Cleaning & Facility Services for Office Buildings and Business Offices

Reliable, professional cleaning and maintenance for Greater Boston's commercial office buildings and tenant suites — from a company that has been doing this since 1977.

Two different managers. Two different sets of concerns.

A commercial office building has two distinct audiences whose needs 78-Clean addresses separately — the building owner or property manager responsible for the common areas, and the office manager or business owner responsible for their tenant suite. Both matter. Both have different pain points. And both deserve a service program built around what they actually need.

For building owners and property managers

For a property manager overseeing a commercial office building, the primary concern is presentation and reliability. Lobbies, elevator banks, restrooms, stairwells, and shared corridors are the first thing every tenant and visitor sees. When those spaces aren't consistently maintained, tenants notice — and in a competitive leasing market, presentation influences retention as much as lease terms do.

The secondary concern is vendor coordination. Most building managers are already managing multiple relationships — HVAC, electrical, plumbing, landscaping, snow removal. Adding a cleaning company that requires its own scheduling system, its own point of contact, and its own accountability structure just adds complexity. When something falls through the cracks, it's never clear whose responsibility it is.

78-Clean eliminates that fragmentation. Our 78-Clean and 78-Fixit teams handle building cleaning, common area maintenance, trash service, landscaping, snow removal, and general repairs — all coordinated through a single Relationship Manager who knows your building. One call. One company. One standard.

What building owners and property managers care about

Common area presentation drives tenant retention.

A well-maintained lobby, clean restrooms, and tidy shared spaces signal to tenants that their building is professionally managed. 78-Clean's recurring programs keep your building's common areas consistently presentable — not just after a complaint, but before one is ever made.

Specialty services on a schedule.

Floor care, power washing, window cleaning, and deep cleaning aren't one-time events — they're part of a building's maintenance calendar. 78-Clean builds these into your service program on a schedule that fits your building's budget cycle and seasonal needs, so nothing gets deferred indefinitely.

78-Fixit handles what cleaning can't.

Scuffed walls, broken door hardware, burned-out fixtures, damaged baseboards — these small maintenance items accumulate and erode a building's presentation over time. When a spill mandates carpet cleaning and a wall needs patching, it's the same company handling both.

For office managers and business owners

For the office manager or business owner managing a tenant suite, the concerns are different. Employees start their day in the office — the cleanliness of the kitchen, the restrooms, the conference rooms, and the workstations affects morale, absenteeism, productivity, and how the business presents itself to clients and visitors. A cleaning program that's inconsistent, or that leaves the same areas untouched week after week, becomes a source of internal friction that nobody wants to manage.

78-Clean works with tenant offices across Greater Boston in a range of industries — business offices, legal and insurance firms, dental offices, flower shops, and more. Each environment has its own requirements, and we build service programs accordingly.

What office managers and business owners care about

Consistency matters more than a great first clean.

The first visit is easy. What matters is whether the office looks the same six months later — whether the same corners are still being reached, the same surfaces still being wiped, the same restrooms still being restocked. 78-Clean's supervisor oversight and service quality checks ensure that consistency is built into the program, not left to chance.

Discretion is non-negotiable in certain environments.

Legal offices, insurance firms, banks and other financial services businesses handle sensitive documents and confidential client information every day. Our crews are trained to work around sensitive materials — never moving, reading, or disturbing documents, files, or workstations. If your business operates in an environment where confidentiality is a professional and legal obligation, you need a cleaning company that treats it the same way.

Different office types have different requirements.

A dental office has sanitation standards and surface treatment requirements that a general business office doesn't. A flower shop has specific cleaning considerations around organic debris and tent-pole holidays. A legal firm has after-hours cleaning requirements and strict protocols around workstation access. 78-Clean's service programs are built around your specific environment — not a generic checklist applied uniformly to every client.

After-hours cleaning keeps your business day uninterrupted.

Most of our office cleaning is scheduled after business hours — your employees leave, we come in, and your office is ready for the next morning. No disruption to meetings, calls, or client visits. If daytime or weekend cleaning works better for your operation, we build around your schedule.
