Post Construction Cleaning
Home or business renovations and construction leave substantial physical messes in their wake. The project is only complete when the premise is fully cleaned, inspected, and ready to be occupied. A proper cleaning, though, requires the professional skill of post-construction cleanup.
ABOUT POST CONSTRUCTION CLEANUP
Simply picking up the debris scattered throughout the area is only a minor part of what post-construction cleaners do. The cleaning experts also remove scuff marks on walls, wax floors, scrub windows and, upon inspection, leave the place safe and secure for the homeowner to inhabit holiday rental stays.
Some general contractors perform the post-construction cleaning; but for a deep clean, it is advised to consult experts who are experienced in this specialized niche. Property owners could shell out a hefty sum in order to give their remodeled space a professional clean.
The cost for a post-construction cleaning depends on the size of the space to be addressed. The scale of the clean is also a factor as are the property’s accessibility, location, and overall condition. In general, the average post-construction cleaning cost for residential homeowners is $550.
What do homeowners receive for $550? Building owners can expect the post-construction cleaning to take place in three distinct stages: rough interior clean, final interior clean, and exterior cleanup. The extent of the project will determine if only some of these services need to be performed.
Here’s what’s included in post construction cleanup services.
- Rough Clean A rough clean occurs onsite, just prior to the construction work being finished. Not all construction sites will require a rough clean, but most do, to some degree. Once the construction is complete, workers remove the trash, debris and any hazardous materials left onsite. Before the new floors are installed, the cleaners might clean the plywood or concrete floors to ensure the final installation is spotless and secure. Scrubbing the walls, sweeping, dusting, washing interior windows, and preparing surfaces are also integral to the rough clean process.
- Final Interior Clean After the installation is complete, more thorough cleaning takes place. The final interior cleanup will vary, depending on the type of room to be cleaned. Kitchens and bathrooms featuring cabinetry, countertops, fixtures, and appliances will require a specialized approach. The final interior clean involves cleaning walls and ceilings to remove dust, scuff marks, and smudges. The floors are buffed and waxed, and carpeting is vacuumed. The ducts and vents also undergo cleaning. Once the windows, including tracks and frames, are cleaned, all trash bags are removed.
- Exterior Clean If the construction work was primarily done inside, an exterior clean may be unnecessary. An exterior clean is usually required in the event of large renovations or new builds. This phase prepares the home for landscaping work and paving projects, which enhance the property’s curb appeal.
