From single-site charter campuses to multi-school district portfolios and university satellite buildings, OH Building Services delivers DSA-aware capital, child-safe janitorial chemistry, and summer-turnaround capability across SoCal — with fingerprinted, badged crews.
─ The reality
A summer flooring or HVAC project that slips into August costs the district instructional days. Vendors who can't hit a hard summer window aren't viable for K-12.
DSA-jurisdictional projects need contractors who understand the inspection sequence, IOR coordination, and submittal timeline — most don't.
California's Green Cleaning law and child-safety standards mean a generic janitorial chemistry will fail an audit. Most vendors don't even know it exists.
Megan's Law, fingerprinting, TB clearance, and badge access — every crew member on a K-12 campus has to clear standards general commercial vendors don't track.
Bond-funded capital work requires DIR registration, certified payroll, and prevailing-wage compliance. A missed certified payroll filing can stop a draw mid-project.
─ How OH solves it
OH Building Services runs education accounts to the academic calendar — capital and turnaround work scheduled into the summer window, deep cleans during winter and spring breaks, and after-hours service during the school year. Our crews on K-12 sites are fingerprinted, TB-cleared, and badged. Janitorial chemistry is Green Cleaning Act compliant, child-safe, and Green Seal certified.
Every trade your campus needs — janitorial, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, life-safety, lighting, flooring, painting, and DSA-coordinated capital — under one CSLB A & B license. We're DIR-registered for prevailing-wage work and routinely deliver certified payroll for bond-funded projects without disrupting the draw schedule.
Our education clients report on-time summer turnarounds, cleared Green Cleaning audits, DSA project closeouts on the first submittal, and a single PM responsible for everything from the first-day-of-school punch list to the multi-year bond capital pipeline.

"Our last vendor missed the August window on a multi-classroom flooring replacement and we lost two days of instruction. OH took over the next year, hit the August 5 deadline a week early, and delivered DSA close-out paperwork without our IOR chasing them once."
─ Case studies
A sample of education engagements across Southern California — anonymized at the request of our clients, but the metrics are real.
OH delivered a multi-year bond-funded HVAC modernization across a 14-school K-12 district. DIR-registered, certified payroll filed weekly, DSA closeouts on first submittal. All summer windows met, zero instructional days lost.
After a state Green Cleaning audit found gaps with the previous vendor, OH transitioned the program in 30 days, retrained crews on Green Seal chemistry, and delivered a full IAQ baseline. Re-audit cleared, classroom IAQ scores improved measurably the next semester.
OH consolidated janitorial, MEP, and capital across 6 charter campuses under one PM and one MSA. First-year aggregate facilities spend down materially with measurably faster work-order resolution and full Green Cleaning Act compliance documentation.
