ChamberofCommerce.comVerified MemberLaboratory cleaning services from Modular cover the rooms around the lab, not the lab itself. That means offices, write-up areas, corridors, break rooms, restrooms, lobbies, and conference rooms. Visitors and new hires see those rooms long before they see a bench.
The scope starts as a room list, written before any price. Benches, fume hoods, samples, glassware, and instruments are always out. So are biohazard and chemical waste. All of that stays with your lab staff.
| Line on the quote | What it covers | When it applies |
|---|---|---|
| Regular scope | Offices, write-up areas, corridors, break rooms, restrooms, and the lobby | Every scheduled visit |
| Lab support areas | Floors and regular trash only, in the rooms your safety officer names | Only after approval and a site briefing |
| Added lines | Day porter hours, floor care, disinfection, and cleaning after a fit-out | When the lab asks, each priced apart |
| Not on the quote | Benches, hoods, samples, glassware, lab waste, and controlled rooms | Never. These stay with your lab staff |
Laboratory buildings are different to clean because the science runs late and many doors are closed to a cleaning crew. An experiment can keep someone at a bench past midnight. The crew plans its route around people who are still at work.
Laboratory cleaning starts with a room list, not a task list. Walking into the wrong room is a worse mistake than missing a baseboard. A door that is not on the list stays shut, even if the badge would open it. Badge zones are set with your security team before the first visit.
Corridors double as storage. Freezers, supply carts, and boxed deliveries often line the hall, and the crew cleans around them. Nothing is moved or unplugged.
Food and drink stay out of the lab, so the break room carries every lunch and every coffee. Write-up desks hold notebooks and laptops that must stay where they are. The crew empties the bin, vacuums the floor, and wipes only clear surfaces.
Lab operations managers choose Modular's lab cleaning services for three reasons. The scope stops at the lab door, the same background-checked crew returns, and there is no term to sign.
Every room is marked in or out before a price is set. Benches, hoods, and controlled rooms are written as excluded, so nobody guesses which doors the crew may open.
The crew assigned to your building is the crew that returns. Every member is background-checked and takes your site orientation. A supervisor inspects on a schedule.
There is no long-term contract. A new wing changes the scope with 30 days notice. Customers stay about eight years on average, and the work is the reason.
Modular carries $2,000,000 in general liability through Northeast Insurance and workers' compensation through Travelers, and is fully bonded. Your certificate names the building owner or the manager you specify.
Modular is SDO certified by the Massachusetts Supplier Diversity Office. For a university or a lab that spends state funds, that helps meet vendor rules.
People write and meet a few steps from the lab, often late. Crews are Green Seal trained and can use low-odor products there. Ask for green cleaning and it goes into the written scope.
Four programs fit a lab building best. Each has a service page and a separate line on the quote.
Lab corridors take carts, dollies, and wheeled equipment all day. Keeping them up is part of a floor care program that covers 750,000+ square feet a year, including carpet cleaning. VCT, sheet vinyl, tile, and epoxy are scrubbed and recoated on a set rotation. The work is booked for a night or weekend when the corridor can close. The program covers hard surfaces only. Modular does not refinish wood or polish concrete.
A lab building stays busy into the evening, and the break room never rests. A day porter checks the restrooms at set times, resets the break room after lunch, and keeps the lobby ready for visitors. The porter works only in the shared areas and answers to the lab operations manager.
Everyone in the building touches the same door handles, elevator buttons, and refrigerator doors. A daily pass over those high-touch surfaces can be written into the regular visit, using EPA-registered disinfectants. Bench and equipment decontamination follows your own lab procedure and stays with lab staff.
A new lab suite or office wing ends in drywall dust. Modular cleans the new offices, write-up areas, and corridors after the trades leave. Empty lab rooms are cleaned only when the project team lists them, before the lab stocks them. A room built as a controlled room stays with the lab's own specialist.
From the first walk to the day a new wing opens, in five steps.
About an hour with the lab operations manager. Every room outside the lab is walked. The safety officer joins if a support area may be added.
The room list goes on the quote. Benches, hoods, controlled rooms, and lab waste are written as staying with your lab staff.
Crew names go to your security team. The safety officer briefs the crew. Your certificate of insurance is issued for the address.
The assigned crew starts on the agreed hours. A sign-off closes each visit, and a supervisor checks the work on a schedule.
A new wing, a new tenant, or a room that becomes controlled changes the list. The scope changes with 30 days notice.
Laboratory cleaning services are priced building by building after a walkthrough, never from a posted rate card. Modular Concepts quotes the rooms outside the lab as the regular scope, with no term attached, in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. The monthly number rests on three things: which rooms are in scope, how often each is cleaned, and what each visit includes.
The walk takes about an hour with the lab operations manager. Each room is marked in or out as you go.
Rooms outside the lab are the base. A lab support area joins only by approval, on its own line.
Visits are set area by area. Restrooms and break rooms are cleaned every workday, and quiet offices can run fewer nights.
Restrooms and break rooms carry the longest task lists. A write-up area is trash, a vacuum, and clear surfaces wiped.
Each area, its frequency, and its tasks turn into lines. The regular scope, approved support areas, and added work stay apart, and excluded rooms are named.
Steps advance on their own. Tap a hex to hold it.
Bring your current task list and your room restrictions to the walk, so two quotes compare line by line.
Modular Concepts cleans the offices and shared areas of laboratory buildings across Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. The program fits six kinds of building. Life sciences facility cleaning follows the same rule as the rest: the crew works outside the bench areas.
Biotech and pharma research buildings, like those along I-495 and Route 9. Write-up areas, offices, and shared rooms are the regular scope, and lab support joins only by approval.
Electronics, materials, and product test labs inside a corporate building. The office wing is cleaned like any workplace, and the crew stops at the test benches.
A quality control lab usually sits inside a plant. Its office and the shared rooms can join the scope, and the plant floor follows the industrial program.
Science buildings run on the academic calendar. Lecture rooms, offices, halls, and restrooms are the regular scope, and teaching labs stay with the department's lab staff.
The owner carries the lobby, the shared corridors, and the restrooms. Each tenant can add its offices on its own line, and tenant labs stay out.
Many small teams share one kitchen, one lounge, and a row of desks. Those shared rooms are the scope, and the operator is the single contact.
Bench areas and lab waste stay with lab staff in every building on this page. A production floor belongs to the industrial program on the industries page. An address with no lab space at all belongs on the office buildings page.
Modular has no laboratory review to show yet. These Google reviews are from office customers and about floor work like the programs above, quoted as written.
“The Modular Concepts team clean our office daily and do a great job! Luiz is prompt to respond to any special requests we make.”
“Luiz Thomaz and his crew at Modular Concepts succeeded in restoring my vinyl tile floor to a shining new conditions. I am very happy with the results, they exceeded my expectations and I have decided to start using Modular for the rest of my office cleaning.”
Written for lab operations and facilities managers. If your space has no lab in it, the office cleaning page is the better start.
Laboratory cleaning services from Modular include the rooms outside the lab: offices, write-up areas, corridors, break rooms, restrooms, lobbies, and conference rooms. General lab support areas can be added for floors and regular trash only, once your safety officer approves it. Benches, hoods, samples, glassware, and lab waste stay with your lab staff.
No, Modular does not clean cleanrooms, biosafety suites, vivariums, or any room that requires gowning. Those rooms belong with a specialist vendor that works under your lab's own procedures. Modular's crew stays in the offices, corridors, and shared rooms around them, and the room list names every door that stays closed.
Your lab staff and your licensed waste vendor handle all biohazard, chemical, and sharps waste. Modular's crew removes regular trash and recycling only, from the bins the lab marks for it. The crew never opens, moves, or empties a lab waste container. A regular bin that seems to hold lab waste is left in place and reported.
The crew can clean floors in general lab support areas, but only after your safety officer approves it. The safety officer names the rooms and briefs the assigned crew on the site rules. The work there is floors and regular trash only. Bench areas, hoods, sinks, and equipment are never part of it.
Laboratory cleaning services are priced per building after a free walkthrough, so there is no posted rate. The number comes from the rooms in scope, how often each is cleaned, and the tasks per visit. A written quote follows the walkthrough, and the service runs month to month, with no term to sign.
Every crew member gets basic in-house safety training before working in a lab building, and Bloodborne Pathogens training is available. The assigned crew then takes your site orientation before it enters any lab support area. The crew is trained to clean around a lab, not inside one.
The certificate of insurance for your address names the owner or manager you specify. The policy behind it is $2,000,000 in general liability through Northeast Insurance, with workers' compensation through Travelers. Modular is fully bonded. A campus with several buildings gets one certificate per address, and a copy is available on request.
Yes, Modular's lab building program runs in Connecticut and Rhode Island, not only in Massachusetts. Crews travel from the Marlborough headquarters to the Hartford and Providence markets. The same room list and the same exclusions apply in every state. A company with labs in several states keeps one Modular contact.
Lab buildings often sit beside these on one campus, and each has a program of its own.
Outpatient offices and clinics, cleaned after patient hours.
