About Kustom Kleaning Services
For over 30 years, we’ve worked with dozens of customers to create healthy and beautiful workplaces. What started as a nurse’s dream to work for herself has grown into a commercial cleaning and janitorial company that employs over 160 people and offers services all over the East Tennessee region.
With each customer, we’ve learned more and more about being a trusted cleaning partner. Things like creating customized cleaning plans and hiring exceptional people. Ones that we’d trust working in our own homes.
We believe our customers deserve a commercial cleaning plan that is tailored to fit their needs while keeping their workplaces healthy and beautiful.
