Kitchens and breakrooms
Counters, sinks, tables, floors and appliance exteriors are cleaned so shared kitchens stay pleasant to use.
Staff kitchens
Coffee stations, refrigerator fronts and microwaves are wiped so the room is fresh for the next break.
Restocked every visit
Soap and paper towels are restocked on every visit, with supplies from us or from your own stock.
Scheduled around your day
Cleaning happens before your team arrives or after they leave, so the kitchen is ready for the next day.
Breakrooms people are happy to use
An office breakroom is often the busiest room in the building at lunchtime. Counters, sinks, tables and appliance exteriors are cleaned so the next person walks into a pleasant space, and soap and paper towels are restocked on each visit so nobody finds an empty dispenser.
Restaurants and cafés have their own page: restaurant cleaning covers the cook line, prep areas, walk-ins and dining room. Offices can add the kitchen to their regular office cleaning visits.
Area by area in a shared kitchen
Counters are cleared and wiped so crumbs and spills come off the work surface entirely. Sinks are scrubbed, along with the faucets and fixtures around them, and tables and chairs are wiped where people actually sit and eat. Appliance exteriors, from refrigerator doors to microwave fronts and coffee machine housings, are cleaned of fingerprints and drips.
The floor comes last, once everything above it is clean. Dispensers are then checked and refilled with soap and paper towels so the room is fully stocked for the next shift, and bins are emptied and relined, which matters more in a kitchen than anywhere else in the building.
Choosing a breakroom schedule
A breakroom used by a small team at lunch usually stays pleasant with cleaning on each regular office visit. A larger workplace, where people use the kitchen from early coffee through afternoon snacks, benefits from a daytime touch-up, and a day porter can wipe counters and refill dispensers between full cleanings.
Before the first visit, you choose whether we bring soap and paper towels or restock from your storeroom. Breakrooms in Santa Cruz offices sit comfortably inside the regular office cleaning checklist, while restaurant kitchens are handled together with the dining room under restaurant cleaning.
What kitchen and breakroom cleaning costs in Santa Cruz
Kitchen and breakroom cleaning in Santa Cruz is usually part of a monthly per-square-foot program. County market data for 2026 puts five-night office programs at about $0.15 to $0.24 a foot, and kitchens price above that band, from about $0.24 up to $0.43 for the busiest, because sinks, appliances and restocking take more time per foot.
Imagine your office campus has three breakrooms and a staff kitchen, 2,400 square feet in all. Wiping counters, cleaning appliance fronts and sinks, mopping, emptying trash and restocking paper and soap five nights a week at $0.30 a foot costs $720 a month. Add a weekly refrigerator clean-out and the number goes up a little.
Grease and volume push the rate up. A kitchen that cooks every day takes more time than a breakroom with a coffee maker. Restocking, extra sinks and stainless steel that shows every fingerprint add minutes. Evening and early-morning windows that work around your staff cost more. Kitchens that need nightly degreasing reach $0.43 a foot, while a tidy breakroom with light use stays toward the bottom. Walk us through your kitchens and breakrooms, and your quote lists each one.
