Equilux cleaning teams at work in a daycare, gym and office

Boutique & owner-run · Sydney

Walk in to a clean office every morning, without chasing anyone.

Office and commercial cleaning in Sydney for office managers, facilities teams and practice managers who have enough on their plate. Kitchens, bathrooms and desks done after hours, supplies topped up, and one person to call if anything’s missed. One less thing to worry about.

The same cleaners every visit, so you never have to re-explain your site.

Boutique & owner-run

A boutique cleaning company,
not a big corporation.

Equilux is small on purpose — owner-run and owner-operated. The person who quotes your job is the person accountable for it: no call centres, no hand-offs, no run-around.

We treat our cleaners how we treat your space — with care and consideration. Cleaning is personal.

One person to call

Message the owner directly. She knows your site and sorts it out — no ticket numbers.

Problems fixed quickly

Missed a bin or need an extra clean before a board meeting? No account managers or call centre queues.

Cleaners you recognise

The same small, trained crew each visit, so your team and building security know who’s coming in.

Our people

A boutique cleaning company, not a big corp — doing right by our people

We’re small on purpose. You deal with Greta directly, your cleaners are known by name, and we look after our people with the same care we bring to your space — paid above award wage, super on time, fair rosters, familiar faces and a direct voice. Good work follows from that: an office team you don’t need to worry about.

The invisible team: the people who make your workplace feel welcoming

Price & value

Easy to compare on price.
Harder on what’s behind it.

Every quote gives you a number, and the number should be simple to understand. What separates two similar prices is what sits behind them — ideally, cleaning is simply handled.

  • Reliability

    Signed in on site, worked through a checklist, photographed and reported back to you each month.

  • Assurance

    $20M public liability, workers compensation and WHS-compliant processes — certificates with your quote.

  • A good team

    Paid above award wage, trained on your site and police-checked, so the standard holds month after month.

FAQ

Questions? We've got answers.

Everything you need to know about commercial cleaning with Equilux.

Yes — we supply everything. All Equilux cleaners arrive with commercial-grade equipment and hospital-grade chemicals. You don't need to provide anything. If your site has specific requirements (certain chemicals not permitted, specialised equipment needed), let us know during the onboarding process and we'll accommodate.

Pricing is based on the size of your premises, type of facility (office, medical, strata, post-construction), cleaning frequency, and any specialist requirements. We provide a written, fixed-price quote after a free site inspection — no hidden fees, ever. Our quotes are transparent and broken down by scope so you know exactly what you're paying for.

Most offices do best with cleaning two to five times a week, depending on headcount, foot traffic and shared facilities like kitchens and washrooms. High-touch areas and washrooms benefit from daily attention. We'll recommend a tailored cleaning schedule after a free site inspection — and adjust it as your needs change.

A typical Equilux visit covers workstations and desks, meeting rooms, kitchens and break areas, washrooms, floors, bins, and high-touch points like door handles and switches. Every site gets a tailored checklist agreed up front, so you know exactly what's included — and we can add specialist services like infection control cleaning where needed.

Yes. After-hours office cleaning is one of our most popular arrangements — early mornings, evenings or weekends, so your team arrives to a fresh workspace and we never disrupt the workday. We're flexible on access arrangements and happy to work with building security requirements.

We specialise in offices and corporate spaces, medical and allied health facilities, strata common areas (lobbies, lifts, car parks), post-construction and builder's cleans, retail and hospitality venues, government and education facilities, daycare centres, gyms and fitness studios across Greater Sydney.

Yes. Every Equilux cleaner undergoes a police check, has verified Australian work rights, and is covered under our $20M public liability insurance policy. We also carry workers compensation insurance. Documentation is available on request for contracts that require it.

We give you a dedicated cleaner and send the same friendly face every visit. They get to know your space, your people and the little things you care about. If they're ever unwell or away, we'll let you know ahead of time and send someone we've personally briefed on your site.

Your cleaner works through a list made just for your space and takes before and after photos at the end of each visit. We're happy to share these with you anytime — and because we're owner-run, you can always talk to Greta directly if anything isn't quite right.

We just ask for 48 hours notice if you need to cancel or move a clean. Life and business happen, and we'll always work with you to find a time that suits. Frequent last-minute cancellations may attract a small fee, as our cleaners have set that time aside especially for you.

Yes. If you are not satisfied with any aspect of a clean, notify us within 24 hours and we will return to rectify the issue at no charge. Just send us a message with photos and we'll sort it. Your satisfaction is non-negotiable — we earn your business on every visit.

Fill in the quote request form on our website, or email us at info@equiluxcleaningco.com. We'll respond within 24 hours, arrange a free site inspection, and provide a written quote. Once approved, we can typically have your first clean scheduled within the week.

Absolutely. We work with facility managers and property groups who manage multiple sites across Sydney. We can provide consolidated reporting, a single point of contact, and consistent standards across all locations. Contact us to discuss a multi-site arrangement.
