“Turn a common service (cleaning) into a specialized service.”
- Charles Whitner, Founder and President, DeWhit, Inc.

In a day and age when companies only think about the bottom line and cutting costs, it’s nice to see a company that still holds on to the old-fashioned beliefs of business: work hard, treat a client’s money like you would your own, and don’t just meet a client’s expectations, exceed them! This is what America truly stands for and that’s why Charles Whitner and DeWhit, Inc. meet all the criteria of a true American success story.

For thirty years, Charles Whitner has taken DeWhit, Inc. from cleaning a single pizza restaurant to providing full-service janitorial services to some of the most prestigious companies in the southeastern United States – companies like GlaxoSmithKline, BMW, and the University of North Carolina to name a few. Projects now include a wide range of industry groups including manufacturing plants, educational facilities, government buildings, multi-family residences, civic and entertainment centers, pharmaceutical facilities, office buildings and research facilities.

Even though the clientele has changed over the years, the DeWhit philosophy that Charles Whitner embraced thirty years ago has remained – “Turn a common service (cleaning) into a specialized service.”

Every job is performed using the highest of standards, ensuring a reputation of quality and integrity that is number one in the industry. DeWhit has been able to create and refine the most comprehensive housekeeping process available, a process with a proven track record of delivering top-of-the-line quality with cost-saving efficiencies.

Though it has grown throughout the years, DeWhit remains true to its primary goal of offering the highest level of quality to ensure customer satisfaction. By remaining privately-owned, we don’t have the corporate restraints nor the reporting burdens normally associated with the corporate culture; thus, we are able to spend more time on what we feel is most important – implementing and maintaining an optimum cleaning process at the lowest possible cost.

Today, DeWhit, Inc. employs over 200 housekeeping employees at different locations at any given time throughout the Southeast. Charles Whitner, as President, now heads up teams of housekeeping management specialists and technicians committed to customer service and quality.
