Academic Calendar Scheduling
Safe for Students

Overview

Educational Facility Maintenance Scheduled Around Your Academic Calendar

Educational facility maintenance requires a fundamentally different scheduling approach than any other commercial property type. Construction and renovation work must be completed during summer breaks, spring breaks, and holiday periods — not during the academic year when students occupy the buildings. Deep cleaning programs that require chemical use or strong odors must be scheduled when buildings are unoccupied. Snow removal must clear all parking lots and walkways before the first bus arrives — before the school day begins, not after. And pest control in educational environments must use methods appropriate for the sensitive populations these buildings serve. The EPA's Integrated Pest Management for Schools program specifically addresses the need for low-toxicity pest management methods appropriate for educational environments.

Nationwide Maintenance provides professional facility maintenance for K-12 schools, school districts, colleges, and universities throughout New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. Our educational facility programs are built around academic calendar scheduling — construction during breaks, cleaning around student occupancy, grounds maintenance timed to the school year, and snow removal before the school day begins. Our WBE certification satisfies government school district procurement requirements, and our complete service portfolio covers every educational facility need — commercial cleaning, pest control, construction and renovation, grounds maintenance, snow removal, and handyman services.
