Cleaning for Apartment Communities and Managed Buildings
Property management cleaning covers the parts of a building a manager is responsible for rather than the parts a resident is: lobbies, corridors, stairwells, lifts, amenity rooms, laundry and mail areas, leasing offices and vacant units between tenancies. It runs on a written scope with a single point of contact, and the access arrangement is agreed in writing before the first visit.
Managing a building means the cleaning question arrives in two completely different forms. There is the steady one, which is common areas residents walk through every day and that a prospective tenant forms an opinion from long before they reach the leasing office. Then there is the unpredictable one, which is a unit handed back on Tuesday that has to show on Friday. Those are scoped separately, because a fixed common-area schedule and an on-call turn programme are staffed and priced differently, and folding them together means one of them gets squeezed. Access is settled in writing: which doors, which codes, who at your end authorises entry to a unit and what notice is required.
What is included
- Lobbies, entrances and entrance glass kept presentable
- Corridors, stairwells and landings on the agreed frequency
- Lift interiors, including tracks, panels and mirrors

- Bin rooms and refuse areas cleaned and deodorised
- Vacant unit turns worked to a fixed checklist
What is not included

- Maintenance, repairs, painting and appliance servicing
- Removal of furniture or abandoned belongings from a unit
- Grounds, landscaping, car parks and external washing unless scoped
- Pest control and mould remediation
Optional add-ons
Added to your quote only if you ask for them, and priced before the visit rather than after it.
How it works
- 1 We walk the common areas Lobbies, corridors, lifts, amenities and bin rooms, with a frequency agreed per area.
- 2 We separate the turns Unit turnovers are scoped and priced on their own, so neither programme squeezes the other.
- 3 We put access in writing Which doors, which codes, who authorises unit entry and what notice is required.
- 4 We work to one contact Requests come through a single route, so nothing depends on who happened to answer.
What affects the price
Every quote is free and fixed after the walkthrough, or from the property details you provide. These are the things that move the figure.
- Number of buildings, floors and units in the community
- How much common-area floor space is in scope
- Visit frequency for the common areas
- Expected number of unit turns in a month
- How quickly a turn has to be completed
- Access arrangements and whether escorted entry is required
What matters most to Metro Atlanta clients
Homeowners and business owners across Metro Atlanta tend to care about the same three things when they hire a cleaning company. Here is how we approach each of them.
Showing up when we say we will
A cleaning you have to chase is worse than no cleaning at all. We confirm the window before the visit, we arrive inside it, and if something changes on our end you hear it from us first rather than finding out when nobody knocks.
The parts other people skip
Baseboards, the tops of door frames, the corner behind the bin, the inside of the microwave. We work from a checklist built around your property on the first visit, and we adjust it whenever you tell us something matters more than we assumed.
People you are comfortable letting in
Everyone who arrives is in a Mater uniform and can tell you exactly what was booked. Wherever scheduling allows we keep the same pair on your property, so you are not introducing strangers to your home or your building every few weeks.

Common questions about property management cleaning
Do you handle vacant unit turns?
Yes, on a fixed checklist so a turn never depends on who is on the job that day. Turns are quoted separately from the common-area schedule, because the volume is unpredictable and the deadline usually is not. Tell us the expected number in a month and the timescale you work to.
How do you handle keys and building access?
Through a written access arrangement agreed before the first visit, naming exactly which doors and codes we hold, where they are kept and who at your end authorises entry to a unit. We do not enter an occupied unit unless the resident is party to the arrangement.
Can you cover more than one property?
Yes, and it is usually simpler. A portfolio runs on one scope document with per-property schedules and a single point of contact, which means one requote when a property is added rather than a fresh conversation every time.
How quickly can you turn a unit around?
That depends on the state it is handed back in and how many are already queued, so we will not put a blanket number on it. Give us the handback date and the showing date and we will confirm within one business day whether it is achievable, and say so plainly if it is not.
