Professional Strata Cleaning Sydney
Showpiece Commercial Cleaning provides professional strata cleaning services across Sydney for residential apartment buildings, mixed-use complexes, and commercial strata schemes. We are a CM3-certified contractor — the compliance standard required by most strata management companies in NSW — with 24 years of experience cleaning strata properties across the greater Sydney metropolitan area.
Our strata cleaning programs are managed directly by owners Ross and Jen McDowall. We conduct a free on-site assessment for every new building and maintain direct communication with strata managers and building committees throughout each contract.
Strata Cleaning Services We Provide
We clean all common areas and building facilities in strata schemes, including:
- Internal common areas — lobbies, lifts, corridors, stairwells, mailrooms, and intertenancy passages
- Car parks and loading docks — sweeping, pressure washing, and bay line maintenance
- External areas — driveways, pathways, building entrances, bin enclosures and surrounds
- Pool and gym facilities — cleaning and sanitising of amenity spaces in residential buildings
- High-pressure washing — building facades, car park decks, driveways, and external paving
- Window cleaning — common area glazing, entrance windows, and lobby glass
- Periodic deep cleans — pre-AGM building cleans, post-renovation cleans, biannual deep-cleans
Building Types We Service
Showpiece services a wide range of strata building types across Sydney:

- Mixed-use buildings — retail ground floor with residential or commercial upper levels
- Commercial strata — office parks, industrial unit complexes, and retail strips under strata title
- Community title schemes — townhouse and terrace developments with shared common areas
- Serviced apartment and hotel strata — buildings under mixed strata and management rights arrangements
CM3 Certification and Strata Compliance
CM3 certification is now required by most strata management companies and building managers in NSW before engaging any contractor on a building. Showpiece holds active CM3 status, which means our safety management system, insurance certificates, training records, and induction procedures are independently verified and kept current year-round.
When you engage Showpiece, we provide our CM3 certificate directly to your strata manager. This satisfies standard contractor compliance requirements without additional paperwork from the owners corporation.
Working With Strata Managers
We understand that strata cleaning involves multiple stakeholders — the owners corporation, the strata manager, the building manager, and individual lot owners. Showpiece is experienced in this environment:
- Dedicated point of contact for each building’s strata manager
- Cleaning logs and visit records provided on request
- Response to ad-hoc requests between scheduled visits where operationally possible
- Attendance at building meetings when invited for contract reviews or issue resolution
- All compliance documentation maintained and readily available at all times

Frequently Asked Questions — Strata Cleaning Sydney
What does strata cleaning cost in Sydney?
Strata cleaning costs vary by building size, number of common areas, visit frequency, and the scope of services. A small residential block with basic corridor and lobby cleaning may start from $300–$500 per month; a large complex with car parks, pool areas, and multiple lift lobbies will cost more. We provide a written quote after a free on-site assessment — call us on 02 8252 8577.
Are you CM3 certified?
Yes. Showpiece holds active CM3 certification, which is the standard recognised and required by most strata management companies in NSW. We can provide our certificate directly to your strata manager to satisfy contractor compliance requirements.
How often should strata common areas be cleaned?
Most residential strata buildings in Sydney clean lobbies and lifts 2–3 times per week, with car parks and external areas serviced weekly or fortnightly. The right frequency depends on occupancy, foot traffic, and committee priorities — we advise specifically during the on-site assessment.
Do you work directly with strata managers or owners corporations?
Both. We work with strata managers who engage us on behalf of the owners corporation, and directly with self-managed schemes and active building committees. We are familiar with the major strata management companies operating in Sydney.
What notice is required on your strata cleaning contracts?
Our standard contracts require 30 days notice from either party. There are no lock-in terms beyond the first month and no penalties for ending the arrangement with proper notice.
