Strata cleaning & building maintenance in Burnaby

Burnaby's newer towers often have concierge lobbies, gyms, lounges and multi-level parkades shared with retail tenants. We schedule lobby and elevator care around peak resident traffic, rotate through corridors floor by floor, and coordinate parkade and garbage-room work with the property manager so shared areas don't fall between the strata and the commercial owners.

Local conditions

High-rise towers bring heavy elevator traffic, busy parkades and garbage rooms serving hundreds of units, so small gaps in a cleaning schedule show quickly. Construction is ongoing around every town centre, and its dust and mud get tracked into nearby lobbies — especially in the wet months.

Metro Vancouver

Built around the wet season

Rain drives most strata cleaning problems in Metro Vancouver: grit in lobbies and elevators, saturated entrance mats, and moss and algae on walkways. Schedules tighten from fall to spring, with pressure washing booked before and after the wet months.

Process

How it works

  1. 01

    Site walkthrough

    We walk the building with a council member or the strata manager, zone by zone, noting traffic, finishes, access and current problem areas.

  2. 02

    Scope and frequency plan

    You get a written scope listing every area and how often it's cleaned, with a fixed price — ready for council review. We can present it at a council meeting.

  3. 03

    Onboarding

    We provide insurance documents and our WorkSafeBC details, confirm keys and fobs, and agree how residents are notified about noisy or disruptive work.

  4. 04

    Reporting and reviews

    Photo-documented condition reports, a direct contact for the council or manager, and seasonal walkthroughs to adjust the plan.

Pricing

How quotes are priced

Strata cleaning is quoted as a fixed monthly price for a written scope. What drives the price:

Before tendering, use our strata cleaning contract checklist so every bid is priced against the same scope.

  • Number of units, floors and common-area zones
  • Visit frequency for each zone
  • Amenities such as gyms, lounges, pools and guest suites
  • Parkade size and how often it's cleaned
  • Exterior walkways, courtyards and grounds
  • Periodic work like carpet extraction and pressure washing

FAQ

Strata Cleaning in Burnaby

Can you handle buildings where the strata and commercial owners share a parkade?

Yes. Shared parkades and loading areas are common in Burnaby's mixed-use towers. We confirm who is responsible for each area under your shared-facilities arrangement, then quote and report each owner's portion separately if needed.

How do you keep up with garbage and recycling rooms in large towers?

Garbage rooms in towers with hundreds of units need a set rotation — floors swept and mopped, bins and chute areas wiped down, odours dealt with — rather than occasional deep cleans. We set the frequency with the property manager based on unit count and pickup days.

Can you manage the extra dust and mud from nearby construction?

It's part of planning for Burnaby's town centres. While nearby sites are active we increase entrance, mat and hard-floor care and add glass and ledge dusting, then scale back once the construction moves on.

Can you present your proposal to our strata council?

Yes. We can attend a council meeting in person or by video to walk through the scope, frequencies and reporting, and answer questions.

Do you work with our strata management company?

Yes. We take direction from whoever the council designates — the strata manager, a council member or a caretaker — and fit into the manager's existing process for access, work orders and reporting.

What do your condition reports include?

Dated photos of cleaned areas, notes on anything that changed, and issues we noticed — leaks, damage, burnt-out lights, trip hazards — so the council has a record and can act quickly.

How much notice do residents get before parkade or pressure-washing work?

We agree on a notice period with the manager or council — about a week is common for parkade cleaning — and work section by section so residents always have somewhere to park.
