A commercial cleaning walkthrough is a visit where the cleaning company tours your building with you before it writes a quote. The company sees every room, asks how the space is used, and prices the real work instead of a guess.
BizProClean offers commercial cleaning services in Northern Virginia and Maryland, and every quote we write starts with a free walkthrough.
What Happens During a Commercial Cleaning Walkthrough
The rooms
- Every room, including storage rooms and the break room
- The restrooms: how many, and how many sinks and toilets
- The floor types: carpet, tile, vinyl or sealed concrete
- The trash and recycling points, and where the bags go out
How the space is used
- How many people work there, and on which days
- Rooms that need extra care, such as a kitchen or a waiting room
- Rooms the crew must not enter, or may enter only with a staff member
- The hours when the building is empty
Access and supplies
- Keys, key cards and the alarm
- A closet where the crew can keep its cart and products
- Who refills paper towels, soap and toilet paper
- Where the dumpster is
How Often Should the Crew Visit?
The visit is also where the schedule gets set, room by room.
- Every weekday: busy offices, medical suites and buildings with public restrooms.
- Two or three times a week: small offices with few visitors.
- Every visit, whatever the plan: restrooms, kitchens and trash.
- Once a month: high dusting, vents and the tops of cabinets.
What OSHA and the CDC Expect
Under OSHA's sanitation rule, a workplace must be kept as clean as the nature of its work allows, and washrooms need hand soap and a way to dry hands. The CDC says routine cleaning is enough for most spaces, while busy areas may need it more often. A good tour points out where your building needs more than routine care.
Buildings We Visit in Northern Virginia and Maryland
BizProClean is locally owned and operated, with its base in Tysons, Virginia. We tour offices, medical suites, schools, churches, gyms and warehouses, and we write down what we see in each room. That list becomes the checklist the crew follows on every visit. In a building shared by several tenants, the tour also settles which lobbies, hallways and restrooms the building's own cleaners handle and which belong to your suite; our guide to multi-tenant office building cleaning explains how to split them.
The same free visit comes with our office cleaning services in McLean, VA, our janitorial services in Herndon, VA and our commercial cleaning services in Rockville, MD.
We price your rooms, not an average building: the notes from the visit become your cleaning scope of work, and our janitorial services then cover restrooms, trash and floors on every visit from that written list. Bring the questions your staff ask most often, such as how the restrooms are restocked, when the kitchen is cleaned or who empties the recycling, so each answer goes straight into the scope.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the walkthrough free?
Yes. At BizProClean the visit and the written quote are both free.
Who should come on the tour?
The person who manages the building, and anyone who knows the problem spots, such as the front desk staff.
What happens after the visit?
You receive a written quote that lists the tasks and how often each one is done. You can change any line before you sign.
Should the building be empty during the visit?
Either works. Seeing the space during the workday shows how busy each room gets, which helps set the schedule.
