What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Buildingstars's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees offer a range of cleaning services to commercial clients. These services include janitorial services, restroom sanitation, vacuuming, sweeping, dusting, waxing, buffing, trash removal, carpet cleaning, and other related services for commercial offices and various types of buildings. Buildingstars aims to secure initial cleaning contracts for franchisees and negotiates the terms with customers, offering franchisees the opportunity to fulfill these contracts. Franchisees are then responsible for providing the services under these Customer Accounts and can also request additional accounts through Buildingstars.
Buildingstars offers three franchise program types: the Technician Program, the On-Site Manager Program, and the Corporate Program. The Technician Program is designed for owner-operators who perform the cleaning services themselves in smaller buildings. The On-Site Manager Program allows franchisees to expand by hiring employees to clean larger buildings. The Corporate Program is for franchisees who manage their business full-time and handle even larger accounts with more employees.
The services provided by Buildingstars franchisees may be changed, improved, modified, and further developed by Buildingstars or its affiliates over time. Franchisees must operate their business in accordance with the Buildingstars system and use the brand's marks. While the FDD states that Buildingstars is not aware of laws or regulations specific to the cleaning industry, franchisees must comply with general business laws and regulations, including those related to cleaning solvents and environmental concerns.
