About us

Four decades of doing the unglamorous work well.

At Professional Maintenance of Long Island, we believe a clean, well-maintained environment is the foundation of how any organization operates. Our mission is to provide janitorial and maintenance services that exceed expectations — so the spaces we touch are pristine, safe, and welcoming.

With over 40 years of combined experience in janitorial services and distribution, PMLI is built on deep industry knowledge and a commitment to doing things properly. That experience is why healthcare facilities — the hardest buildings in the region to clean correctly — trust us with theirs.

We're not just a cleaning company.

PMLI grew out of the distribution side of this industry, and the two are still run together — Sam Janvey is President of both PMLI and I. Janvey & Sons. That means we source products, equipment, and supplies through a local distribution network we own, not one we're a customer of. When a supply chain tightens, our competitors wait. We don't.

It also means our chemistry and equipment recommendations come from people who know the products at the manufacturer level — not from whatever the catalog is pushing this quarter.

Why this matters to you: most cleaning contractors are at the mercy of a distributor for the products your building depends on. We are the distributor.

Built on relationships, not contracts

Over the years we've formed lasting partnerships with some of the largest suppliers and customers in the market. Those relationships are the proof — clients stay because the service holds up, and suppliers back us because we represent their products the way they're meant to be used.

Where we're going

As we grow, our focus stays on the standards that got us here. We're expanding across Long Island and the outer boroughs, taking on more complex facilities, and investing in the training and technology that keeps our crews ahead of what the work requires.
