WE’RE QFS

And We Go the Extra Mile, Every Day.

WHO WE ARE

Over a Decade of Cleaner Solutions

In 2000, we opened our doors as a locally-focused maintenance company with a mission to treat each facility with the pride and care of ownership, including high quality standards and follow-through.

Today, QFS has a new vision: as a leading facility solutions provider, we strive to continuously expand the quality of our services to foster growth, satisfaction, and the confidence of a job well-done in every facility under our care.

Personal, Reliable, and High Quality.

That’s the QFS difference.

OUR APPROACH

PROACTIVE, INTEGRATED, COMPREHENSIVE SOLUTIONS.

WE’RE PROACTIVE We develop value-adding solutions for each property and continuously follow up to make sure that each service is maintained and supported, adapting to changing needs with immediate response.

WE’RE INTEGRATED With multiple services under our name, you can get a coordinated package of our highly-trained, certified, and fully-insured cleaning, management, and staffing personnel with just one phone call.

AND WE’RE COMPREHENSIVE  We provide a complete range of custodial, mid and post-construction, staffing, and emergency restoration services to handle any need, any mess, and any solution, anytime.

OUR VALUES

A Personal Touch

The QFS name stands for a tradition of care and personal consideration for every client and every project. Our clients know they can reach their project representative anytime with questions, comments, and concerns—and get a fast, attentive response by the QFS manager that knows their property.

A Safer Future

We’re committed to a brighter future, and that includes a safer world for everyone. Every project is handled with the utmost legal and industry standards for worker and occupant safety, and we use exclusively eco-friendly formulas and methods to keep our air as clean as we found it.

Our workers and staff are OSHA-certified, fully-insured, and trained in safe, effective maintenance and security protocols.

A Commitment to Excellence, Every Day

We do more than maintenance, upkeep, and staffing for your property. QFS is dedicated to building value for your facility and organization, growing with you and your needs to accommodate a changing world.
