Businesses in this class typically perform specialty cleaning and maintenance services at client properties — examples include chimney sweeping and inspection, swimming pool cleaning and chemical balancing, ventilation duct cleaning, drain and gutter cleaning, and building exterior washing. Workers generally travel to client sites with specialized equipment and chemicals rather than operating from a fixed service location.
Questions to investigate
- What specific services does the business perform — chimney, pool, duct, gutter, exterior washing, or a combination?
- Is work performed primarily at residential properties, commercial buildings, or both?
- Does any work involve heights, roof access, scaffolding, or rope access?
- What chemicals are used or transported, and in what quantities?
