Janitorial Services in Indianapolis
Consistent Nightly and Recurring Cleaning for Central Indiana Facilities
The basics of janitorial work are simple. The trash gets emptied, the restrooms get cleaned and restocked, the floors get vacuumed, the glass at the front door gets wiped down before your first customer walks through it. Any company can do that well on the first night.
The hard part is night two hundred.
It’s the story we hear on almost every walkthrough: the cleaning company started strong, then quietly got worse. The crew changed. The detail work stopped happening. Nobody told you. You just started noticing dust on the blinds and an empty soap dispenser in the lobby restroom. Indy Cleaning Solutions was built around that problem. We are a locally owned, family-operated janitorial company with the crews and equipment to handle large multi-building accounts, and owners close enough to the work to notice when something slips before you do. To meet the owners, visit our About page.
We have been cleaning commercial facilities across the Indianapolis metro for ten years. We are not a franchise. When you call, you reach the people who own the company and answer for the crew in your building.

What Janitorial Service Actually Covers
“Janitorial” and “commercial cleaning” get used interchangeably, and the difference matters when you are budgeting.
Janitorial service is recurring maintenance cleaning on a set schedule: nightly, three times a week, weekly, or every other week. It is the ongoing work that keeps a building from ever getting dirty in the first place. Trash, restrooms, breakrooms, vacuuming, mopping, dusting, high-touch disinfection, supply restocking. It is priced as a monthly contract because it happens on a fixed rhythm.
Commercial cleaning generally refers to the deeper, less frequent project work: carpet extraction, strip and wax, high dusting, window cleaning, construction cleanup, and post-event turnarounds. Those are scheduled periodically or done as one-time projects, priced per job.
Most facilities need both, and we provide both. If you want daily or weekly upkeep, you are on the right page. If you are looking for a one-time deep clean or a specialty project, our commercial cleaning page covers that in more detail.
Our Janitorial Services
Every account gets a written scope of work built from a walkthrough of your building. These are the services that scope is assembled from.
Nightly and Recurring Cleaning
This is the core of a janitorial program: the same crew, in your building on the same schedule, working from the same written checklist every visit. We run schedules from five nights a week down to every other week, and we set the frequency by how your building is used.
A standard recurring visit includes:
We also build rotating detail work into the schedule — vents, baseboards, high dusting, partition walls, interior windows — each on a defined cycle, so it gets done instead of waiting until someone complains.
Restroom Sanitation and Supply Management
People judge a cleaning program by its restrooms, and restrooms are the first place a company that cuts corners shows it. We treat them as the top priority.
On consumables, we are flexible. Some clients want us to source, stock, and manage the whole supply program. Others already buy through a distributor and just want the dispensers kept full. Either works, and we will tell you which one saves you money.
Breakroom and Kitchen Cleaning
After restrooms, breakrooms are the next space where most unhappy customers call us seeing if we can help. Ours get real attention: tables and chairs wiped and sanitized, counters and backsplashes cleaned, sinks scrubbed, appliance exteriors degreased, microwave interiors cleaned, trash pulled and containers sanitized on rotation, and floors swept and mopped, including under and behind tables where crumbs collect.
Routine Floor and Carpet Care
Day-to-day floor care is part of every janitorial scope. Vacuuming, dust mopping, damp mopping, spot treatment of spills, and entry mat service to catch grit before it gets tracked across the building. Done consistently, this is what protects the floor itself, because the abrasive soil that destroys carpet fiber and hard-floor finish is the soil left sitting on the surface for weeks.
When your floors need more than routine maintenance, we handle hot water extraction, low-moisture encapsulation, strip and wax, and high-speed burnishing in-house, with our own equipment and crews. Many of our janitorial clients fold periodic floor restoration into their contract, so it happens on schedule without a separate bidding process every year. You can see the full range of what we do on our floor maintenance page.
Disinfection and High-Touch Sanitation
Every recurring visit includes disinfection of the surfaces people touch most, using EPA-registered products applied with the dwell time the label requires. That is the step most crews skip, and without it, “disinfecting” is just wiping. We use HEPA-filtered backpack vacuums in facilities where airborne dust and allergens are a concern, and color-coded microfiber throughout to prevent cross-contamination between areas.
For facilities that need broader coverage — medical suites, schools, daycares, fitness centers, or any building going through a seasonal illness spike — electrostatic spray disinfection is available on request, and green cleaning products can be substituted throughout your scope.
Day Porter Support
Some buildings cannot wait until 6 p.m. High-traffic lobbies, medical waiting rooms, dealerships, schools, warehouses and event-driven facilities need someone on site during the business day to keep restrooms stocked, handle spills as they happen, reset conference rooms, and keep common areas presentable while the building is full of people.
We provide day porter staffing alongside nightly janitorial service, and the two work well together: the porter keeps the building presentable while it is occupied, and the night crew handles the deeper work after everyone leaves. Learn more about our day porter services.
At one account that we serve, our porter is forklift certified and helps with a variety of tasks including taking out trash at a 200,000+ square foot manufacturing site. They also manage refreshing the bathrooms along with other daily tasks to keep the site fresh throughout the day.

Facilities We Clean
We provide janitorial services throughout Indianapolis and the surrounding communities for:
We clean single-suite professional offices and we clean multi-building accounts of well over 100,000 square feet. We have the crews and equipment for a complex account, and the owners still know your building by name.
How Our Janitorial Program Works
1. A Real Walkthrough, Not a Phone Quote
We come to your facility and walk it with you. We look at square footage, floor types, restroom count, traffic patterns, and the specific things bothering you about your current service. Quoting a janitorial contract off a floor plan is how buildings end up underserviced. The number looks fine, and the scope was never realistic.
2. A Written Scope of Work
You get a written scope that spells out what gets done, how often, and on what rotation: nightly tasks, weekly tasks, monthly tasks, quarterly tasks. This is the document that protects you. When a cleaning company underbids a job, the shortfall shows up as tasks quietly dropping off the list, and without a written scope there is nothing to point at. With one, the conversation is simple.
3. Onboarding and Early Inspections
We typically start within about two weeks of a signed agreement, depending on the size of the account and crew scheduling. We inspect your building in person after the first few cleans, while habits are still forming and small problems are easy to correct. In the first two weeks the fixes are usually small — a dispenser that is missed, a trash can that gets overlooked — which is exactly why we inspect early. Once the account is running the way it should, inspections typically move to a quarterly cadence, and we will come out any time in between if something needs attention. The exact schedule for inspections will be customized on an account by account basis, as some accounts may need more frequent formal inspections. You will not be routed through a national call center to get that visit.
4. Staff You Can Have in Your Building
Our janitorial cleaners are W-2 employees of Indy Cleaning Solutions, not subcontractors. Every employee is background checked and trained on our procedures before working an account. We carry $2,000,000 in aggregate general liability coverage along with full workers’ compensation and commercial auto insurance, and we provide certificates of insurance to your building or property manager on request.
This is worth asking about when you compare bids. A large share of janitorial work in this market is performed by franchisees or subcontracted crews, which means the company you signed with is not the company in your building at 9 p.m. With us, it is.
5. Straightforward Agreements
Our janitorial agreements run annually with a thirty-day cancellation provision. If the service stops performing, you are not trapped. We keep accounts by earning them every month. One of our largest and oldest accounts has been with us since 2018.

What Do Janitorial Services Cost in Indianapolis?
What Do Janitorial Services Cost in Indianapolis?
Most cleaning companies will not put numbers on a website. We think that wastes everyone’s time, so here is an honest range for the Indianapolis market.
Recurring janitorial service in the Indianapolis metro generally runs between $0.12 and $0.20 per square foot per month for a standard office at a typical service frequency. Medical and clinical space runs higher because the protocols and frequency are more demanding. Warehouse and industrial space usually runs lower per square foot, because open floor plans clean efficiently, though the total contract is often larger simply because the buildings are bigger.
Some representative monthly ranges:

These figures are a general market range for planning purposes only. They are not a quote and not a guarantee of price. Every building is different, and the things that move a janitorial number up or down (restroom count, floor type, traffic volume, security requirements, how much detail work is built into the rotation) are things we can only assess in person. Your actual price is determined after a walkthrough of your specific facility.
For reference, a 3,000 square foot professional office in Indianapolis that we service once a week runs about $625, right within the range above.
A word on comparing bids: two companies can quote the same rate per square foot and deliver completely different service, because one is cleaning restrooms nightly and rotating detail work weekly while the other is emptying trash and running a vacuum. Compare the written scope, not the rate. If a bid comes in dramatically below the others, the difference is almost always labor hours, and you will feel it by month three.
