How much does institutional cost in Madison, WI?
Government and institutional cleaning in Madison, WI means meeting procurement requirements while delivering the same quality we bring to every job. I'm Ashton Ferry, owner of The Total Wash Co., and we understand institutional purchasing: vendor registries, RFP responses, budget cycles, purchase orders, and compliance documentation. We carry $2M in general liability insurance, full workers' comp, and bonding — and we provide certificates of insurance naming your organization as additional insured on request.

What Customers Say About Our Institutional
8-building complex in 2 days
“Hired them for our entire condo complex — 8 buildings, all sidewalks, the parking garage. They came in, knocked it out in two days, and the residents are thrilled. Already scheduled for next year.”
Angela Cruz, HOA President
Fitchburg, WI
Fixed another contractor's mistakes
“We hired a cheaper company for pressure washing and they damaged our deck stain and left streaks everywhere. The Total Wash came in, fixed everything, and made our deck look better than new. They explained exactly what went wrong and how they'd prevent it. True professionals.”
Marcus Thompson

Caught cracked window seal
“Best window cleaning we've ever had. They pointed out a cracked seal on one of our double-pane windows before starting — saved us from water damage. Will absolutely use them every spring.”
