About Us

50 Years of Commercial Cleaning

It was 1972...

And Jim Harris, Sr. was thinking big. He founded Janitronics Facility Services in Albany, NY as a local cleaning service. Most people saw it as a company of just janitors and custodians. Jim Harris, Sr. had much bigger plans for it. But he decided that, even more importantly, he had to think small for efficient, effective cleaning.

Fifty years later, Janitronics Facility Services has proven the wisdom to our founder’s plans. We proudly serve New York State and surrounding Northeastern states. We strive hard to clean for health, constantly reviewing and updating our processes to keep up with emerging science. We remain family-owned and operated.

And we continue to never lose our focus on the small things.

"We're not your traditional janitorial service. We're not just dumping wastebaskets and cleaning restrooms. We're cleaning a work environment to maintain a very high health standard. We're thinking small in a big way and have transformed cleaning into a science."

- Jim Harris Sr.

Cleaning With Science

Commercial cleaning goes beyond what you see. Millions of particles go unseen by the naked eye; dust particles, microbes, and other biocontaminants can hide in plain sight. Janitors should not just clean for appearance, but for health as well.

That’s why Janitronics turns to science for the best cleaning methods. We’ve always worked towards cleaning for health. That means sanitizing and disinfecting surfaces for the safety of everyone in your facility. We use products that have been proven to work. And we’ll keep listening to science to improve and bring our best to our work.

Our Core Values

Our employees receive the same level of care that we give to our work. Each member of the Janitronics team undergoes extensive background checks and drug screening once hired, no exceptions. Afterwards, they are trained in our 18,000 square foot headquarters. Additional training continues throughout their time at Janitronics, with special certification testing encouraged. The ultimate result is highly trained professionals ready to tackle any problem.
