What Scottie’s does
Scottie's Building Services is a commercial building maintenance contractor founded in 1986 and headquartered in Apex, North Carolina, operating across North Carolina, South Carolina, and parts of Virginia. The company provides exterior building services including window cleaning (interior/exterior, high-rise, low-rise, glass restoration, post-construction cleaning), commercial pressure washing (high-pressure, heated, soft washing, graffiti removal), additional services (metal maintenance, high dusting, parking deck cleaning and sweeping), and OSHA-compliant fall protection systems (anchor design, installation, inspection, certification). Its customer base spans commercial real estate, healthcare, universities, stadiums, aviation, government, industrial parks, retail, hospitality, parking structures, and multi-family residential, with named enterprise accounts including Lowe's, Duke Energy, JLL, and Johnson Controls.
The company's technology stack centers on physical service equipment rather than software: FAA-certified drone cleaning solutions using deionized water systems for surfaces up to 150 feet high, multi-stage water recycling systems in scrubber-equipped vehicles for EPA Clean Water Act compliance, glass restoration techniques that address root causes of mineral deposit staining, and turnkey fall protection systems meeting OSHA 5,000-lb anchor load requirements. Services are delivered through three regional offices (Raleigh-Durham, Charlotte, Greensboro) with dedicated Business Development Managers and Territory Development Managers per territory, supported by Division Managers with 30-37 years of industry experience each.
Scottie's operates a professional services revenue model with quote-based pricing, custom preventative maintenance plans, and multi-year recurring contracts. Since 2021, the company has operated as a subsidiary of the Valcourt Group, a national exterior maintenance platform. The company recently launched two new product lines in 2025—Drone Cleaning Solutions (October) and Fall Protection Solutions (May)—expanding its service portfolio beyond traditional window cleaning and pressure washing into higher-margin specialty and compliance-driven categories. Distribution is entirely direct field sales with no e-commerce or marketplace channels, and demand generation relies on industry association memberships across ten organizations (BOMA, NCHEA, IFMA, IREM, IWCA, IIBEC, ICRI, PWNA, NCAPPA) and a blog/website presence.
