HOA & condo common areas · Clifton Park, Albany & the Capital Region
HOA & condo common area cleaning — one crew your board can count on.
Lobbies, hallways, stairwells, elevators, clubhouses, fitness and laundry rooms, trash rooms and glass — cleaned on a written schedule, with repairs and maintenance from the same crew.
Common areas are what every owner sees
Residents judge an association by its front door, its hallways and its trash room. When those slip, the board hears about it at the next meeting.
Condominium associations and homeowners associations in the Capital Region usually run on a thin staff: a volunteer board, a management company juggling many communities, and a list of vendors that never quite coordinate. The cleaning vendor comes on Tuesday, the handyman comes when he can, the carpet company comes once a year if someone remembers to call, and the board ends up refereeing between them.
TPS Pro replaces that patchwork with one accountable crew. We clean the shared spaces on a written schedule, handle the floor care and seasonal deep cleans on the same contract, and fix what we find — a loose handrail, a scuffed wall, a dripping laundry-room faucet — instead of just reporting it.
Clifton Park and the Southern Saratoga County suburbs are home to dozens of HOA and condo communities, from townhouse associations with a clubhouse and pool to mid-rise condo buildings with lobbies and elevators. Albany, Colonie, Saratoga Springs and Troy add a mix of converted historic buildings and newer multifamily. We work across all of them.
Whether you are a board member looking for a better vendor or a community manager with a portfolio of associations, you get the same thing: a written scope, a named contact, a crew that knows your buildings, and paperwork — W-9 and certificate of insurance naming the association and management company — before the first visit.
Every shared space, on a schedule you approve
We walk the property with you, list every common area, and set a frequency for each. Here is what a typical association scope covers.
What the crew actually does in each space
Lobbies and entries. Entry glass and door hardware wiped, mats vacuumed and shaken out, floors vacuumed or mopped, furniture and ledges dusted, mailbox faces and directory boards cleaned. In winter we add salt and slush control at the door so ice melt doesn't track into the carpet.
Hallways and corridors. Carpet vacuumed edge to edge, hard floors swept and damp-mopped, baseboards and door frames spot-cleaned, light switches and unit-door hardware wiped, fingerprints and scuffs removed from walls where they wash off — and patched and painted where they don't.
Stairwells. Treads and landings swept and mopped, handrails wiped and disinfected, corners cleared of debris, and fire-exit doors kept clear. Stairwells are the space owners notice when they are dirty and never notice when they are clean.
Elevators. Cab walls, mirrors and stainless polished, call buttons and panels disinfected, floor vacuumed or mopped, door tracks vacuumed so grit doesn't jam the doors. Protective pads can be hung for move-in days on request.
Clubhouses and community rooms. Kitchenettes wiped down, appliances and sinks cleaned, tables and chairs wiped, restrooms cleaned and restocked, floors cared for — plus a reset after events the board books in advance.
Fitness rooms. Equipment touch points, benches and mats wiped with a disinfectant approved for the equipment, mirrors cleaned, floors vacuumed or mopped, trash emptied and wipes restocked if you supply them.
Laundry rooms. Machine tops and fronts wiped, lint areas and floors cleared, sinks and counters cleaned, and anything left behind reported to management rather than tossed.
Trash and recycling rooms. Floors swept and mopped, chute doors and hoppers wiped, spills cleaned up, and odor addressed at the source. This is the room that generates the most complaints — so it gets the most attention.
Windows and glass. Interior glass, entry doors, sidelights and partitions on every visit; larger glass cleaning scheduled seasonally.
Carpet care, floor care and deep cleans on the same contract
Routine cleaning keeps a building presentable week to week. Periodic work is what keeps the finishes from wearing out early.
Carpet care. Hallway carpet in a condo building takes a beating: every owner, guest, delivery and move crosses it. We vacuum on every visit and schedule hot-water extraction for traffic lanes and entries, with extra attention after a Capital Region winter of salt and slush. See our floor care page for how we handle extraction and spot treatment.
Hard floors. Lobby tile, clubhouse vinyl and stairwell treads get scrubbed, and finished floors get burnished, recoated or stripped and refinished on a schedule that matches traffic.
Seasonal deep cleans. Most associations benefit from a spring deep clean (salt residue, winter grime, high dusting, light fixtures, vents) and a fall reset before the holidays. We put these on the calendar up front so they happen whether or not someone remembers to ask.
Move-ins and turnovers. When a unit sells or turns over, we can protect elevators and hallways during the move and clean up after — and if the owner or association needs a unit turned, our make-ready crew can do that too.
Cleaning + maintenance + repairs
One vendor instead of five.
The same crew that cleans your common areas can patch and paint a scuffed corridor, fix a dripping faucet in the clubhouse, replace a broken light cover in the stairwell, and handle bigger projects like a lobby refresh or flooring replacement. You approve the work order; we do it and report back.
That means fewer vendors to insure, fewer keys and fobs in circulation, fewer invoices for the treasurer, and one phone number — answered 24/7 — when a pipe bursts on a Sunday night. Learn more about our property maintenance and renovation work.
Easy to oversee, easy to justify at the annual meeting
Boards change, managers change, and nobody wants to re-learn the vendor every year. We keep it simple.
A written scope the board can read. Every common area, every task, every frequency — on one document. When an owner asks what the cleaning contract covers, the board can answer in one page.
Visit notes when they matter. We tell your manager what we found: a damaged door closer, a leak under the laundry sink, bulk trash dumped in the trash room, a stained carpet section that needs extraction. Issues come with a recommendation, and repairs only happen with approval.
Predictable budgeting. Routine cleaning and scheduled periodic work are quoted up front, so the board can plan the year's budget. Extra work is quoted before it is done — no surprise invoices.
Paperwork on file. Certificate of insurance naming the association and the management company as certificate holders, W-9, and anything else your management company requires for vendor onboarding. See our vendor packet.

HOA & condo cleaning questions
How often should HOA or condo common areas be cleaned?
It depends on the number of units and how the spaces are used. Most condo buildings with a lobby and elevator need common-area cleaning at least weekly, and busier buildings two to five times a week. Townhouse associations with a clubhouse often need weekly service plus a reset after events. We recommend a frequency for each space after the walkthrough.
Do you work with community management companies?
Yes. We can work directly with a self-managed board or through your management company, and we can name both on our certificate of insurance. One contact handles every association in a manager's portfolio.
Can the same crew handle repairs and maintenance?
Yes. TPS Pro does property maintenance, painting and patching, minor plumbing and electrical fixes, flooring and renovation work, so issues found during cleaning can be fixed by the same company once you approve the work order.
How is HOA cleaning priced?
Every association is quoted individually after a walkthrough, based on the common areas, finishes, frequency and any periodic work like carpet extraction or seasonal deep cleans. You get a written scope and a price, usually within 24 hours, and extra work is always quoted before it is done.
Do you serve HOA communities in Clifton Park?
Yes. Clifton Park and southern Saratoga County have many HOA and condo communities, and we serve them along with Albany, Colonie, Saratoga Springs, Ballston Spa, Troy, Schenectady and the rest of the Capital Region.
Are you insured, and can you provide a COI for the association?
Yes. TPS Pro is bonded and insured. We send a W-9 and a certificate of insurance — with the association and management company listed as your documents require — before our first visit.
