Post-Construction Cleaning

Your renovation is finished. We clear out the dust so you can actually enjoy it.

Even after the contractors sweep up, a renovation leaves a fine layer of dust on everything: cabinet tops, window sills, light fixtures, vents, baseboards and inside every drawer. It keeps settling for days, and a regular cleaning isn’t built to deal with it.

Our post-construction cleaning works through the space from top to bottom, so dust that comes down from fixtures and ledges is picked up on the floors at the end. We use commercial Hoover HEPA vacuums that trap fine drywall and sawdust instead of blowing it back into the air.

It’s a good fit after a kitchen or bathroom remodel, a basement finish, an addition, new flooring or a fresh paint job, and before you move furniture back in or move into a newly built home.

Common questions

When should I schedule a post-construction cleaning?
Once the contractors have finished their work and removed their tools and materials. If there are still trades coming back, it’s usually best to wait so the space only needs to be cleaned once.
Do you remove construction debris?
No. We clean dust and residue from the space, but leftover materials, scrap and large debris should be hauled away by your contractor before we arrive.
How is this different from a deep cleaning?
A deep clean deals with everyday buildup. Post-construction cleaning is focused on the fine dust a renovation leaves behind, which gets into places a normal clean doesn’t touch, like inside cabinets, vents and window tracks.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the size of the space and the kind of work that was done. We’ll give you a free, no-obligation estimate. Call or text 908-800-2040 or use the form on this page.
