It is the same paperwork we hand a new account: what gets cleaned, how often, and what “done” looks like when somebody actually inspects it. Use it to write a fair bid packet, audit your current vendor, or just settle the argument about restroom frequency. No sales call required to read it.

What we run
Five programs, one crew that knows your floor plan
Most buildings need two of these and think they need five. The walkthrough sorts that out — and whatever you pick lands on a written scope with frequencies attached.
Day porter
A named porter on site during business hours: lobby and entry patrol, restroom checks and restock, spill response, conference-room resets between meetings, loading-dock tidy, and trash from tenant events.
Medical & dental suites
Exam-room turnover, waiting-room and reception detail, color-coded microfiber to separate clinical and public areas, and handling of regulated-waste containers strictly per your facility's own written infection-control policy.
Post-construction cleanup
Rough, final and touch-up phases: overhead and ledge dust, stickers and adhesive off glass and fixtures, duct-grille wipe, fixture polish, and floor prep so the sealer or wax goes down on a clean substrate.
Floor care programs
VCT strip and refinish, scheduled burnishing, hot-water carpet extraction, tile and grout restoration, entryway matting programs, and polished-concrete maintenance on a calendar you approve in advance.
How onboarding works
From walkthrough to first inspection, in four steps
Nothing here is automatic and none of it is guaranteed — it is simply the order that keeps a building from getting the wrong scope. Scroll, and the folder travels the route with you.
- Step 01
We walk the building with you
A SparkleCo account manager walks every floor with your facility team — counting fixtures, measuring cleanable square footage, and writing down the two or three things that actually generate complaints.
- Step 02
You get a written scope, room by room
Not a one-page bid. A task list per area with a frequency next to each line, plus an itemized estimate. Pricing is illustrative until scope is final, and scope varies by engagement.
- Step 03
Your crew is named and screened
The same technicians, a named supervisor, background screening completed before badging, and documented key and alarm-code control. You get the roster in writing before night one.
- Step 04
First 30 nights, then a real inspection
Your supervisor scores the building on the walkthrough sheet, photographs anything on the punch list, and sits down with you to adjust the scope where the building disagreed with the plan.
Quality inspections
What a SparkleCo walkthrough actually looks like
“Quality control” on most janitorial proposals means somebody promises to care. Ours is a scored sheet, a camera, and a date on the calendar — so a complaint about the third-floor restroom turns into a line item with an owner instead of a phone call you have to make twice.
A 40-point walkthrough, scored by area
Restrooms, entries, breakrooms, stairwells, elevators and floors are each scored — so a problem lands on a specific area and a specific line, not on a vague email.
Photo log for every punch-list item
Anything marked down gets a photo, a location and an owner. You see the same log we do, so nothing turns into a he-said-she-said about last Tuesday.
A written response, typically next business day
Punch-list items come back with what was corrected and what changes in the nightly routine. Response times are typical, not guaranteed, and vary with scope and staffing.
Quarterly scope review with your FM
Buildings change — a floor gets leased, a clinic adds exam rooms, a lobby gets carpet. Every quarter we re-read the scope against the building you actually have now.
Inspection cadence, scoring sheets and response windows are described here as typical practice. They are set per engagement and are not a guarantee of any particular outcome.
Crews & chemistry
Who is in your building at 11 PM, and what they are spraying
Screened, badged, and the same faces
Technicians complete background screening before they are badged for your building. Keys and alarm codes are logged and reconciled, and you receive the crew roster and supervisor name in writing before night one. Turnover happens in this industry — when it does, you get told, not surprised.
Green product options, honestly described
We can build your scope around third-party-certified green chemistry, dilution control at the closet, HEPA-filtration vacuums and color-coded microfiber that cuts chemical use. Certifications belong to the products and their manufacturers, vary by SKU, and are not claims SparkleCo makes about itself.
Coverage
Crews within about 25 miles of the buildings we serve
Illustrative service areas include Columbus and Cleveland, Ohio; Charlotte and Raleigh, North Carolina; Fort Worth and Plano, Texas; Sacramento, California; Tampa, Florida; Grand Rapids, Michigan; Omaha, Nebraska; and Boise, Idaho. Drive radius keeps the same crew on the same building instead of shuffling a route.
Facility managers
What the people who sign the invoice say
The part that mattered was the walkthrough sheet. Before SparkleCo I chased our old vendor by email; now I get a scored sheet and photos, and the stairwell landings stopped being an argument.
Exam-room turnover follows our own infection-control policy, which is exactly what I asked for — they did not try to sell me a certification. Color-coded microfiber, same two techs every night.
Our day porter knows the loading dock schedule better than I do. Spills in the food court get handled before I hear about them, and the conference rooms are reset between bookings.

Straight answers
Before you request a walkthrough
A typical office scope covers trash and recycling, restroom cleaning and restock, breakroom and kitchenette surfaces, vacuuming of carpeted areas, dust mopping and damp mopping of hard floors, entry glass, and disinfection of high-touch points. Detail work such as high dusting, vent wipes and partition washing is usually placed on a monthly or quarterly frequency. Every line and every frequency is written into your scope document before service starts — scope varies by engagement.
