Our technicians work from floor level or an approved three-step stool only. We do not use scaffolding, lifts, or elevated platforms.

On-Site Construction Contact Required

Coordinate With Your Project Team

A designated construction representative must be available when our cleaning team arrives and remain reachable throughout the cleaning.

View Contact Requirements

Please arrange for a project manager, general contractor, site supervisor, or other authorized representative from your construction team to be on-site when our cleaning team arrives.

This person should be familiar with the project and available to walk through the property with our team, confirm the areas ready for cleaning, answer questions, and address any concerns about unfinished work or construction materials.

The designated representative should remain reachable throughout the cleaning.

Property Readiness & Lockout Policy

If our team arrives and cannot safely perform the scheduled cleaning because required utilities are unavailable, construction areas are inaccessible, significant debris remains, or other undisclosed conditions prevent service, a 50% lockout fee will apply under the agreed booking terms.

Please contact CleanFlorida 48 hours before your appointment if the project schedule or property conditions have changed.
