Post-Construction Cleaning in Maryland & Washington, DC
Construction dust does not stay where the work happened. It settles into vents, window tracks, light fixtures, and every horizontal surface in the building, and it keeps reappearing until someone removes it properly. Post-construction cleaning is a systematic, multi-pass job — and it is what turns a finished renovation into a space you can actually use.
Who this service is for
- Homeowners finishing a renovation or addition
- General contractors delivering a completed project
- Landlords and property managers after a unit rebuild
- Builders preparing a new home for handover
Why clients book it
Multi-pass dust removal
Fine drywall dust needs more than one pass. We work high to low and return to surfaces as airborne dust resettles.
Protects new finishes
New floors, counters, and fixtures are cleaned with methods appropriate to the material, not a one-size-fits-all product.
Handover ready
The property is left in a condition you can photograph, show, or hand to a client.
Coordinated with your trades
We schedule after the last trade leaves so the clean is not undone the next morning.

A documented scope for your space means the same result every visit.

Upfront pricing, confirmed arrival windows, and a real person to reach.
Post-Construction Cleaning questions, answered
What does post-construction cleaning include?
Removal of fine construction dust from all surfaces, residue and sticker removal, vent and fixture detailing, window tracks and glass, cabinet interiors, and a full floor clean — usually in multiple passes.
How is it different from a deep clean?
A deep clean addresses household buildup. Post-construction cleaning addresses drywall dust and building residue, which is finer, more widespread, and requires repeated passes and different methods.
When should the clean be scheduled?
After the final trade has finished. Cleaning before punch-list work is complete usually means paying for it twice.
Do you remove construction debris?
We remove residual debris and can coordinate hauling as an add-on. Large-volume demolition debris should be handled by your contractor's disposal service.
Can you clean after a partial renovation?
Yes. Single-room renovations such as kitchens and bathrooms are common, including the surrounding rooms where dust travelled.
