AMS has kept North Dakota's commercial buildings clean since 1970.

Janitorial, floor care, carpet, stone and window cleaning for offices, clinics, schools, plants and government buildings across North Dakota, Minnesota, Montana and Idaho.

Founded in Fargo, 1970

The shop on Third Street North

Automated Maintenance Services was founded in 1970 by Mr. Paul Simonson, here in Fargo, with one line it still works to: “Providing top-quality janitorial services through sound management principles and technical advances.” More than fifty years later the corporate office is still here, and AMS crews look after several million square feet of retail, office and institutional space every day from seven branches in four states.

Every surface in the building, on one contract

Start with routine janitorial cleaning and add floor waxing, carpet, stone, glass, COVID Sanitizing and construction clean-up as the building needs them. Supplies come on the same contract. Each service has its own crew training and its own method.

Quoted building by building

Tell the Fargo office about your building.
