About DCI Cleaning
Commercial cleaning without the corporate headaches.
For more than 30 years, DCI Cleaning has helped businesses and organizations in Sydney, Port Hawkesbury, Antigonish, New Glasgow, and across Cape Breton and Mainland Nova Scotia keep their facilities clean, safe, and ready for the people who use them every day.
We're big enough to handle large facilities and complex cleaning needs, while still being locally owned and operated. That means we know our clients, know our people, and stay close to the work. Our goal isn't simply to clean your building — it's to build a reliable system that works so well, you don't have to think about it.
Family owned & Operated
Local people
Professional standards
Reliable service
Big enough to handle it. Small enough to care.
You shouldn't have to choose between a small cleaning company that can't keep up and a national contractor where nobody knows your name. DCI has built its business in the space between the two...
Knows your name, but stretched thin when the schedule grows.
The scale to deliver. The local oversight to notice the details.
More than 150 cleaning staff and experience serving large commercial and institutional facilities — with the accountability and accessibility of an independently owned, locally operated company.
Has the scale, but often lacks the hands-on oversight of a local team.
We don't wait for you to find the problem.
A cleaning company shouldn't need to be managed by the customer. DCI's supervisors visit our worksites regularly throughout the month—inspecting quality, checking supplies and equipment, and identifying deficiencies before they become something you have to deal with.
Our approach is proactive: we want to see the problem before you do.
That ongoing oversight is one reason we've built relationships with clients who have trusted DCI for 25 and even 30 years.
