, retail frontage and public lobbies, plus turnover cleaning that readies vacant units for the next tenant. Ascent Cleaning keeps the spaces visitors see at their best, on a recurring schedule or as a one-time clean.
Entrances, rooms, and shared surfaces
We clean reception areas, restrooms, breakrooms, floors, and interior glass. Recurring visits address everyday use, while one-time service handles a particular cleaning need.
Care across a mixed-use property
Keep public lobbies, tenant spaces, and staff areas clean with recurring service. Common areas and individual units can be covered together or on their own schedules.
Detail cleaning and turnover work
Periodic detail cleaning tackles buildup beyond routine visits. Tenant turnover cleaning prepares vacant commercial spaces for their next occupants.
Built for shared buildings and storefronts
Commercial cleaning is for the parts of a property the public sees: the lobby of a multi-tenant building, a retail frontage, shared corridors and restrooms, and units between tenants. Each area gets a frequency set by its traffic, so busy spaces get more attention and quiet rooms are not over-cleaned.
Need cleaning for a single occasion? One-time and turnover cleans are available, and post-construction cleaning covers new builds and remodels. For recurring nightly service inside an office or facility, see janitorial services.
Customer-facing spaces and back-of-house rooms
Visitors judge a property by the lobby, the reception desk, the restroom and the front glass, so those spaces are cleaned on every visit. Back-of-house rooms such as staff offices, storage areas and workrooms are cleaned on a rotation that matches their use, with trash, floors and high-touch surfaces always covered.
That puts the most time where visitors look. A busy retail frontage or medical lobby gets the most attention, while a quiet storeroom receives a lighter pass. A day porter keeps the customer side fresh during open hours.
Dividing responsibilities in a multi-tenant building
Owners get lobbies, elevators and common restrooms on the building’s schedule, and each tenant suite runs on its own, so nothing is cleaned twice or missed.
Once the areas are assigned, each gets its own frequency and visit time. Common areas might be cleaned nightly with a porter by day, while tenant suites run on fewer visits. Property managers add or remove suites as leases change, and each owner or manager receives a certificate of insurance for the building file when service begins.
Turnover cleaning between tenants
A vacant commercial unit needs more than a routine visit before it is shown or handed over. Turnover cleaning takes care of dust on ledges and fixtures, restrooms, interior glass, breakroom surfaces and floors, so the space looks ready to lease. In Vallejo, Concord and San Francisco alike, turnover work can be paired with recurring care for the occupied suites around it.
If the space was remodeled for the new tenant, post-construction cleaning removes the construction dust first, and then turnover and recurring work take over.
Before booking, note the date of any showing or move-in, the condition the previous tenant left, and whether power and lighting are on. Those details shape how long the work takes and what it covers.
How commercial cleaning is priced in Northern California
Commercial cleaning is billed by the square foot each month. For a property cleaned five nights a week, most of our service areas fall between $0.15 and $0.25 per square foot, according to 2026 public contract pricing and market data, with simple Central Valley buildings below that and detail-heavy San Francisco towers above it.
On a multi-tenant property, the math follows the areas you hand to us. Picture a 30,000-square-foot San Francisco building where the owner covers the lobby, shared corridors and six common restrooms while each tenant suite runs on its own schedule. Clean the full footprint five nights at $0.21 and the bill lands at $6,300 a month. Move storage rooms and workrooms to a weekly rotation and that figure drops, because the crew spends its nights where visitors actually go.
Footage and frequency set the baseline. After that, the count of restrooms and breakrooms, how much floor is carpet versus hard surface, the amount of front glass, and the hours the building is open to the crew all push the rate one way or the other. A clear split between owner areas and tenant suites keeps anything from being cleaned twice. Turnover cleaning between tenants, one-time visits and post-construction work are priced as separate jobs, and union and prevailing-wage buildings price higher. We walk the property with you, map who owns each area, and turn that into a quote that shows every space and its frequency.
A few useful answers
Frequently asked questions
Can floor maintenance be added to regular commercial cleaning?
Yes. Floor maintenance is available alongside recurring cleaning. The material and finish determine which treatment the floor needs.
Can different areas of the same property have different cleaning frequencies?
Yes. Each area’s frequency is set by how heavily it is used.
What should we include in a commercial cleaning request?
List the property address, the areas to be cleaned, the hours they are empty and any periodic work such as floor or carpet care. Note which spaces belong to tenants and which to the building.
Is commercial cleaning available early in the morning?
Yes. Early-morning, after-hours and chosen-day visits are all options, set around your occupancy.
Can a single vacant suite be cleaned without a recurring plan?
Yes. Turnover cleaning is booked as one-time work for a vacant unit.
How often should lobbies be cleaned compared with offices?
Lobbies and public restrooms are usually cleaned on every visit and often get porter attention during the day, while offices follow a rotation set by occupancy.
