Post-Construction Cleaning
Interior cleaning after new construction or a renovation: fine dust, windows, floors, cabinets and trim, plus removal of light debris, so the house is ready for the owner.
The short answer
When the last trade packs up, the house is still not ready. Drywall sanding leaves fine dust on every surface, inside cabinets and on top of door frames. Windows have stickers, paint specks and caulk smears. Floors carry footprints, grout haze and bits of debris, and the corners are full of offcuts and packaging.
Post construction cleaning takes the house from job site to move-in ready. We clean from the top down so dust does not resettle on surfaces already done: high ledges and trim first, then cabinets, counters, windows and fixtures, and the floors last. Light construction debris is bagged and removed.
Builders and general contractors use this service to hand over a finished home that looks finished, which makes the final walkthrough with the owner go smoothly. Homeowners use it after a kitchen, bathroom or basement renovation, when the dust has spread through half the house. We come from construction ourselves, so we know what a job site leaves behind and how to clean it without damaging new finishes.
Regular house cleaning deals with everyday dirt. Construction dust is finer and gets everywhere: inside closed cabinets, in light fixtures, on top of every door and window frame and deep in the corners. It takes several passes, the right vacuums and microfiber, and a top-down order to actually remove it instead of moving it around.
New finishes also need care. Fresh hardwood, tile, stone countertops and new fixtures can be scratched or stained by the wrong product or a rough pad. We use methods suited to each surface and ask about anything special, like a floor finish that is still curing.
For builders and general contractors, we schedule the clean after the trades are done and before the owner walkthrough or closing. A clean, dust-free house supports the quality of the work everyone put into it. We can also tidy the exterior work area of light debris so the lot looks as finished as the house.
For homeowners, renovation dust rarely stays in the room that was renovated. We clean the work area and the rooms the dust traveled into, so you get your home back, not just the new kitchen or bathroom.

It depends on the size of the home, how much dust and debris is left, the number of windows and bathrooms and whether it is a full new build or one renovated area. As a rough market range, post construction cleaning often runs about $0.20 to $0.60 per square foot. Your free estimate gives you the real number.
After the trades are finished, including paint touch-ups and flooring, and before the owner walkthrough or move-in. If the work is still going on, dust will come back, so timing matters.
We remove light debris such as offcuts, packaging and bagged trash from inside the house. Large volumes of construction waste or dumpster loads are a separate job, and we can talk about it during the estimate.
