Commercial cleaning from Fieldstone.

Commercial buildings carry more strangers than offices do. Customers, tenants, visitors and delivery drivers all use the same doors, corridors and restrooms, and they all form an opinion of the property.

Fieldstone cleans entrances and lobbies, sales floors and showrooms, shared corridors and elevators, public restrooms and the back offices behind them. Each area is listed in the written plan with its own frequency.

Visits happen before you open, after you close or overnight, so the cleaning never competes with your customers.

Step by step

How it works.

01

Walk the property

Entrances, shared corridors, tenant spaces and restrooms.

02

Assign frequencies

Public areas more often, back rooms on a lighter cycle.

03

Clean outside open hours

Before opening, after close or overnight.

04

Hold the standard

One written routine for every visit.

A visitor’s first thirty seconds.

Think about what a stranger touches and sees on the way in: the door handle, the mat, the glass, the first few yards of floor, the directory board, then the walk to the elevator or the restroom. That short route decides whether a building feels looked after.

We clean it in the order a visitor meets it, and we check it hardest. The back corridor matters too, but it can run on a lighter cycle. A hard floor care cycle keeps that busy entry path as bright as the rest of the floor.

Shared buildings and tenant spaces.

In a multi-tenant building, the property manager usually owns the common areas: lobbies, corridors, elevators, stairwells and shared restrooms. Tenants own their suites. A clear plan says exactly who owns what, so nothing falls between the two. Property managers get our certificate of insurance for their vendor file before the first night.

Fieldstone can clean the common areas alone, the suites alone or both. Busy shared buildings often add a porter for open hours, and new tenants moving in get a cleanup after their build-out.

Commercial cleaning prices across the Bay Area and Sacramento

Going by 2026 market rates, cleaning the offices and common areas of a multi-tenant building in our service area typically costs $0.15 to $0.25 for each square foot per month on a five-night schedule. Quiet buildings with large open floors, mostly in the Sacramento region, can start at $0.10. Storefronts and buildings with customer restrooms price toward the top of the band or above it, and San Francisco properties with busy public restrooms, large lobbies and long hours reach $0.46. The cost guide breaks the range down by city.

A worked example: a 12,000-square-foot Walnut Creek property with two shops on the ground floor and two floors of offices above. Entrances, the lobby, the elevator and four public-facing restrooms are cleaned before the shops open, and the office floors are cleaned overnight. At $0.21 a square foot, a little above the office rate because of the shops, that comes to $2,520 a month. Drop the retail visits to four mornings and the figure falls; add weekend lobby service and it rises.

Public traffic is the big driver. A restroom used by customers takes more time than one used by staff, and a street entrance collects grit, receipts and gum that a suite door never sees. Glass storefronts, stone or terrazzo lobby floors, the number of tenants sharing a corridor and the hours you need the crew in or out all count. Multi-tenant buildings also pay for clear lines between common areas and tenant spaces. We set those lines during the walkthrough and put them in a written plan and quote.

A few useful answers

Common questions.

Our tenants clean their own suites. Can Fieldstone take just the common areas?

Yes. A property manager can hand us the lobby, corridors, elevators and public restrooms, and leave each suite to its tenant.

Do you clean before stores open?

Yes. Early-morning visits finish before the doors unlock.

What about the fingerprints on our front doors?

Entry glass and push plates are cleaned every visit, inside and out where we can reach, because that is where visitors look first.

Can tenants add their own suites to the plan?

Yes. A tenant suite can join the building plan as its own line, with its own nights.

Who sees the written plan for a shared building?

The property manager receives it, and tenant suites can each get their own page in it.

Do you clean hotel lobbies and civic buildings?

Yes. Hotel lobbies and event spaces and the counters, waiting areas and lobbies of civic buildings follow this public-facing routine.

How do you handle elevator cabs and stairwells?

Elevator walls, doors and buttons are wiped and the floors cleaned on every visit. Stairwells are swept, mopped and their rails wiped on a set cycle.

Can cleaning run while a store is open?

The full clean happens outside open hours, and a day porter can handle restrooms and spills while customers are inside.
