Post-Construction Cleaning Isn’t Like Regular Cleaning

Why Post-Construction Cleaning Isn’t Like Regular Cleaning (And Why It’s Pricier)

Renovation finished? The mess isn’t. Post-construction cleanup takes more than mops and dusters — here's what you're really paying for.

So your remodel is done. The contractors are gone. You’re ready to move in… until you see the layers of dust, smudges, glue, paint splatter, and more.

Regular cleaning won’t cut it. And here's why post-construction cleaning costs more — and needs a different level of expertise.

🔸 It’s Not Just Dust — It’s Microdust

After a remodel, drywall particles, sawdust, and concrete residue linger in the air and settle into corners, blinds, vents, and electronics.

These particles are invisible but dangerous, especially for people with asthma, pets, or allergies. Regular vacuums can't trap them — we use HEPA-filter equipment for this exact reason.

🔸 More Surfaces, More Risk

Post-construction cleans involve more than floors:

  • ✔️ Scraping dried paint or caulk off windows
  • ✔️ Removing adhesives from new countertops or appliances
  • ✔️ Wiping construction grime off trim without damaging new paint
  • ✔️ Cleaning brand new tile without scratching the sealant

One wrong tool = permanent damage.

🔸 We Bring Specialized Equipment

Our post-construction kits include:

  • 🧽 HEPA vacuums for micro-particles
  • 🧼 Low-pH, non-abrasive cleaners for new surfaces
  • 🪣 Extra filtration and cloth changes to avoid cross-contamination
  • 📸 Photo documentation (before and after) for realtors and contractors

This isn't your grandma’s mop job.

🔸 It's Physically Tougher

There’s more climbing, lifting, and detailing involved. New cabinets and windows need to be cleaned from inside and out — often with plastic removal or protective wrap involved.

Many teams won't touch post-construction jobs because they take 2–3x longer and require precision. We love them because we’re trained for them.

📍 Real-World Example: Denver Basement Remodel

Contractor left behind:

  • – Dust on every vertical surface
  • – Sawdust in HVAC vents
  • – Sticky residue on new floors from painter’s tape

Our team removed over 5 gallons of waste, cleaned top-to-bottom in 5 hours, and prepped the home for a next-day showing — spotless.
