Construction cleaning that hands the building over ready.
A new build or major fit-out isn't finished when the last tradie leaves. The space needs a proper post-construction clean before the keys change hands — concrete dust off every horizontal surface, paint flecks off windows, render off fixtures, packaging cleared, fingerprint marks off glass. Most builders try to push this to the cleaner who comes once a fortnight. Wrong tool. Construction cleaning is its own thing.
The crew runs three-stage construction cleans for commercial sites — rough clean during build, builders clean at completion, and detail clean at handover. One quote, one crew, photo-documented sign-off.

Three stages of construction cleaning
Rough clean (during build)
Sweep-outs and rubbish removal during construction to keep the site safe and accessible. Daily or weekly, depending on the build pace.
Builders clean (at completion)
Full remove of construction debris, dust, packaging. Floor strip and seal where required. Windows scraped and washed inside and out. Ready for the next trade or for the detail clean.
Detail clean (at handover)
The final pass before keys change hands. Every surface detailed — skirtings, architraves, switch plates, vents, glass, fixtures. Carpet shampoo where carpets are in. Photo pack at sign-off.
What construction cleaning covers
- Concrete dust removal from every surface
- Window scraping (paint, render, silicone)
- Floor strip, seal, polish — hardfloor and vinyl
- Carpet shampoo on new carpet
- Fixture and fitting detail clean
- Light fitting and grille detail
- Air vent cleaning and filter replacement
- Packaging and rubbish removal
- Cabinet interior detail
- Bathroom and washroom commissioning clean
Why construction cleaning gets botched
Most general cleaners can't do construction cleaning properly. The product spec is different. The equipment is different. The timing windows are different. Common failures:
- General cleaners under-spec the job, then run out of hours mid-clean
- Concrete dust pushed into HVAC systems by using vacuums without HEPA filtration
- Wrong glass-cleaning approach scratches new windows
- Wax and seal not applied at the right cure window
- No photo records, so the builder and PM dispute completion at handover
The crew runs construction cleaning as its own service line — proper kit, proper sequence, photo-documented handover.

Construction cleaning FAQs
How is construction cleaning different from regular commercial cleaning?
Different product, different equipment, different sequence. Construction sites need HEPA-grade vacuums for concrete dust, dedicated glass scrapers, and floor-strip-and-seal equipment. General cleaners run their normal kit and under-deliver.
Can you work alongside the builder or only after?
Both. Rough cleans during build, builders clean at completion, detail clean at handover. Or just the detail clean if other stages are covered.
What is the typical turnaround?
Most builders clean and detail cleans run 1 to 3 days depending on the floor area. Tight deadlines worked around — the crew can run nights and weekends to hit the handover date.
Do you provide compliance documentation?
Photo packs are standard on every job. Specific compliance documents including chemical inventories and waste disposal certificates are available on request — common for medical and food-safe sites.
Can you also handle the make-good when the tenant leaves?
Yes. Make-good and end-of-lease cleans run by the same crew. One supplier across the lease lifecycle — fit-out, recurring clean, make-good.
