Do you handle prevailing wage compliance for government contracts?

Yes. For municipal and state government contracts that require prevailing wage compliance, we pay our crews at the prevailing rate for the relevant job classification and provide certified payroll documentation as required.

What is your bonding and insurance level for government work?

Our bonding and general liability insurance levels meet the standard requirements in most CT and RI municipal RFPs. Specific limits available on request. We will add your municipality as named insured on the certificate of insurance.

Can you serve municipal RFP requirements with the documentation we need?

Yes. We are comfortable working under the procurement and bidding processes that municipal facilities require, and we will provide the documentation needed for your file. Most of our existing municipal clients have our COI, scope of work, and crew background-check verifications on file as part of their facilities documentation.

Do you have experience with public-safety facility access protocols?

Yes. We currently service police and fire department buildings with appropriate access protocols. Background-checked crews, after-hours scheduling that respects 24/7 shift operations, escort protocols for holding areas where required, and documented credentials handling per facility procedure.

Government & Municipal Facility Cleaning in Connecticut

All Services

Government and municipal facility cleaning across Connecticut, Rhode Island, and southern Massachusetts

Government and municipal facility cleaning is a high-trust, high-accountability category. Town halls, public safety buildings, courthouses, and libraries operate under public scrutiny — the cleanliness of the lobby, the restroom, and the public meeting rooms reflects directly on how residents perceive their local government. Fraser Commercial Services has cleaned commercial buildings throughout eastern and central Connecticut for 39 years, and we run our municipal accounts to a level of documentation and compliance that municipal facilities directors actually need from a cleaning vendor.

We’re a 39-year-old, family-run, veteran-owned commercial cleaning company headquartered in Waterford, CT. Every cleaner assigned to a government facility is background-checked before they receive a key, fob, or alarm code — the default for any work involving access to public buildings. Our crews are bonded, our company carries general liability insurance, and we’ll add your municipality as named insured on request. We’re comfortable working under the procurement and bidding processes that municipal facilities require, and we’ll provide the documentation needed for your file.

Government facility types we serve

Town halls and municipal administrative offices — full-building programs, including assessor’s office, town clerk, planning, public works, and the selectmen’s/mayor’s suite

Police and fire department buildings — 24/7 facility cleaning that doesn’t disrupt shift operations, dorm/bunk areas, locker rooms, kitchen and break areas

Federal facility satellite offices and post offices — appropriate clearance and access protocols

Documentation, bidding, and procurement

Municipal cleaning contracts have specific procurement and documentation requirements that vendors who don’t serve government accounts often can’t meet. We can provide certificates of insurance with your municipality named as additional insured, complete W-9s and tax compliance documentation, prevailing-wage compliance documentation where required, and references from existing municipal accounts. Our bonding and insurance levels meet the standard requirements in most CT and RI municipal RFPs.

What’s included in a Fraser Commercial municipal cleaning program

Background checks, scheduling, and supervision

Every cleaner assigned to a municipal account is background-checked before they receive a key, fob, or alarm code, and we don’t duplicate or share access credentials. Each site has documented access procedures held by a named supervisor, and we coordinate with your facilities staff or town manager on schedule changes, special events, and after-hours building access. If a regular cleaner is out, our supervisor or projects lead is on-call and your building gets covered.
