Printable checklist
What a public building plan covers.
A government building serves two groups at once. Residents come in for permits, records, hearings and payments, while the staff behind the counter spend a full working day in the same rooms. Fieldstone writes one plan for both: public lobbies and waiting areas, service counters, restrooms, council chambers and hearing rooms, then the open offices, conference rooms and break rooms on the staff floors.
Cleaning runs after the counters close, with every room listed by task and frequency. The lobby and the restrooms the public uses get attention each night, while records storage and seldom-booked conference rooms move to a lighter rotation that still keeps them in order.
Public buildings across the region.
Public buildings across Sacramento, San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose, Hayward, Concord and Elk Grove range from state and county office blocks and city halls to library branches, permit centers and community buildings.
Each one gets a plan sized to its own hours and traffic.
Public counters and waiting rooms.
The public side of a government building takes the hardest wear. Lines form at the permit counter, waiting-room chairs fill by midmorning, and the restrooms off the lobby serve everyone who walks through the door. The night crew wipes counters, glass partitions and payment kiosks, cleans the seating, polishes drinking fountains, resets the restrooms and finishes the floors last.
Offices with long counter hours add a day porter for the stretch the doors are open. Door pulls, elevator buttons, kiosk screens and the pens on the sign-in counter go on a disinfection route, so the surfaces residents touch most are handled on a set rhythm.
Chambers, hearing rooms and evening meetings.
Council and board meetings, planning commission hearings and public workshops often run late into the evening. The crew waits for the room to empty, then dusts the dais and seating rows, wipes the public comment podium, vacuums the carpet and restores the nearby restrooms, so everything is back in shape before staff arrive the next day.
Chamber carpet and lobby floors take a beating on meeting nights. Carpet extraction and hard-floor projects such as strip-and-refinish of vinyl tile corridors are booked for weekends or recess weeks, when the building is quiet and the floors have time to dry.
Staff floors, records and restricted areas.
Behind the counter, agency floors run like any busy workplace: workstations, conference rooms, kitchens, copy rooms and staff restrooms. They follow our office cleaning routine, set to the days your teams are in the building and the hours the floors are empty.
Records rooms, evidence storage, IT closets and other restricted spaces are entered only on your terms: a badge, a key log, an escort or a scheduled window. Crews clean the surfaces you open to them and leave files, screens and equipment exactly as they found them.
Access, screening and accountability.
Agencies want to know who is in the building after dark. Our cleaners are background checked before they ever hold keys, and they follow your own badging, sign-in and escort procedures on top of that. Keys and access cards are tracked the way your facilities team sets out.
Supervisors carry out quality inspections against the written plan, so the standard holds year after year. Fieldstone carries insurance and workers’ compensation coverage, and a certificate of insurance goes to every client before the first night of service.
Bids and what sets the price.
Public agencies often buy cleaning through a formal bid with a written task list. We walk each building, price it against its own list of areas and frequencies, and return a quote laid out to match your bid documents. Our task list guide helps when your team is drafting one.
Price follows the building: square footage, the count of public restrooms, counter hours, meeting nights, access steps such as escorts and badging, and any porter hours. Floor and carpet projects are quoted as their own lines, so each part of the budget is easy to review.
A few useful answers
Common questions.
We run a city hall, a library and a corporation yard office. Can they share one plan?
Yes. Each building gets its own list of areas, tasks and nights, and all of them sit in one written plan with a single Fieldstone contact.
Will the crew wait for a late planning commission meeting to finish?
Yes. The visit is scheduled to begin when the meeting wraps up, and the chamber and lobby are ready before the counters open.
Do your cleaners go through our badging process?
Yes. Cleaners follow your badging, sign-in and escort procedures, in addition to the background checks Fieldstone completes before anyone holds keys.
Can our quote follow the layout of our bid documents?
Yes. We price each building and line item in the order your bid lists them, so the quote is simple to compare during review.
Can corridor floors be refinished during a recess week?
Yes. Strip-and-refinish and carpet extraction can be booked for a holiday weekend or recess week, so the floors are dry and back in service when staff return.
