Strata cleaning & building maintenance in Coquitlam
Coquitlam strata councils range from new Burquitlam towers with full amenity floors to Westwood Plateau townhouse complexes with private roads, mailbox kiosks and clubhouses. Towers need high-frequency interior programs; townhouse complexes need walkway care, amenity cleaning and seasonal pressure washing.

Local conditions
Hillside neighbourhoods on Westwood Plateau and Burke Mountain get more snow and ice than the rest of the city, and their complexes have long private roads, walkways and stairs to keep safe. In the town centres, new towers bring busy parkades and heavily used amenity spaces from the day residents move in.

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
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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 Coquitlam
Do you service townhouse complexes with clubhouses and amenity buildings?
Yes. Clubhouses, gyms, change rooms and meeting rooms get their own checklist, scheduled around bookings, alongside walkway, mailbox and exterior care for the rest of the complex.
Do hillside complexes on Westwood Plateau or Burke Mountain need a different winter plan?
Usually. Higher elevations see more snow and ice, so fall walkthroughs should cover gutters, drains and walkway surfaces before cold weather arrives, and interior entrances need extra care once grit and de-icer start getting tracked in.
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.
Can we check your WorkSafeBC status and insurance?
Yes. We provide a certificate of insurance and our WorkSafeBC account details so you can request a clearance letter. Here's why a clearance letter matters.
