Commercial cleaning and janitorial services in Austin
Cleaning that happens whether or not anyone’s watching
Most facilities don’t have a cleaning problem during business hours. They have one at 10pm, when the managers have gone home and nobody’s left to check the work. That’s the shift we cover, and the reason our clients don’t have to.
BrightWorks Facility Services is an owner-run commercial cleaning and janitorial company based in Austin, Texas. We provide nightly and scheduled cleaning under contract for offices, childcare centers, schools, medical and dental offices, gyms and warehouses, across Central Texas from Temple to Kyle and Buda, and Marble Falls to Elgin. Recurring cleaning starts at $750 a month, with one-year contracts (as short as six months) and your price locked for the full term.
Looking for office cleaning, daycare cleaning or medical office cleaning? It’s the same owner, the same standards and the same monthly report, whatever kind of building you run.

What you get
- A consistent crew who knows your building — not whoever the franchise sent this week
- A scope built for your building, not a template
- Consumables tracked and restocked
- Keys and alarm codes held only by our owner and your assigned crew. If a crew member leaves, we collect their keys and ask you to change your code
- The 5-10-15 Report every month, including anything we got wrong
- And a group text with your account manager and the owner. Text a photo, and anything missed gets fixed on the next shift. Special requests get a reply within 2 hours during business hours

How the 5-10-15 Report works
On the 5th, the crew that cleans your building reports what they saw. On the 10th, we walk your building and check their work ourselves. On the 15th, you get it in writing: what you raised, what we did, what’s still open, and anything we got wrong. See how it works →

Starting with us
We walk your building and ask a lot of questions. You get a firm quote built on what we actually saw. We usually start about two weeks after you sign, sooner when the situation calls for it, and you don’t have to manage the handoff from your current cleaner. See what switching looks like →
Products, keys and paperwork
We lean toward green, low-toxic products for everyday cleaning. Where something needs disinfecting, like restrooms and high-touch surfaces, we use a product that’s actually a disinfectant. Not every popular cleaner is; plenty of them just clean and smell nice. Have a product preference? Tell us and we’ll switch.
We bring our own supplies and equipment in most cases and work out the details for your building during the walkthrough. Paper towels, toilet paper and soap can come from us or from you; it changes your price, so we’ll ask.
Keys and alarm codes are held only by our owner and the crew assigned to your building. If a crew member leaves, we collect their keys and ask you to change your code.
We carry general liability insurance of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate, plus workers’ comp. Setting us up as a vendor? Request our certificate of insurance and W-9 →
Add the Monthly Handyman Plan
Most buildings have a list of small repairs nobody gets to. Add four hours a month of handyman work, from $450, with the same contact and the same monthly report as your cleaning. Three-month minimum, then month to month. See the Monthly Handyman Plan →
Who we do this for
- Childcare centers and private and charter schools
- Medical and dental offices
- Gyms and family entertainment
- Warehouses and flex space
- Offices and coworking spaces
- Property managers
“Everyone can clean, but not everyone can be reliable. These guys are always on schedule…”
Cris & Monica H., Google review
Our first client, an early childhood center in Cedar Park, is still with us more than three years later, paying the same price they paid when we started. Most of our clients came to us after going through several cleaning companies.
What affects your price
Every quote is built by hand. Your price depends on the size and layout of your building, how many nights a week we clean, where you’re located, and what time we can start. A building we can clean at 6pm is easier to staff than one we can’t get into until midnight. We walk your building before we price it.
Recurring cleaning starts at $750 a month. For a budget range, try our cost estimator, or read our 2026 guide to commercial cleaning costs in Austin. Your firm quote comes after we walk your building.

Common questions
How soon can you start?
Usually about two weeks after you sign, sooner when the situation calls for it.
How often should an office be cleaned?
Busy offices are usually cleaned five nights a week; smaller or quieter offices often need fewer. Fewer nights cost less in total but more per visit, because each clean has more to catch up on. We’ll recommend a schedule after we walk your building.
How long is the contract?
Most run one year with your price locked for the full term. We can go as short as six months, and if we don’t do what we said, you can leave without penalty.
Is janitorial service taxed in Texas?
Yes. Texas charges sales tax on janitorial services, so expect 8.25% on top of the price in Austin and most of Texas.
Our guarantee: if we don’t do what we said, you can leave. No penalty.
