Why Is Construction Site Cleaning Important?
Construction sites, including small renovations or additions, often generate significant amounts of dust, debris, and potentially harmful chemicals that are dangerous to inhale or come into contact with. Thorough cleaning removes these hazards, creating a healthier and safer environment.
Here are a few other reasons why construction site cleaning is important:
- Property protection: Dust and debris can damage surfaces like floors, windows, and fixtures if they aren’t cleaned properly. Our professional cleaning helps preserve your property’s value.
- Aesthetics: A clean and organized space is more appealing and inviting. Thorough cleaning makes your newly constructed or renovated space look its best.
- Compliance: Residential and commercial building codes typically specify cleanliness requirements before a property can be occupied.
- Preparation for use: Our post-construction cleaning prepares your space for its intended use, whether that’s moving in furniture, opening a business, or handing over the property.
- First impressions: For commercial spaces, or if you’re selling your home, a clean and well-maintained space creates a positive first impression for clients and potential buyers.
What Are Some Key Areas Post-Renovation Cleaning Can Address?
Dust and debris can often find their way into light fixtures, along baseboards, or in other hard-to-reach areas. To ensure a thorough clean, we typically start with a rough clean to remove large debris and loose dirt. We follow this with a detailed cleaning, focusing on floors, walls, and fixtures.
Here’s how we address a few key areas:
- Walls and ceilings: We dust and wipe down all surfaces, including baseboards and molding, then carefully clean any paint spills or smudges with appropriate cleaners.
- Windows and glass surfaces: We use glass cleaners and microfiber cloths to remove dust, stickers, and smudges, also ensuring window tracks and sills are dust-free.
- Cabinets and shelving: We clean inside and out, removing construction dust and debris, then polish surfaces to remove fingerprints and smudges.
- Doors and door frames: We wipe down all surfaces, focusing on removing dust, fingerprints, and construction marks. Then, we thoroughly clean doorknobs and hinges.
- Fixtures and appliances: We wipe down and polish metal, glass, and other surfaces, then remove protective coverings and clean underneath.

How Can Construction Cleaning Affect the Results of an Inspection?
Thorough cleaning allows inspectors to accurately assess the quality of workmanship, the condition of the finishes, and the functionality of installed systems. These inspections typically come into play at various stages, such as before a final walkthrough or prior to a formal inspection for occupancy permits.
A clean, debris-free environment not only facilitates these inspections but also increases the likelihood of passing them, as cleanliness allows for a clearer view of any possible problems that need addressing before your project is complete.
How Do You Handle Dust Removal After Construction?
Dust is an inevitable construction byproduct. Despite the efforts of contractors to minimize dust accumulation, such as with temporary partitions, dust can easily escape. In cases where dust control measures were inadequate or neglected, post-construction dust levels can be even greater.
We often need to use industrial-grade HEPA vacuums to remove dust from floors, walls, and ceilings. These vacuums capture fine particles that regular vacuums might miss, preventing them from becoming airborne again.
If you’ve had significant drywall work, our cleaners often start by dry dusting surfaces with microfiber cloths, which are effective at trapping dust without spreading it. After the initial dusting, we follow up with damp wiping to capture any remaining particles, especially on your countertops or windows. In areas where dust has settled into crevices, like baseboards or between floorboards, we can use tools like crevice attachments for vacuums or small brushes to reach these tight spaces.
How Soon After a Construction Project Do You Need Cleaning?
Deep cleaning is required when your construction project is complete, before any final inspections and occupancy. The longer you wait to remove dust and debris, the more can settle and become embedded in surfaces. This can make them harder to remove, and potentially cause damage.
Also, the sooner you have your new space cleaned, the sooner you can use new rooms. It can be dangerous to attempt to use your new space without proper cleaning, as screws, nails, debris, and other material can linger. Dust is also carcinogenic, so it’s essential to clear it for a healthy environment.
Deep Post-Construction Cleanup
On occasion, you may need a deeper post-construction cleanup to get the pristine results you want. If your remodel is done and there are stains on your carpets or a thick layer of construction grime on fixtures in kitchen areas and restrooms— we can help! Here’s how we take your post-construction cleanup to the next level:
- Carpet shampooing, spot treating, and cleaning
- Floor burnishing and waxing
- Baseboard damp cleans
- Upholstery spot removal and cleans
How Much Does Post-Construction Cleaning Cost?
Construction projects can be extensive. New constructions, for example, have multiple floors and spaces that require cleaning. Other projects can be quite small, like a single-bathroom renovation. Post-construction cleaning costs reflect the size of your project and depend on the scope of work required.
Here are a few factors that determine cost:
- Size of the space: Larger spaces will require more time, generally leading to higher costs.
- Extent of the construction: More extensive construction projects may leave behind more debris and require more specialized cleaning techniques.
- Cleaning requirements: The specific cleaning needs, such as the level of dust and debris removal, will affect the cost.
How Long Does a Post-Construction Cleaning Company Take?
The primary factor in the post-construction cleaning timeline is the size of your project. For example, a small project like a single-room renovation might take just a few hours to complete, during which we focus on dust removal, wiping down surfaces, and cleaning windows and floors.
In contrast, a larger project like a newly constructed multi-floor building, can take several days. An extended timeline is often required to thoroughly clean each floor, address areas like baseboards and ceilings, and ensure that all surfaces are free of dust, debris, and construction residue.
How Do You Clean Different Floor Types After Construction?
Construction debris and residue can settle on different surfaces differently, requiring a unique approach, especially for floor types. For example, carpets, if they weren’t rolled up and put aside properly, can absorb dust and paint splatters, often requiring a combination of vacuuming and steam cleaning.
Hardwood floors, on the other hand, may be more susceptible to scratches and gouges from construction equipment while tiles can stain or become discolored. For these surfaces, we often combine sweeping and vacuuming to remove dirt, then mop with an appropriate cleaner for the floor type.
