MEI Commercial Cleaning Services LLC provides commercial cleaning throughout San Diego County. Our janitorial services help business owners and property managers plan care for offices, shared spaces and occupied facilities. We define the tasks, equipment and access around your building’s traffic, operating hours and surfaces.
Office cleaning visits. For an office that needs scheduled cleaning, start with the rooms and tasks: reception, work areas, restrooms, breakrooms and floors. Tell us the approximate cleanable area and visits per week. Office visits receive their own scope and price; a short visit is not automatically priced as a daily staffing contract.
Janitorial contracts and day porter coverage. Janitorial programs follow an agreed cleaning schedule; porters provide defined support while the property is operating. The hourly contract option in our estimator applies only to over 3 hours per service day, 3–7 days per week. Other schedules are quoted separately.
Post-construction cleaning and specialty projects. For a remodel, handover, carpet extraction or machine floor treatment, describe the surface, condition, access and deadline. These projects are assessed separately from routine upkeep. Note whether carpet needs vacuuming or extraction and which areas will be ready for cleaning.
Use the service estimator for a preliminary budget, or request a walkthrough so the written proposal can confirm tasks, exclusions and scheduling.
Choose a core cleaning program, then add specialty services where your property needs more attention.

Office cleaning, commercial cleaning, post-construction and other services are quoted separately by visit or project. A $165 minimum applies to office and commercial cleaning; specialty minimums may be higher. All figures are preliminary and subject to scope review.
Preliminary budgets in USD. Area-based estimates use the higher of the service minimum or the area calculation, with adjustments for condition. Window prices use glass area, not building area.

Routine cleaning and periodic maintenance serve different purposes. We help identify when a surface needs deeper attention and build that work into a practical schedule.
Pre-existing damage, permanent stains, and worn finishes may remain after cleaning. We discuss realistic outcomes before work begins.

A janitorial program follows scheduled cleaning tasks for agreed rooms and surfaces. A day porter provides defined support while a property is operating, such as restroom checks, restocking, litter rounds and attention to common areas. The proposal identifies staff hours and priorities; porter service does not automatically include maintenance trades or specialty projects.
Your proposal identifies the areas, tasks, and frequencies included. Typical scopes cover accessible surfaces, waste removal, restrooms, floors, and shared spaces. Interior appliances, high-level work, floor restoration, and other detail tasks should be listed separately when needed.
Two equally sized properties may require very different labor. Room layout, restrooms, furniture, occupancy, surface types, buildup, service frequency, and access all affect the work. The walkthrough establishes the actual scope so your proposal reflects the work your property needs.
We discuss access and scheduling during the assessment. Before-hours, after-hours, and daytime options depend on staffing and the property’s requirements. Sending an inquiry does not reserve a schedule.
The proposal specifies what MEI supplies and what the client supplies. Restroom paper goods, soap, liners, specialty chemicals, rentals, and unusual equipment requirements are addressed explicitly so expectations are clear.
Ask us for the documents required for your onboarding process, including a W-9 and current insurance information. Any project-specific insurance requirements are reviewed before a contract is finalized.
Tell us promptly about a missed task or concern. Clear communication allows us to review the issue, agree on a practical response, and clarify any changes needed to the cleaning scope.
Contact MEI to discuss the situation and availability. The source of water, site conditions, and safety requirements determine the appropriate response. This service requires a site-specific assessment.
Send us your property details or call to arrange a walkthrough. We then prepare a written proposal confirming the scope, schedule, exclusions, and terms before service begins.
Tell us about the property and the level of care you expect. We’ll start with a conversation and a walkthrough.
