What SKB does

SKB Facilities & Maintenance, Inc. is a privately held, Tennessee-based commercial and industrial cleaning services provider founded in 2005, operating across the Mid-South and Southeast United States from offices in Memphis (headquarters), Nashville, Chattanooga, and Atlanta. The company's service portfolio spans janitorial and custodial work, carpet cleaning (truck-mounted hot water extraction), ceiling tile cleaning and restoration using 18 proprietary eco-friendly chemical solutions, construction clean-up for projects from 1,000 to 1,650,000 square feet, industrial cleaning and cleanroom contamination control (ISO 100,000 to 1,000 classifications), tile and grout cleaning with color sealing, warehouse cleaning supporting ISO 9000 quality programs, pressure washing, lawn care, and green cleaning using HEPA/ULPA vacuums and microfiber systems. SKB serves government agencies, K-12 school districts (over 3,000,000 sq ft maintained daily), higher education, manufacturing (including semiconductor and pharmaceutical), corporate offices, banks, healthcare, retail, and public venues; named customers include the City of Memphis, Shelby and Catoosa Counties, Memphis-Shelby County Airport Authority, St. Francis Hospital, FedEx, Cummins, Siemens, AT&T, Coca-Cola, and EPB.

The business model is a sales-led, direct commercial services motion offering customized bundling on subscription-style recurring contracts (daily, weekly, monthly cadence) for janitorial and facilities operations, alongside one-time project work for carpet cleaning, ceiling restoration, construction clean-up, and pressure washing. Pricing is bespoke — clients pay only for services selected — billed monthly, with a free consultation and estimate as the entry point and a dedicated "Pilot Program" for K-12 districts to test outsourcing economics. The workforce model is direct-hire rather than subcontracted, supported by weekly and monthly training, a Safety and Risk Management program, and routine QC inspections. The company markets through a company website, Facebook presence, direct outreach, and regional offices.
