Understanding tech offices
Why standard office cleaning falls short for software companies
A modern IT office runs on completely different work patterns than a traditional administrative office: teams in open-plan spaces follow Agile and Scrum methods, developers share desks, and stand-up meetings happen on the fly right on the open floor. Protected source code is up on the screens, hardware prototypes sit on the desks, and the walls are covered with sprint-critical Kanban boards holding hundreds of Post-its. A cleaning service that wipes everything down following a rigid template can easily end up causing costly damage here.
At the same time, tech offices are lively places to work and spend the day: busy coffee bars with espresso machines, snack areas, gaming lounges, phone booths, and focus pods all need to be fresh and hygienic every day. Our cleaners follow clear guidelines: server rooms and data centers are strictly off-limits, Agile walls are never touched, whiteboards are cleaned only with explicit approval, and keyboards on sensitive developer hardware are protected.

As an owner-managed Hamburg company, we have been cleaning offices for tech and consulting firms for years — for example, the game developers at Crazybunch in Wandsbek and the IT consultancy Contiva in HafenCity. With 100% our own permanent staff, an in-house NDA as standard, documented access badges, and a contract you can cancel monthly, we’re a perfect fit for growing tech companies.
