What this covers
Post-construction cleaning is the clean carried out once building or renovation work is finished and before the home is lived in again. It covers removing cement and plaster dust, paint splashes, adhesive and grout from floors, glass and window frames, and then washing everything thoroughly. It differs from regular cleaning because it uses industrial vacuums, scrapers and products matched to each surface.
What people ask for most
- Vacuuming cement dust throughout the home
- Removing paint splashes from glass
- Grout and adhesive left on tiles
- New window frames and sliding tracks
- Newly fitted bathrooms and sanitaryware
- Washing floors after screed work
- Fine clean before handover
- Inside cupboards and fitted wardrobes
Timing and emergencies
The right moment is after all dusty trades have finished and before the furniture arrives. Clean too early and the dust settles again, so you pay twice. Plan for more than one pass: fine dust keeps falling from walls and ceilings for days, especially in damp weather, and only the second clean truly holds.
How to choose well
- Check they bring an industrial vacuum with a proper filter, not household kit
- Agree in writing whether removing rubble and bags is included
- Ask which products they use on natural stone, wood and coated aluminium
- Settle from the start how many passes are planned and on what days
