Think about the cramped hallways of East High at 3:05 p.m., the multicolored swirl of sneakers and backpacks scuffing through polished linoleum, or the echoing laughter echoing down the stairwells at DSST Montview. Denver schools are hives of energy, curiosity, and, let’s be blunt, germs. The daily traffic of students, staff, and faculty means that schools are a silent battleground where hygiene, health, and first impressions are all on the line.
If you’re responsible for a Denver-area school, public, private, charter, or Montessori, here’s a hard truth: ordinary janitorial routines are rarely enough. Standard dusting and trash pickup won’t cut it when flu season hits Cory Elementary or when norovirus works its way through Hill Campus. You need a partner who is obsessed (in the good way) with spotless classrooms, gleaming cafeterias, sanitized gymnasiums, and safe, welcoming restrooms. That’s where Executive Cleaning Services steps in, with four decades of expertise, heart, and grit.
From the tightly-packed lecture halls on Auraria Campus to the art studios at Denver School of the Arts, school environments are not just buildings, they're living, breathing instructional ecosystems. A well-cleaned school is a silent ally in cultivating attention, health, and pride. But in a city like Denver, climate and culture introduce unique cleaning challenges:
High Altitude, High Foot Traffic: The dry Colorado air creates more dust than most local janitors bargain for, settling into HVAC systems, library shelves, and hard-to-reach nooks. Meanwhile, slush and grit from winter storms get tracked everywhere, from the entrance mats of South High to the polished gym floors of Northfield High.
Seasonal Sickness: RSV, flu, COVID, and the average cold are constant visitors. Crowded classrooms can turn into petri dishes overnight, making infection control far more than just a “nice to have.”
Allergy & Asthma Sensitivity: Local pollen, dust mites, and even classroom pets can trigger allergies or asthma. Schools in Park Hill and Cherry Creek serve children with every level of medical need, requiring custodial care with medical-grade thoroughness.
Visible Standards: Parents and educators are watching. When the school is sparkling, there’s trust, and enrollment follows reputation.
A real cleaning partner understands that "school cleaning" isn’t a single checklist. It’s science, commitment, and customization. Here’s a closer look at the specialized areas we handle:
Picture an average homeroom at Teller Elementary: desktops marked with crayons, fingerprints on door handles, snack crumbs wedged between seat backs. We focus on thorough daily disinfection of all high-touch surfaces, desks, chairs, whiteboards, door knobs, leaving classrooms not just tidy, but genuinely sanitized.
These high-use areas are notorious for germs and odor. We deep-clean toilets, sinks, tile surfaces, lockers, and floors, using EPA-registered disinfectants to outsmart everything from E. coli to mold. Our team ensures restrooms aren’t just passably clean, but immaculate, an essential for both comfort and health.
Sanitary code violations shut down cafeterias. Cross-contamination equals sick kids (and panicked PTO boards). Our services include comprehensive cafeteria sanitation, wiping down tables, counters, and kitchen equipment daily. We also manage trash, recycling, and food waste, keeping your facilities compliant and appetizing.
From floor mats stained with Monday’s dodgeball game to shared gym equipment coated with fingerprints, we prioritize sanitization and slip-free floors. Our HEPA-filtered vacuums and non-toxic floor cleaners are essential here, protecting both the kids and the finish on your hardwood.
Entryways are your school’s handshake. We handle dusting, vacuuming, and disinfecting in all common spaces, plus glass cleaning on office doors and trophy cases, crucial for presenting a welcoming, orderly campus to visitors and prospective families.
When you partner with Executive Cleaning Services for your Denver school cleaning needs, you’re not getting basic janitorial help, you’re securing a team of vetted, trained professionals with specialized expertise in educational settings.
What Sets Us Apart?
Denver is not a one-size-fits-all city: from the historic corridors of Denver Language School to the expansive campuses of Cherry Creek Schools and the intimate settings of Montessori on Blake, every institution has unique culture and needs. We’re not a faceless franchise; we know Denver. We know what a blizzard in March means for your floors, and how quickly the mud from City Park migrates into your corridors.
We’ve partnered with local districts, independent schools, charter systems, and even aftercare programs throughout the metro, including Aurora, Englewood, and Highlands Ranch, delivering service tailored to the particulars of each learning community.
We believe your school is a cornerstone of the community. Let’s keep it healthy together.
Research backs up what every Denver principal and custodian already knows: poor cleaning leads to higher absenteeism, faster spread of illness, and a drop in teacher and student morale. The CDC, EPA, and the Colorado Department of Public Health all stress the importance of frequent, expert cleaning and disinfection in keeping students in class, not at home with fevers.
Pain Points We Solve:
A school isn’t just a building; it’s the nest where Denver’s next generation grows. Clean buildings protect not just physical health, but also dignity and peace of mind. We know the pride parents feel dropping their children at McAuliffe International when the halls gleam, or the comfort teachers enjoy knowing their classrooms are as safe as possible.
We clean so you can focus on what matters: education, relationships, and community.
1. Experience You Can Trust: We’ve cleaned everything from busy urban school campuses to single-building private academies, from Lincoln Elementary to Regis Jesuit. No facility is too complex.
2. A People-First Culture: Our company is family-owned and woman-led, Ayxsa Moss built this business on dedication and fairness, and her values shape every team we send out.
3. No Franchise Complications: We’re not weighed down by franchise red tape or upsell pressure. You get direct, local service, and clear, fair pricing every single time.
4. Flexible, Responsive, Uncompromising: When sick days ravage your staff, when parent-teacher night is looming, or the fire marshal makes a surprise visit, we respond, adapt, and overdeliver.
We’re fully bonded and insured, and every cleaner is background checked and held to the highest standard.
Across Park Hill, Sunnyside, and Five Points, schools are more than their test scores, they’re reflections of their upkeep. Don’t let the dust of city life dim your school’s shine. Let us scrub away the distractions, so students and teachers can focus on learning, creativity, and growth.
Whether you manage a bustling high school campus near Washington Park, a close-knit K-8 academy in LoDo, or a district office in Lakewood, our team can customize the right solution for you.
