WHY GRIT EXISTS
GRIT Cleaning Co was built to solve a problem: gyms weren’t being cleaned to the standard members actually expect.
​
Founded by Jake Mangels, a former Gym Manager and Strength & Conditioning Coach, GRIT was created from inside the industry - not outside it. After years working in high-performance environments, it became clear that most cleaning companies simply don’t understand gyms: the traffic, the wear, the equipment, or the level of presentation required.
​
What started as a focused solution for a handful of gyms quickly grew through word of mouth, as owners recognised the difference in both cleanliness and member experience.
​
Today, GRIT services gyms across Perth - from Joondalup to Baldivis - delivering consistent, high-level results built on industry knowledge, proven systems, and attention to detail.
​
We’re not a general cleaning company.
​
We’re gym specialists - and it shows in every clean.
OUR STANDARD
At GRIT, we don’t just clean gyms - we maintain training environments.
​
Every service is built around precision, consistency, and a deep understanding of how high-performance spaces operate. From equipment to floors to high-contact surfaces, nothing is overlooked.
​
We’re not here to meet expectations.
We’re here to raise them.
MEET THE FOUNDER
JAKE MANGELS
With over 7 years experience in the fitness industry as a coach and gym manager, Jake understands exactly what gym owners expect - and what members notice.
​
From managing daily operations to maintaining high-performance training spaces, he saw first-hand the gap between standard cleaning services and what gyms actually need.
​
GRIT Cleaning Co was built to close that gap - combining industry knowledge with professional systems to deliver a level of cleanliness that supports both performance and member experience.
