As a general guide: After builders cleaning typically costs 1.5-2.5x the price of a standard deep clean for the same property size, due to the specialized equipment, products, and extra time required.

We use professional-grade, industrial equipment specifically designed for post-construction cleaning:

Dust and debris removal:

  • HEPA-filter vacuums – Capture fine construction dust particles (99.97% filtration)
  • Industrial wet/dry vacuums – Handle larger debris and wet materials
  • Microfiber cloths and mops – Trap dust rather than spread it

Surface cleaning:

  • Specialized solvents – Remove paint splatters, plaster, adhesives, and sealants
  • Scrapers and blades – Safely remove stubborn residues from glass and hard surfaces
  • Professional degreasers – Clean construction oils and residues

Floor care:

  • Steam cleaners – Deep clean and sanitize hard floors
  • Floor polishers – Restore shine to hard flooring
  • Carpet extractors – Remove embedded dust from carpets

Safety equipment:

  • Protective gear for our team (masks, gloves, eye protection)
  • Dust containment systems to prevent spread during cleaning

All equipment is professional-grade and maintained to the highest standards.x the price of a standard deep clean for the same property size, due to the specialized equipment, products, and extra time required.

Yes, absolutely. We specialize in post-construction cleaning and have extensive experience handling heavy dust and debris from all types of building work.

What we can handle:

  • Fine construction dust (drywall, plaster, cement)
  • Paint splatters and overspray
  • Adhesive and sealant residues
  • Sawdust and wood shavings
  • Grout and tile residue
  • Protective film and tape marks
  • Concrete dust and debris
  • Insulation particles

Our approach for heavy-duty cleaning:

  1. Initial assessment – We evaluate the extent of work needed
  2. Staged cleaning – Multiple passes to progressively remove all dust and debris
  3. HEPA filtration – Industrial vacuums prevent dust recirculation
  4. Specialized products – Professional-grade solvents and cleaners
  5. Final inspection – Thorough check to ensure every surface is clean

For extremely heavy-duty situations, we may recommend a two-stage clean: an initial clean to remove bulk dust and debris, followed by a detailed deep clean a few days later. This ensures the best possible results.

What we need from you:

Essential:

  • All construction work completed – Builders, electricians, and tradespeople should be finished
  • Large debris removed – Building materials, tools, and equipment cleared by builders
  • Water and electricity available – Essential for our equipment
  • Safe access – Ensure we can safely enter and move around the property

Helpful (but not required):

  • Remove or protect any items you don’t want us to clean or move
  • Let us know about any particularly delicate or valuable surfaces
  • Inform us if protective coverings (plastic, paper) are still in place
  • Advise us of any areas needing extra attention

What we’ll handle:

  • Fine dust on all surfaces
  • Cleaning windows, floors, and fixtures
  • Removing paint splatters and plaster marks
  • Wiping down walls, skirting boards, and doors
  • Cleaning kitchen and bathroom fixtures
  • Removing protective films and tape residues

Important: If there’s still active construction dust being generated (e.g., sanding ongoing), it’s best to wait until all work is complete. Otherwise, we may need to return for a follow-up clean.

Best timing: Wait 24-48 hours after all construction work is completed and tradespeople have left.

Why wait?

  • Allows dust to settle fully (especially fine plaster/drywall dust)
  • Ensures paint, sealants, and adhesives are fully dry
  • Avoids interference from workers or ongoing projects
  • Prevents us having to re-clean areas that builders are still working in

Booking timeline:

  • Advance booking: As soon as you know your construction end date, book your clean
  • Short notice: Call (01) 504 9407 – we can often accommodate same-week or even next-day bookings for after builders cleaning
  • Flexible rescheduling: If construction runs late, we can reschedule at no charge (with 24 hours’ notice)

For new builds or major renovations: We recommend scheduling your clean 2-3 days after the final inspection or handover date. This ensures all snags are addressed first.

For most after builders projects, one thorough clean is sufficient to get your property looking pristine.

One visit is typically enough for:

  • Light to medium renovation work (painting, new kitchen/bathroom, flooring)
  • Projects where builders used protective coverings
  • Work that’s been completed for 24-48 hours (dust has settled)
  • Properties where large debris has been removed by builders

A follow-up visit may be recommended for:

  • Heavy structural work – Major renovations with extensive dust
  • Very large properties – Where one intensive clean may not be practical
  • Urgent timelines – If you need to move in quickly, we do a rapid first clean then return for details
  • Persistent dust – In rare cases, fine dust continues to settle after our initial clean

Our approach:

  1. We’ll assess the property when providing your quote
  2. Let you know if we anticipate needing a follow-up visit
  3. Our team will inspect at the end of the first clean
  4. If a follow-up is needed, we’ll discuss timing and any additional cost

Satisfaction guarantee: If you’re not happy with any aspect of the clean, contact us within 24 hours and we’ll return free of charge to address it.nspection or handover date. This ensures all snags are addressed first.
