What post-construction cleanup covers
After the crews leave, the dust stays. Fine drywall dust. Sawdust. It coats each surface — desks, sills, vents, lights, door tops. It hides in tracks and clings to glass.
We clear it all. HEPA vacuuming on each surface. Damp wiping to catch the rest. Debris and trash hauled out. Stickers peeled from glass and fixtures. Floors vacuumed, mopped, and edged. Restrooms set for move-in.
Why regular cleaning is not enough
A standard visit fights daily dirt. Build dust is a foe apart — finer, thicker, and in spots daily lists never check. It needs a dedicated cleanup with the right gear. Skip it and dust keeps surfacing for months.
How it works: our process
Build cleans run in five steps. Timing is all.
- Site visit. We walk the build. We scope dust, debris, and detail work.
- Scope set. You get a punch list and a price. Each task named.
- Date locked. After the last trade. We sync with your GC.
- Detail clean. Top to bottom. Vents to floors. Nothing skipped.
- Final walk. We tour with you. Dust found gets wiped on the spot.
How to prep for us
Clear the trades out first. Each trade done means no new dust. One straggler can undo a day.
Power and water must be on. We need both to run gear. Tell us if either is off.
Point out the fragile spots. Fresh paint. New glass. We treat them with care.
Plan the handoff. We clean, you walk, then staff moves in. Give each step its day.
Timing
Book the final clean when all trades are done. If crews drift back in, dust drifts back too. For long jobs, we do a rough mid-clean plus the final detail.
Then start regular service
Dust zones most crews miss
Vents hide dust deep. We vacuum each vent. Covers come off and get wiped.
Door tops collect thick dust. We wipe each one. High dusting hits them all.
Light fixtures hold dust in lenses. We wipe them clean. Rooms get brighter.
Window tracks pack with grit. We vacuum and wipe each track. Sills get edged.
Inside cabinets holds dust too. We wipe shelves and drawers. New storage starts clean.
Behind toilets and pipes hides grime. We reach it all. No zone skipped.
Common build-clean surprises
Paint overspray hides on glass. We scrape it safe. Blades on glass, never on film.
Stickers bake in sun. Orlando heat fuses glue. We soften and peel.
Dust lives in vents. We clean vents and covers. Full ducts need HVAC crews.
Grout haze coats new tile. It looks like dust but is not. We wash it off.
Floor guards leave residue. Tape and paper glue down. We lift it all.
New carpet sheds fuzz. First vacuums fill fast. We run extra passes.
Touch-up paint dots appear. We flag them. Your painter owns those.
Sawdust packs window tracks. We dig it out. Tracks run clean.
Restrooms test last. We run each fixture. Leaks get flagged to the GC.
Surprises cost time. We scope them on the visit. No surprise bills.
