Clean from the floor to the ceiling.

High dusting and ceilings from Continental.

Dust collects on beams, vents, light fixtures and ledges far above the floor, and eventually it shows. High dusting removes it and brightens the whole space.

We clean exposed structure, pipes and ducts, vents and diffusers, light fixtures, high ledges and signage, and ceilings in lobbies, atriums, warehouses and stores.

Add it to your cleaning program on a periodic schedule for a property that looks complete from top to bottom.

Where overhead dust collects

Dust settles on every horizontal surface above eye level: the tops of beams and exposed ductwork, pipe runs, light fixtures, diffusers, high ledges and the tops of signs. In warehouses and converted loft offices with open ceilings, that surface area is enormous. In atriums and tall lobbies there is less of it, but it is more visible, because daylight shows every layer on ledges and fixtures.

Vents and diffusers deserve special attention. Dust that collects around a diffuser shows as dark streaks on the ceiling tiles around it, which makes an otherwise clean space look neglected. Cleaning the diffuser and the surrounding tiles on the same visit removes the source and the stain together.

What sets the price of high dusting

High dusting is priced by the project or by the visit, built from crew hours and the equipment the job needs. Ceiling height is the first factor: work reachable with extension tools costs far less than exposed structure 30 feet up that calls for a lift. The area of overhead surface comes next, counting beams, ductwork, pipe runs, light fixtures, diffusers and high ledges.

Dust load and setting add to it. A Sparks warehouse that has gone years without overhead cleaning takes longer than a lobby on a quarterly schedule, and retail floors or occupied offices need merchandise and desks covered before work starts. The work is usually scheduled overnight or on a weekend, which shapes crew hours. A regular frequency, such as twice a year, keeps each visit shorter. At the property walkthrough we measure the heights and surfaces, then price the job in a written quote. Our facility services cost guide shows how periodic work like this sits beside the recurring lines in a yearly budget.
