Strata cleaning and periodic maintenance
Common areas residents are proud of, all year round. We look after the common areas of apartment buildings, unit complexes and strata-managed properties across Adelaide. Regular cleaning keeps the building presentable week to week, and a planned program of periodic work keeps it in good condition all year.

Visible, accountable cleaning
Our cleaners clock in and out of every job in Filo Care, our own job management app. You can get photos and a job report after each clean, so you always know the work was done.
Why strata managers choose Filo Cleano
A 12-month cleaning plan
We set out what's done every visit, monthly and through the year, so the committee knows exactly what the building gets and when.
Periodic work from one team
Machine scrubs, pressure washing, carpets, windows, gutters and gardening from the same provider, with no extra contractors to manage.
Monthly reporting
A written report each month on the building's condition, the work completed and any issues found.
Issues reported the same day
Graffiti, faulty lights or insecure doors are reported to the strata manager straight away, with photos.
Feedback from residents
A communication book on site and optional QR code feedback in common areas, so residents can raise things with us directly.
A consistent, employed team
The same police checked cleaners every visit, who get to know the building, its residents and its rules.
Our team
Filo Cleano has more than 35 staff, all employed directly under the Cleaning Services Award. Each one is police checked, inducted into our workplace standards and trained to the same specification, so you get the same result whoever is rostered.

A local social enterprise
Filo Cleano was founded by Mirra Bengua, a Filipino migrant, and Jacob Habner, a South Australian local. We started it to open the door to stable, fairly paid work, the step that matters most for people building a new life here.
Our work is guided by three Filipino values: kapwa (shared identity and respect), pakikisama (working well together) and bayanihan (working together for the common good). They shape how we hire, how we train and how we look after clients and our team.
Every dollar you spend with us goes into Award wages and training for people contributing to South Australia. Our social mission is part of our company structure, and we report on our social and community outcomes every year.
You deal with the owners
When you work with Filo Cleano you deal directly with the owners, Mirra and Jacob. No call centre and no scheduler you've never met. If something needs attention, you know exactly who to call, and we'll get back to you the same day.
