Property services in Calgary

Scheduled residential cleaning on a checklist you have seen and agreed, so there is no ambiguity about what was meant to be done. Kitchens and bathrooms get the detailed attention; floors, surfaces, and fixtures are covered on every visit; and the periodic items — inside appliances, inside windows, baseboards, light fixtures — run on a stated rotation rather than being quietly skipped. Weekly, biweekly, monthly, or one-time deep cleans.

Commercial cleaning is usually after hours, keyed or fobbed, and answerable to a building's own rules on access, waste, and security. Scope is written to the space: washrooms and kitchens daily, floors on a defined cycle, high-touch surfaces every visit, and periodic work like carpet extraction and hard-floor maintenance scheduled rather than reactive. Consumables can be supplied and tracked so nobody discovers an empty dispenser on a Monday morning.

Construction dust is fine, abrasive, and it settles for days after the trades leave. A proper post-construction clean runs in stages: rough clean once debris is out, then a detailed clean of every surface including inside cabinets, light fixtures, vents, and window tracks, then a final pass after the dust that was still airborne has settled. Stickers, labels, and protective film come off, paint specks come off glass and hardware, and filters get changed because they have been catching drywall dust the whole time.

Gutters full of debris overflow at the fascia and put water directly against the foundation, and in winter they freeze solid and contribute to ice damming. Clearing them twice a year — after leaf drop especially — is one of the cheapest pieces of preventative maintenance a building has. We flush downspouts to confirm they actually run, and check that discharge points still carry water away. Window cleaning covers glass, frames, tracks, and screens, inside and out where access allows.

As recurring maintenance rather than a one-off, the useful question is frequency, not method. Twice a year keeps entrances, walkways, and parking areas ahead of the problem; once a year usually does not, and the difference shows in shaded corners where algae builds and turns into a slip claim. We book it into the maintenance calendar, work around trading hours where a commercial site needs it, and tell you when a surface is deteriorating rather than merely dirty — washing a failing sealant joint only makes it more obvious.

A turnover is a short window where cleaning, repairs, and sometimes paint all have to happen before the next tenancy starts, and every extra day is lost rent. We work from a move-out condition report, separate normal wear from damage so the condition record is defensible under Alberta's Residential Tenancies Act, and schedule the trades in one pass rather than several visits. Photographic documentation before and after gives you a record for both the outgoing and incoming tenant.

Clear-outs for renovations, estates, tenancies, and the accumulation that follows any long occupancy. Material is sorted rather than tipped wholesale: recycling, electronics, metal, and household goods that can be donated all go where they should, and only the genuine waste goes to landfill. Some items — paint, solvents, batteries, tyres, appliances containing refrigerant — have specific disposal requirements in Calgary and cannot go in a general load.

A written schedule of the small recurring checks that stop small problems becoming projects: furnace filters, HRV cleaning, smoke and carbon monoxide detector testing, caulking and sealant joints, drain and trap checks, sump pump testing before spring melt, and exterior sealant before winter. Most of these take minutes and get skipped for years. We work to a calendar, do them on schedule, and keep a record so you can see what was checked and when.

Ongoing support for commercial properties where something always needs attention and nobody on site is a tradesperson. A single point of contact for reactive repairs, scheduled maintenance, and coordination of specialist trades. Work is logged so the property manager has a record for budgeting and for the owner. For multi-tenant buildings we can work to a defined response order — life-safety and water first, cosmetic last — agreed in advance rather than negotiated during.
