Frequently Asked Questions
In Construction Cleaning, the cleaning company is required to hold the same insurances as other vendors on the construction site. Most commonly to contract for the final clean scope you need,
$1 million in General Liability
$ 1 million Workers Compensation
BUT, you can bid projects without having this insurance in place (roughly $2,500 annual) , then once you are awarded the final clean contract, you have your insurance agent put the policy in place. Don’t forget worker’s compensation is usually a 1 time annual payment. Your insurance certificate should have limits equal to ours, CCP needs these limits to Be Qualified With General Contractors, not to contract, but just to receive invitations to bids.
Bonding is irrelevant in post construction cleaning. The GC will rarely ask for a cleaning company to purchase a bond. (Bidding or Performance) This is not janitorial services and you are not working for a property management company(Jones Lang Lasalle)
We have jobs located all over the United States. You tell us where you work, and we will present you with local job opportunities close to you. If your company can clean different regions, or you have different mobilization points, let us know. We will present more projects to your company if we know you can make a site visit.

This form will not guarantee you a site visit with a superintendent looking for a price, it will only allow CCP to know who your company is and where you can work.
To become a CCP Member and reserve rights to your working region, you have to pay a quarterly fee. We guarantee your company 2 site visits per quarter, and every request that we receive to price a final cleaning will go to you.
CCP will only work with 1 company per job, we will only connect 1 company with the superintendent and submit only 1 proposal per job. Once we send you the contacts and project details, we will not share the information with any other company. It is possible other cleaning companies may be interested in the job, but they will have no connection with Construction Clean Partners.
CCP will email you everything you need; the project name, site contact information (superintendent and project manager), the plans (if we have them), an estimated contract price, date the project needs to be completed, when the site visit is needed, an approval statement to bid the project, the job distance, as well as a description of what the project is.
We will also deliver you a sample scope that may need to be edited after you make a walkthrough.
No, a site visit is not necessary, but highly recommended by the project manager. It is better for everybody if you make a site visit before we finalize and submit a proposal to the general contractor. The site visit allows you to see the conditions of the project, and alter your price as needed; maybe the building is already neat, and your proposal price can be lower. The site visit allows you to meet the superintendent face to face, which increases the chance of being awarded.
While low price is usually the contract award determinator, people also work with companies they like and know.
CCP will estimate the cleaning value based on the type of construction project and square footage of the floor plans, .25 cents per square foot and $125 per unit cleaned.
We share our estimated contract value in all project detail notifications. You may need to adjust your bid price after making a site visit and seeing the conditions first hand.
You can submit your own proposal to the project manager and copy info@constructioncleanpartners.com. Or you can email it us and we can submit the bid on your behalf( while we copy you on the proposal submittal email). You can use your own proposal or a CCP proposal template.
Either way your cleaning company contracts with and invoices the General Contractor directly, and CCP earns a commission from your cleaning company.
The General Contractor awards the final cleaning contract. Once your bid is accepted and the project is awarded act, you need to submit the standard documents like insurance, certified payroll, and invoicing directly to the general contractor.
CCP will also send accounts receivable emails to the general contractor to help us get paid quicker.
You’re profit always comes first, and we would never expect to make more than you do on a project.
Our guarantee is simple: Your profit will be at least double our commission, or you owe us nothing. (Your profit will usually be much more than this).
You do not pay us until we win a contract together. CCP only earns a commission if you are awarded a job contract and earning money.
We base our estimated price on 25 cents per square foot. If the square foot and price do not equal this amount, we have adjusted the price based on a project manager comment or past awarded jobs similar to this estimate. Our estimate is rarely approved and determine your best and lowest price for us to be awarded a contract.
