Janitorial Services in Long Beach, California
Jazz It Up Services provides commercial janitorial services for buildings in Long Beach, the South Bay, Los Angeles, and northern Orange County. A janitorial contract with us is an ongoing program rather than a set of visits: a recurring schedule built around your building, restrooms held to a standard, disinfection when you need it, and one company accountable for how the place looks. We have been doing this since 2008. Call (562) 212-9072.
What Is the Difference Between Janitorial Services and Office Cleaning?
People use the two terms interchangeably, and most companies do not bother explaining the difference. Here is how we separate them.
Office cleaning
Office cleaning is the recurring clean itself. Restrooms, break rooms, trash, floors, glass, and common areas, done on a schedule. If you have an office suite and you need it cleaned three nights a week, that is office cleaning, and you can read what it covers on our office cleaning page.
Janitorial service
Janitorial service is the whole program for a building. It includes the recurring clean, but it covers more ground: multiple areas with different requirements and different frequencies, coordination with your property manager or tenants, disinfection on a schedule, and regular inspections with a single company answerable for the condition of the building over time.
The short version: if you are hiring someone to clean a space, that is office cleaning. If you are handing someone responsibility for a facility, that is janitorial.
What a Janitorial Program With Us Covers
A janitorial contract with Jazz It Up Services is a full program for your building, not a fixed checklist. Here is what it covers.
A schedule built around your building
We start by working out what each area of your facility actually needs and how often. Restrooms and break rooms in a busy building are on a different clock than a records room or a rarely used conference space. You get a written scope that says what gets done, where, and how often, so nobody is guessing later about what was included.
Restrooms held to a standard
Restrooms decide what people think of your building, and they are the first thing that slips when a crew is short on time. We scope restrooms with enough time to actually do them, and they are the first thing we check when we inspect.
Common areas, entries, and everything people touch
Lobbies, hallways, elevators, stairwells, break rooms, and conference space. Interior glass and entry doors kept clear of prints. Door handles, push plates, light switches, and shared surfaces wiped and disinfected. These are the details that decide whether a building reads as looked after.
Disinfection and electrostatic spraying
For buildings that need more than surface wiping, we offer electrostatic disinfectant spraying. The equipment charges the disinfectant so it wraps around surfaces and reaches spots a cloth misses. It is useful for high touch areas and shared spaces, and it can run on a schedule or come in after an illness moves through a floor.
Carpet cleaning within the program
For clients on a janitorial contract, carpet cleaning is handled as part of the program on a schedule that fits the building, rather than as a separate standalone job.
One point of contact
You call us and you reach people who have walked your building. Not a national dispatch line, not a ticket queue. When something needs to change in the scope, we change it.
Inspections and quality control
This is the part that comes straight out of Jasmine's years running cleaning at LAX and John Wayne. Airport terminals get inspected against a written standard, and the only way to survive that is to catch your own problems before anyone else does. We run our buildings the same way. The goal is that you never have to be the one who notices.
What We Do Not Do
We do not do specialty floor work. Stripping, waxing, and buffing are a different trade with different equipment, and we would rather tell you that than take the job and do it badly. If your floors need that kind of work, we will flag it during the walkthrough so you can plan for it separately.
Carpet cleaning we do handle, but as part of a cleaning contract rather than as a one off. Routine floor maintenance, meaning vacuuming, sweeping, mopping, and entry mats, is part of every program we run.
We also do not clean private residences.
Facilities We Provide Janitorial Services For
We work with commercial property. That includes multi tenant office buildings, corporate offices, medical and professional buildings, apartment communities, educational facilities, warehouses and industrial space, and recreational facilities.
If your building needs someone on site during business hours rather than only after close, that is day porter service, and it is often paired with a janitorial program rather than chosen instead of one.
How Janitorial Pricing Works
We do not price janitorial work per square foot, and we would be careful with any company that does it over the phone.
Square footage tells you almost nothing about what a building takes. Two buildings the same size can differ by hours per night depending on restroom count, tenant traffic, trash volume, and what condition the last company left things in. A per square foot rate is a guess dressed up as a number, and when the guess comes in low, the crew simply does not get the hours to do the work.
So we walk the building with you first. We look at every area, count what actually has to be serviced, ask what is going wrong under your current arrangement, and find out what matters most to you and your tenants. Then we build the scope and the hours honestly, and the price comes from that.
You typically have the quote within about 24 hours of the walkthrough. The walkthrough costs nothing and there is no pressure afterward.
Switching From Another Janitorial Company
Most people who call us already have a cleaning company. They are not calling because they want a new vendor. They are calling because the restrooms are not right, nobody answers the phone, or the crew that started strong six months ago is now doing half the job.
If that is where you are, a few things worth knowing.
Check your current agreement for the notice period before you do anything else. Thirty days is common. Knowing that number tells you what your timeline actually looks like.
We can walk your building while you are still under contract. There is nothing wrong with getting a real scope and a real number in hand before you make a decision, and it costs you nothing to find out.
When we take over a building that has been under serviced, the first few weeks usually include catch up work to get things back to a baseline. We tell you that up front and build it into the plan rather than pretending a building resets itself on day one.

Common Questions About Janitorial Services
Have Us Walk Your Building
If your building is not being taken care of the way it should be, have us come look at it. We will tell you what it honestly needs, what that costs, and whether we are the right company for it. Sometimes the answer is that your current company just needs to be held to their scope, and we will tell you that too.
