July 9, 2008—Universal Protection Services of America, a provider of building services that include janitorial, maintenance and security, has re-opened its janitorial division, to be known as Universal Building Maintenance, the company has announced.
This division was originally started back in 1965 and operated in southern California successfully for approximately 25 years. The addition of building maintenance makes Universal Services of America one of the largest, full service facility service companies, which includes the operation of security firms Universal Protection Service (UPS), UPS Security Systems, and UPS Fire/Life Safety Services, it says.
Brian Cescolini and Steve Jones, the owners of Universal Protection Service have partnered with Mark Olivas, the former managing director for the western region for One Source Building Services to re-open Universal Building Maintenance.
“With the recent consolidation of the two largest janitorial firms in the US,” said Cescolini, president and chief executive officer of Universal Protection Services of America. “We spoke with our clients and they welcomed a better option.”
Universal Building Maintenance will have offices in Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego to start and will expand when the opportunities present themselves. For more information, see the Web site.
