High-reach HEPA dusting for rafters, ductwork, lights, and piping to reduce contaminants and support safety and compliance.

Infrastructure & High-Level Cleaning in Metro Detroit

Dust-Free Ceilings, Trusses, Vents & Utilities—Where Problems Start (and Most Cleaners Stop)

Above the normal line of sight is where performance and perception quietly drift: dust halos on light lenses, debris on cable trays, residue on exposed ductwork, cobwebs in atriums, and film on signage and structural steel. These deposits fall to the spaces below, dulling finishes, fueling odors, and increasing allergy complaints. Maven Commercial Cleaning’s Infrastructure & High-Level Cleaning program removes soils safely and systematically from elevated and difficult-to-access areas across Detroit, Southfield, Novi, Troy, and throughout Macomb, Oakland, and Wayne counties.

What We Clean Up High (Safely, With the Right Gear)

Every site begins with a live, on-site assessment—never virtual—to map access, elevations, and surface types. Then we create a zone-by-zone plan with the proper method and access equipment (telescopic HEPA tools, scaffolds, lifts, or rope access where appropriate).

• Ceilings, Trusses & Open Plenums
  • HEPA high/low dusting of bar joists, beams, purlins, and deck panels to capture—not scatter—particulates.
  • Removal of cobwebs, construction residue, and loose debris that drops onto products and floors.
• HVAC Ducts, Vents & Returns (Exteriors)
  • Detail cleaning of grilles, registers, diffusers, and duct exteriors to cut recirculating dust and visible halos.
  • Perimeter wipe-downs around diffusers to eliminate “smoke ring” staining.
• Lighting, Lenses & Fixtures
  • Dry dusting and lens cleaning for improved illumination and camera readability.
  • Care for pendant fixtures, can lights, and track systems without damaging finishes or wiring.
• Overhead Signage, Banners & Wayfinding
  • Dust removal and face cleaning so lettering reads crisp from the floor.
  • Hardware wipe-downs (stanchions, wires, clips) that often harbor dust clumps.
• Cable Trays, Ladder Racks & Conduit Runs (Exteriors)
  • Controlled anti-static dusting to prevent dislodging debris into sensitive areas.
  • Device-safe methods near badge readers, sensors, and cameras.
• Atriums, Clerestories & Skylights (Interior Surfaces)
  • Glass and frame dusting/wipe for brighter, cleaner light shafts.
  • Debris removal from ledges that feed visible dust streaks below.

Why High-Level Cleaning Changes Everything Below

• Air Quality & Odor: Capturing particulate at the source reduces fallout on desks, displays, and floors—and cuts musty smells from dusty lenses and vents.
• Appearance: Fewer dust streaks on walls and fewer “mystery flakes” on products or workstations.
• Safety & Compliance: Less debris around lights and fixtures; improved lumen output in corridors and production aisles.
• Efficiency: Cleaner returns and lenses support HVAC and lighting performance, potentially reducing energy load.

Access Methods & Safety Controls

We match access to your space and hours, with a written Job Hazard Analysis (JHA) and site-specific safety plan:

• Telescopic HEPA tools for 20–35 ft reaches without lifts where feasible.
• Scissor/boom lifts with certified operators; barricades, spotters, and pedestrian routing.
• Scaffold towers for atriums and long dwell tasks; toe boards and harnessing where required.
• Rope access (select sites) with IRATA/SPRAT-qualified partners when lifts aren’t possible.
• Lockout/Tagout & access coordination around motion sensors, conveyors, or production equipment.

Methods & Chemistry (Surface-Safe, Low-Disruption)

• HEPA capture for dust—not push-and-fall methods that resoil the building.
• Anti-static and residue-controlled wipes on metals and plastics to reduce re-attraction.
• pH-appropriate cleaning on painted deck, powder coat, anodized metals, and acrylic glazing.
• Low-odor options for occupied environments (schools, healthcare, open offices).

Scheduling That Works With Your Operation

• After-hours or weekend windows for lift/scaffold work in busy corridors or production zones.
• Phased passes (quadrants, bays, or floors) to minimize disruption.
• Pre- and post-project cycles around renovations or inventory counts to control construction dust and presentation.

Detroit Seasonality: Plan for Real-World Soils

• Winter: Salt and road dust spike particulates—add high-level passes near entries and return runs.
• Spring: Pollen and construction season; skylight and lens resets improve brightness.
• Summer: Humidity can bind dust—focused HEPA work prevents streaking and clumping.
• Fall: Leaf debris near clerestories/vents; pre-winter reset for clean starts before salt season.

QA, Documentation & Communication

• Digital checklists by elevation zone (trusses, vents, lighting, signage), time-stamped.
• Supervisor inspections for particulate reduction and visual uniformity (no missed bands).
• Issue log noting failing lenses, loose banners, or air leaks around diffusers—flagged for facilities.
• Optional photo notes (non-sensitive areas) to verify results and plan cadence.

Integration With Your Facility Program

High-level results hold longer when layered with:

• Scheduled Janitorial (nightly/weekly) to prevent re-settling on surfaces below.
• High-Traffic Corridor Care for ongoing dust control.
• Technology Suite Cleaning to keep particulates out of intakes near IDFs/NOCs.
• Deep Cleaning (carpet extraction, tile/grout, vent/lens detail) to remove reservoirs.

Why Metro Detroit Chooses Maven

• Local, responsive, deadline-reliable teams with certified access capability.
• Fully vetted, uniformed W-2 staff—not revolving unknowns at height.
• On-site quotes and transparent, line-item scopes with clear safety plans.
• A “Truly Clean” standard focused on IAQ, presentation, and risk reduction.

FAQs

How often should high-level areas be cleaned?
Most facilities benefit from semiannual high-level passes. Dusty/industrial-adjacent sites or showrooms under strong lighting often add quarterly cycles. We’ll right-size frequency after an on-site assessment.

Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, for many zones using telescopic HEPA tools and controlled perimeters. For lift or scaffold work, we typically schedule after-hours or weekends and set barricades and spotters for safety.

Will cleaning overhead make a mess below?
Our process uses HEPA capture and top-down sequencing with floor recovery. We stage protection where needed and coordinate a final pass on surfaces beneath the work zone, so you reopen clean.
