Commercial cleaning across Greater Chicagoland

From active jobsite to ready-to-use space

Post-Construction Cleaning

The space is not ready when the trades leave. It is ready when the dust is gone and the punch list is closed. Cortex coordinates rough, final and touch-up cleaning around the project schedule, inspection and turnover date.
