Capitals, county seats and civic centers
Two state capitals sit inside our service area, Sacramento and Carson City, with state office buildings filling the blocks around each capitol.
Many of the cities we serve, including Oakland, San Jose, Fresno and Reno, are county seats as well, with city halls, county service centers and courthouses of their own.
Public lobbies and service counters
Residents judge an agency by its lobby. Permit counters, cashier windows, queue rails, ticket kiosks and the benches where people wait are handled all day long, so each evening visit wipes them down, polishes the entry glass and leaves the floor clean for the first visitor of the morning.
Restrooms near the public entrance take more use than those on staff floors, and they are cleaned, disinfected and restocked on every visit. Where the building screens visitors at the door, the screening tables, bins and the floor around the metal detector are cleaned after the checkpoint closes for the day.
Agencies that want added attention on counters, kiosks and shared equipment can fold scheduled disinfection and sanitizing into the routine.
Council chambers, hearing rooms and meeting spaces
Chambers and hearing rooms keep their own calendar. A planning commission or board of supervisors meeting can run well into the evening, so the room is cleaned after it adjourns: dais and lectern wiped, public seating cleared of agendas and cups, carpet vacuumed, and the nearest restrooms reset before the next session.
Conference rooms, training rooms and community rooms that the public reserves get the same turnaround. Tables are wiped, chairs are lined back up, and whiteboards are erased on request, so the next group walks into a room that is ready to use.
Some offices see surges tied to the public calendar. County election offices fill up around voting periods, and clerk-recorder and tax collector lobbies get crowded near filing deadlines. A one-time deep clean afterward, or extra porter hours during the busiest week, keeps those lobbies and restrooms presentable while the lines are long.
Staff floors, records rooms and restricted areas
Behind the counters, agency staff work much like any office team, with workstations, breakrooms, copy rooms and restrooms. Bins are emptied, shared surfaces wiped, breakroom counters and appliances cleaned and supplies restocked, so each floor is ready when the workday begins. Office cleaning describes that nightly routine in more detail.
Records rooms, IT closets and other restricted spaces are cleaned on the terms your security procedures set, with an escort wherever one is required. Crews leave files, papers and screens exactly as they found them, and rooms that stay locked are entered only on the visits you schedule for them.
Access, screening and accountability
Public buildings run on controlled access, and our crews are background-checked before they work in yours. They follow your badging, key control and sign-in procedures. Share which doors lock at what hour, who issues keys and how the alarm is set, and the visit plan is written around those rules from the first night.

Bids, solicitations and what sets the price
Public agencies often buy cleaning through a formal bid. Send the solicitation, its task list and any site walk date, and after touring the building we return a written price organized the same way your bid lists its buildings and areas.
Every building is priced after a walkthrough, not from a posted rate. Cleanable square footage, the number of public restrooms, visit frequency, after-hours access windows, escort requirements and porter coverage during public hours all move the figure. Historic civic buildings with terrazzo, marble or wood floors add natural stone care and commercial floor care on their own interval, and plazas and entry steps can join the plan through pressure washing.
A few useful answers
Common questions.
Can the chamber be cleaned after a late council meeting?
Yes. The visit is set to start once the meeting adjourns, and the chamber, lobby and nearby restrooms are reset before staff return in the morning.
How do your crews handle records rooms and other restricted spaces?
They enter only with the authorization or escort your procedures call for, clean the surfaces you open to them and leave files and equipment untouched.
Can a porter stay on site while the public counters are open?
Yes. A day porter keeps lobby restrooms stocked, empties bins and wipes counters and kiosks during public hours, while the full clean happens after closing.
Will you send a certificate of insurance for our files?
Yes. Your agency gets a copy for its records before the first night of service, and a renewed copy whenever the policy period rolls over.
Can a county with offices in several cities use one cleaning plan?
Yes. Each building is listed with its own task list and schedule, and all of them sit under a single plan.
