Why after builders cleaning needs specialists
Building and renovation work creates fine dust that settles on every surface, inside cupboards, on light fittings and in the air. A household vacuum spreads it around and can be damaged by it. Paint splashes, plaster marks, grout haze, sticker residue and adhesive need the right products and techniques to remove without scratching new surfaces.
Our after builders clean uses HEPA-filter vacuums that trap fine dust, along with specialist products and tools that lift residue safely from glass, tiles, worktops and flooring.
What is included
We clean every room from the top down, so dust falls onto areas we have not cleaned yet rather than onto finished surfaces:
- Fine dust removed from walls, ceilings, light fittings, sockets, switches and radiators.
- Paint, plaster and grout splashes lifted from floors, glass, frames and fittings.
- Windows, frames, sills and tracks cleaned inside, and outside where reachable safely.
- Kitchen units cleaned inside and out, with protective films and labels removed.
- Bathrooms detailed, including grout haze removed from new tiles.
- HEPA-filter vacuuming of every floor, then hard floors mopped.
- Building debris bagged for disposal.
Cleaning around trades
If work is still going on, we can clean in stages: a builders clean once the main work is finished, then a final sparkle clean before you move back in or hand over to a client. We work with homeowners, builders, developers and interior designers across Croydon, and can work to tight handover dates.
After builders cleaning across Croydon's neighbourhoods
In Addiscombe, Broad Green, Selhurst, South Norwood, Thornton Heath and nearby, homes are mostly Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many split into flats. A deep clean in a period home covers picture rails, ceiling roses, sash windows and behind radiators where Victorian dust collects.
In Coulsdon, Norbury, Selsdon, Shirley, Waddon, homes are mostly 1920s and 30s semi-detached houses and bungalows. In family homes we move light furniture, clean behind sofas and appliances, and descale every bathroom and the kitchen.
In Croydon, South Croydon, homes are mostly a mix of period terraces, semis and modern flats. We tailor the deep clean to your home, with extra time for the kitchen and bathrooms where it matters most.
In Kenley, Purley, Sanderstead, homes are mostly large detached and period family homes. Larger homes get a team big enough to deep clean every room, including high skirting, staircases and wooden floors.
