IRS Authorized e-File Provider
We are an accounting firm built for one trade: commercial cleaning and janitorial. Worker classification, night-crew payroll, sales tax on cleaning services, floor equipment, and multi-site contracts — handled by people who already speak the language.
Federal figures under current law. Section 179 limits are indexed each year, and every one of these depends on your entity type, payroll, income, and state — which is exactly the work. We confirm each against your actual return before relying on it.
The problem
A generalist CPA files your return the same way they file a dentist's. That is how janitorial owners end up with a six-figure payroll assessment over workers they were told it was fine to 1099.
Paying crews as independent contractors is the single largest audit exposure in this industry. You set the schedule, the scope, and the supplies — that is an employee in most states. We fix classification before a labor department letter does it for you.
Janitorial and cleaning services are subject to sales tax in a long list of states — Texas, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Ohio and more. Contracts written without it mean you owe tax you never collected from the customer.
Auto scrubbers, burnishers, extractors, and vans each have their own depreciation story. Bundled into one 'equipment' number, you lose the Section 179 and bonus depreciation timing that matters most in a heavy buy year.
Cleaning a site in the next city or state can create payroll registration, local business licensing, and sales tax obligations. Contracts get signed long before anyone checks, and the filings pile up quietly.
Annual contracts billed up front, post-construction cleanups spanning a year end, and one-time strip-and-wax jobs all need the right revenue timing. Recognized all at once, you pay tax this year on work you will perform next year.
Every dollar of profit is hitting self-employment tax. An S-Corp election with a defensible reasonable salary usually pays for our entire fee in the first quarter.
What we do
Everything a commercial cleaning operator needs to stay compliant, stay profitable, and stop overpaying — under one roof.
Proactive, quarterly, and built for a labor-heavy business running crews across many buildings.
Federal, state, and local returns filed accurately and on time — for the business and for you personally, coordinated so nothing falls between them.
Monthly books closed by people who know what a case of liners costs and how a prepaid annual janitorial contract should hit the ledger.
Starting a cleaning company, or finally structuring the one you have been growing account by account? We handle the entity, the paperwork, and the accounts in one pass.
Money on the table
These are the line items we find missing on almost every commercial cleaning return that walks through the door. Each one is ordinary, necessary, and defensible — it just requires someone who knows the trade.
Find My Missed DeductionsHow it works
Send last year's return and a recent P&L. We come back with what was missed and roughly what it cost you.
One fixed monthly fee covering the services you actually need. No hourly billing, no surprise invoices for phone calls.
We rebuild the chart of accounts, fix the depreciation schedule, review worker classification, register where you owe, and file any elections that need to be made.
Monthly financials, quarterly planning calls, estimates handled, and a return that is finished long before the deadline.
Pricing
Three plans, a short list of add-ons, nothing custom. The plan decides what you get; add-ons only cover more volume, extra filings, or accrual books.

Client results
“We had thirty cleaners on 1099s because that is what the last guy set up. They walked us through converting to payroll, handled the voluntary correction, and we sleep at night now.”
“We were bidding buildings in two states and had no idea cleaning was taxable in one of them. They registered us, fixed the contracts, and we started collecting it instead of eating it.”
“Two auto scrubbers and a van sitting in one asset account on straight-line. They rebuilt the schedule and found years of deduction we never took.”
Almost never, and it is the biggest exposure in this industry. If you set the schedule, define the scope, and provide the supplies, they are employees under both IRS and most state tests. We help owners convert to payroll properly — often through a voluntary program that limits the back exposure.
In many states, yes. Texas, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Ohio and others tax janitorial and cleaning services, and the rules differ between routine cleaning, specialty work, and post-construction. We determine where you owe, register you, and make sure your contracts collect it instead of you absorbing it.
Commercial cleaning, janitorial, and closely adjacent building-service trades. That focus is the whole point — we are not learning your business on your dime, and the strategies we run are the ones that repeat across hundreds of labor-heavy service companies.
Yes. We are fully remote and file in all 50 states. Documents move through a secure portal, meetings happen by video or phone, and you can text your accountant directly.
It is the most common way clients arrive. We quote cleanup separately from ongoing work, bring the books current, and get delinquent returns filed. No lectures.
One flat monthly fee, quoted before you sign anything, based on transaction volume, entity count, and payroll headcount. Calls, texts, and questions are included — you will never get an invoice for asking us something.
Free review, no obligation, and a straight answer within one business day.
