The Basics

What is office base building cleaning?

Office base building cleaning is the cleaning of the shared areas of a commercial office building that the owner or building manager is responsible for, rather than the private spaces leased by individual tenants.

It typically covers ground floor lobbies and foyers, lifts and lift lobbies, shared washrooms and amenities, end-of-trip facilities, stairwells and corridors, car parks, loading docks, bin rooms and building entrances.

Because these spaces form a tenant's and visitor's first impression of a building, base building cleaning is usually delivered to a higher and more consistent standard, with clear reporting back to the owner or facility manager.

What is office base building cleaning?
Office base building cleaning is the cleaning of the shared areas of a commercial office building, such as lobbies, lifts, washrooms, end-of-trip facilities, corridors, car parks and bin rooms. It is usually engaged by the building owner or facility manager rather than individual tenants.
