Importance of Security
Hire Correctly
Janitors must be hired with care. Criminal backgrounds should be checked and references called. Regardless of past experience doing cleaning, the hire must be a responsible adult without any drug or alcohol problems, completely honest, and comfortable with all the cleaning duties, including restroom cleaning. They should be willing to be trained and willing to use building alarm systems and security protocol. I never use temporary workers for night janitors. Once you have a good person on the job, the policies that the contract cleaning company has and enforces on their janitors are what will then keep the client’s office secure.
Security with Building Keys
- The keys are never to be labeled with the name or address of the building or company. Label with color, number or letter codes only. This way, if the keys are ever lost, they cannot be used by an unauthorized finder.
- Keys should be kept on metal rings and never loose.
- The key ring should be carried on a belt clip or sturdy pocket of the janitor, never in a purse and never set down off of the janitor’s body. Many doors are self-closing and self-locking. Setting the keys down invites the janitor locking himself away from his keys.
- Any damaged or lost key is to be reported immediately to the manager.
- When not on the job, the key ring should be kept in a safe, secure place.

This letter will serve to introduce and recommend Ability Maintenance Service of Mission Hills, owned and operated by Mr. Ralph Temps. My company has employed the services of Ability Maintenance regularly for 4 years. I own an audio post-production facility that houses costly and delicate electronic recording equipment. The janitorial crew cleans my recording rooms professionally and with the utmost care. I have been very pleased with the thoroughness and efficiency demonstrated by Mr. Temps’ employees, and I plan to continue using his services for as long as I am in business.”
Since August, Ralph Temps and Ability Maintenance have been doing an excellent job servicing our recording studio. I have many special requirements and specific instructions for cleaning the building and Ability has been very responsive – I know I don’t have to give instructions more than once. Although each of the studios is outfitted with sensitive (and valuable) recording equipment, Ability has proven to be competent and trustworthy in working around this equipment. I have no reservations about leaving delicate microphones out or equipment set up when Ability is coming in...”
We established our Chatsworth location in July of 2014, and I hired Ability Maintenance Service shortly thereafter to be in charge of cleaning our place and restocking supplies. This office is 6,888 square feet (mostly carpet) and cleaning up after messy software developers can be a challenge. However, I have had exactly zero problems with Ability’s services. Mr. Temps, the man who gave us our initial quote and went on to be our point of contact, continues to deliver on his promises and to be fair and punctual. He and his team always do a great job...”

Ability Maintenance does a complete janitorial service for us including carpet cleaning, window cleaning, restroom cleaning and delivery of restroom supplies. They are professional and reliable. We are happy to highly recommend them to anyone needing office cleaning services.”
Just a note to thank you and Ability Maintenance Service for your consistent, quality office cleaning. It’s not often one can maintain such a successful business relationship for seven years as we have. Your cleaners have always been courteous, professional and quick to respond to our needs. I would be happy to recommend Ability Maintenance to anyone needing a top-notch janitorial service.”

I enthusiastically endorse Ability Maintenance Service (14844 Hagar Street, Mission Hills, CA 91345, 818.365.8861) with whom we have had a nearly ten-year relationship. They have proven extremely reliable and conscientious, and offer very reasonable rates. We also appreciate the fact that they use safe and biodegradable products.

I am very pleased with the services provided by Ability Maintenance. The person that cleans our office does more than just get things clean, he makes them sparkle! My work day gets off to a great start when I walk in and the office smells fresh, there is no sign of trash, and the floors and surfaces are gleaming. We recently expanded our business to a new, larger location and it is important to us to have proper care and maintenance of our brand-new carpeting, floors, and furnishings...
It is important to us to provide a clean and sanitary environment for our employees, clients, and visitors to our office. Ability Maintenance has the same high standards that I do and they get the job done. I am delighted with their services!”
Ability Maintenance Service has been doing our building maintenance for more than a year and we are extremely pleased with their services. They are reliable, efficient, honest, courteous, and consistent in doing what is stated in their contract. Last fall we had a major flood in our building which made a disaster of our floors and carpets. We called Ralph Temps and he dropped everything, came right over with his equipment, and spent most of the night cleaning the floors...
and drying the carpeting, which would have been ruined if it had not been taken care of right way. This was above and beyond the call of duty. We have been in business for thirty-two years and have had many cleaning services in that time. Without a doubt, Ralph and his crew are the best we have ever had. They take pride in their work and want it to be right. I would recommend Ability Maintenance Service to anyone without any reservations.”
I thought I’d take a minute to write to let you know how much I appreciate the consistently excellent service you have provided us here at Digital Park for the past seven years. Every cleaner that you have given us has been thorough and punctual. I don’t know how you’ve been able to keep the service quality so high and yet have managed to keep the fees low during these past few years! Keep up the good work.”
I just wanted to let you know we are very pleased with you and your maintenance service. When I come to work in the mornings I can always tell you were here the night before because the carpets look so nice and our conference room is all clean and shiny. It only looks like that after you have been here the night before. The people you have working in our office are very friendly and are known to the staff that stays here late. I personally want to thank them for their honesty...
One night after work I couldn’t find my money clip and the money it contained. I was in a bit of a mystery and was wondering what had happened to it. The next day when I got to work the clip and the money was on my desk next to my keyboard in plain sight. I realized it must have fallen out of my pocket when I pulled my keys out of my pocket to lock up. I was very happy to have the mystery solved in such a pleasant manner, it just made my day. I am very happy with your service and the people you have working for you.”
I just want to give a short review of the service that Ability Maintenance Service has been providing for us for over 8 years. Their cleaning service is excellent. They have been very reliable and have attended to all of our cleaning needs professionally over the years. Their crew that cleans our office is always efficient and leaves the place looking great. I appreciate their work and would recommend them to any small business needing a quality janitorial service.”
It is such a huge relief to have your company clean our offices! I used to get complaints on a weekly basis from various staff about our old cleaning company. I would correct them and it would be good for a week or two and then the cleaning would fall out again. I didn’t realize how much attention I had on it until I hired your company. You have been cleaning our offices for three months and I have not had one complaint from any of the staff...
All medical rooms are cleaned as agreed upon in the contract and it has made my job much easier. I can now concentrate on expanding the company rather than getting the office cleaned correctly! Thank you so much!”
