I started Burgos Cleaning Service in 2012 with $250 and a mop bucket. Fifteen years later, the job is still the same at its core: walk into a building after the people who run it have gone home, and leave it ready for them by morning.
What’s changed is the range of buildings. We clean offices, medical and dental practices, schools, plants and warehouses, retail space, and buildings that just came out of construction. We’re based in Hartford, and we only do commercial work, with no side jobs that pull a crew off your building.
Every Kind of Work, One Company
Here’s how the work breaks down.
The work that happens every week
- Janitorial services — set-schedule upkeep, from a few visits a week to every weeknight, plus a daytime attendant for busy lobbies.
- Office cleaning — desks, conference rooms, kitchens, and the after-hours lock-up that comes with them.
- Medical facility cleaning — medical offices, dental practices, and clinics, cleaned around patient hours.
- School cleaning — classrooms, gyms, cafeterias, and the long breaks when the deep work gets done.
- Industrial cleaning — the offices and break areas attached to plants and warehouses.
The work your floors and glass need on their own clock
These get scheduled when the building is empty and quoted on their own.
- Floor care — machine scrubbing, strip and wax, and scrub and recoat for hard floors.
- Carpet cleaning — extraction for traffic lanes and stains a vacuum can’t lift.
- Window cleaning — interior and exterior glass for low-rise buildings.
The work that comes once, then turns into something steady
Post-construction cleaning — dust, debris, stickers, and residue cleared so a new or renovated space is ready for people. When the contractors leave, the building still needs cleaning every week. That’s usually where we come in next.
Buildings We Already Know Our Way Around
Dental suites and specialty clinics. Law and accounting firms. Charter, private, and public schools. Manufacturing plants and distribution warehouses. Retail storefronts. Nonprofits. Tenant spaces fresh off a renovation. If your building isn’t on that list, ask anyway. Odds are we’ve cleaned something close to it.
What Stays the Same in Every Building We Clean
A dental office and a manufacturing plant need very different task lists, but every client gets these.
- You see the same faces. You get a consistent crew and a lead supervisor on your account. The people cleaning it learn where the problem spots are, which doors stick, and what your staff notices first.
- Somebody checks the work before you do. Our supervisors walk your building on their regular site visits and grade it line by line. Those grades add up to one number we can track over time, and every walk gets recorded. Anything that falls short is photographed, corrected, and looked at again until it’s right.
- Your keys and alarm codes are handled on purpose. Keys and alarm codes are collected when the account launches, through a controlled process. Each building then gets its own lock-up plan, set by its site supervisor, so closing up is done the same way every night.
- Everything is in writing. Before any work starts, you get a written scope. It lists the work, how frequently it happens, and anything priced as its own project.
- You’re covered. We carry general liability, umbrella, and workers’ comp coverage.
Four Buildings, Four Very Different Jobs
Four clients let us share their stories.
A public science center that couldn’t look tired
The Connecticut Science Center in Hartford is a busy public venue, full of families and school groups from opening to close. We ran a five-day deep clean there, then came back for a follow-up inspection to make sure the results held. They did.
“They did an awesome job! I really appreciate all the work.”
— Brendan, Facilities Manager
Connecticut Science Center case study
An office, showroom, demo lab, and warehouse under one roof
Flow Tech’s building combines offices, a demo lab, a display area for guests, and a warehouse. Each part wears differently, so one recurring plan covers all four, with two visits a week.
“I’ve definitely noticed an improvement. The entryway looked particularly clean when I came in this morning, and a coworker mentioned how clean the kitchen was.”
— Elana, Flow Tech
A medical practice where patients judge every surface
When a new contact at CT Asthma & Allergy’s Hamden clinic flagged missed daily tasks and a schedule clash with clinic staff, our supervisor was on site inspecting that same afternoon. We moved cleaning to after clinic hours and retrained the crew on the full scope.
“Thank you so much, I checked with the provider and she said that employees were commenting how clean it looked in Hamden today. I really appreciate your attention to this matter.”
— Terry, Facilities Supervisor
A community services building that couldn’t have a gap
When HARC’s previous cleaning contract turned over, its Hartford facility needed a partner who could step in without a gap. We now handle janitorial and floor cleaning there five days a week, Monday through Friday, with one lead supervisor as the point of contact.
“Burgos not only meets but exceeds our expectations. Any issue or concern is handled immediately. I would absolutely recommend them — with the right fit to your business needs.”
— Ramona, Director of Operations, HARC
Burgos Cleaning Service holds a 4.7-star Google rating.

Before You Call: What Facility Managers Usually Want to Know
Do you clean homes or apartments?
No. Burgos Cleaning Service is commercial only. Every crew we have works in businesses, practices, schools, and industrial buildings.
Can one company handle our nightly cleaning and our floor projects?
Yes. Recurring cleaning and project work like floor care or carpet cleaning can live under one company. Project work is quoted on its own, so your monthly price stays clear.
How do you figure out what we’d pay?
We don’t quote over the phone or during the walkthrough. We walk the building first, learn how it’s used, and then send a written proposal. To get a feel for the factors behind it, read our cost guide or try the cost calculator.
What happens if we’re not happy with a visit?
Tell Sophia, our client contact. She sends it to your site supervisor, who fixes it. The fix gets verified on an inspection round, and Sophia closes it out with you.
