How Often Should a Calgary Office Be Cleaned?
A tiered schedule you can adapt to your space, from daily touchpoints to quarterly deep work.

Quick answer
Most Calgary offices need washrooms, kitchens and touchpoints cleaned every working day, floors vacuumed or mopped two to five times a week, and deeper tasks like glass, carpets and high dusting monthly or quarterly. Higher foot traffic and winter salt push the schedule up.
There is no single right frequency. A five-person studio and a large call centre need different plans. What matters is matching task frequency to risk: shared surfaces and washrooms fast, floors and glass on a rhythm, deep work on a calendar.
Daily Tasks
- Washrooms cleaned and restocked
- Kitchen and break room counters, sinks and appliances wiped
- Touchpoints such as door handles, switches and shared equipment
- Garbage and recycling emptied
- Entry mats and high-traffic floors vacuumed
Weekly Tasks
- Full floor vacuum and wet mop
- Desk tops cleared and wiped on request
- Interior glass and partitions spot cleaned
- Dusting of ledges and shelves
- Fridge and microwave cleaned inside
Monthly and Quarterly Work
- Carpet extraction or deep clean
- Floor machine scrub and recoat for hard floors
- High dusting, vents and light fixtures
- Window and exterior glass detailing
- Upholstery and chair cleaning
Calgary Winters Change the Plan
Road salt and grit track in every day from November to April. Entry mats saturate, tile develops white residue and carpet wears faster. Add entry-way attention and more frequent hard floor cleaning in winter.
