A family-owned cleaning company that’s been a fixture in the capital for more than half a century is now owned by a B.C. firm.
Vancouver-based Alpine Building Maintenance said Tuesday it’s acquired Ottawa’s Domus Building Cleaning Co. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Founded in 1969, Domus employs more than 400 people and has customers throughout the National Capital Region. In a statement, Domus officials say the deal gives the Ottawa firm an “excellent opportunity to continue to grow and find innovative new approaches” to serving its customers.

“This is the start of an exciting time for all of us at Domus,” CEO Marc L’Ecuyer said. “Together with Alpine, we can use our combined best practices to better serve existing and new clients. We look forward to this next chapter.”
Alpine Building Maintenance, which is also a family-owned enterprise, is the country’s fourth-largest janitorial service.
“This latest acquisition further strengthens our corporate reach as we continue to expand throughout Canada,” Alpine chief executive Harj Johal said in a statement. “I’m incredibly impressed by Domus – they have an excellent team and top-quality leadership. We’re going to learn a lot from each other.”
