Top After Builders Cleaning related questions

What you’ll pay depends on how much building work was done and how big the space is. A single-room refit leaves far less dust and debris than a full renovation. The price also depends on the surfaces involved, whether waste needs taking away, and whether you need windows, carpets or upholstery cleaned too.

An after builders clean usually takes longer than a standard or deep clean, so it’s typically priced above regular house cleaning or office cleaning. To get a price for your space, post your task with the property size, the work that was done and anything that needs removing, then compare offers from after builders cleaners near you.

Not necessarily. When booking a post-renovation cleaning service, your Tasker can bring the necessary cleaning supplies, equipment, and detergents with them so they can proceed with the task as soon as they arrive. However, if you prefer to have them use your own supplies, just let them know beforehand.

This activity isn’t exactly a breeze. It requires a lot of dusting, wiping, mopping, and vacuuming—plus, it would take a lot of your energy and time. If this doesn’t sound ideal for you, you can always book someone proficient in an after builders cleaning service on Airtasker through a few clicks.

Begin by preparing a cleaning solution, consisting of water and vinegar, diluted dishwashing liquid, or select glass cleaning chemicals. You will need to wipe each pane from top to bottom, and dry it with a microfibre cloth or newspaper. Depending on the dirtiness of the window, you may have to wash it twice or use an ammonia-based cleaner to remove tough stains. You will also need to clean the screens and wipe the window sills and frames.

Unless specified in your contract, you cannot expect builders to clean up after themselves. It’s usually up to the property’s owner to take care of the site once the builders leave. While you can choose to dust, vacuum, and polish the newly-built area, you can also hire a cleaning expert to handle this job for you.

It depends on how messy and big your place is. But since it's more than just a deep or maintenance clean, it would typically take

several hours to clean after a renovation. We recommend blocking half a day for this particular task, so your Tasker can make sure that every inch of your place is squeaky clean.


It can take over 12 hours to clean a 4-bedroom house.

With post-renovation cleaning services, you need to know if your potential cleaners have the appropriate supplies and equipment required to tidy up specific renovated properties. Also, take note of their scheduling availability and flexibility, as it’s ideal to have them on stand-by during renovation day. You can also scroll through reviews and ratings, so you can better gauge if they suit your needs.

On the platform, you can connect with Taskers specifically for move-in cleaning, end-of-tenancy cleaning, and even housekeeping, among others.

Usually an after builders clean, which goes further than a standard deep clean. Building work leaves fine dust in places a deep clean doesn’t normally reach, like vents, door tops, inside cupboards and window tracks, plus residue such as paint spots, plaster, grout haze and adhesive that needs specific products to remove.

A standard or deep clean may be enough after small jobs that created little dust, like fitting a new tap or painting one room. Any sanding, plastering, tiling, demolition or knocking through walls calls for an after builders clean. If you’re unsure, describe the work in your task post and after builders cleaners can recommend the right scope in their offers.

What do after builders cleaning services include?

After a huge house or workplace repair, how do you clean up the remaining traces? Hiring professional after builders cleaning services can help maintain the quality of your space post-major revamp. Cleaners after building work focus on dusting, vacuuming, and polishing your home or office to get rid of unnecessary elements. Fixtures, switches, sockets, surfaces, woodwork, and hard floors also get cleaned.

Before booking after builders cleaners, take a look at these inclusions:

Dusting ducts, vents, and grates

The first step in post-renovation cleaning starts with removing all large pieces of debris, renovation material leftovers, and tools left by the workers. Typically, specialists do this after installing the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. The most crucial part? Cleaning the grates and vents.

Dust and debris can stay in the air and easily access vents, so it’s a must for the Tasker to remove the vent covers from the walls and ceilings, clean with soap and warm water, and dry them up. They can also replace any exposed air filters with fresh ones before changing the covers, as breathing unfiltered air can lead to allergies and respiratory issues.

Cleaning rooms, fixtures, and furniture

The next phase? Deep-cleaning the kitchen, bathroom, and other nearby areas affected by the renovation.

For windows, your hired expert will wipe down and polish the insides—including the window sills and frames—plus wash and dry the screens.

They can also remove the dust and dirt from your doors, as well as their frames and handles. A lot of unnecessary elements get trapped in the skirting board as well, so the specialist is expected to freshen up your walls and other surfaces. Say goodbye to mouldings, too.

Your Tasker can also clean the affected fixtures and appliances like lights, switches, sinks, toilets, stoves, and backsplashes. Dust and dirt make their way into your furniture like cabinets and closets, so it’s important to take out everything stored inside and wipe the interior shelves, especially those hard-to-reach corners.

Vacuuming upholstery and floors

You may not notice it, but dirty particles can brew in upholstered furniture. Allowing dust to settle after a major revamp can lead to ugly and damaging results. When they are left between the fabric fibres, dust loosens the weave and leads to wear and tear of the material. Your Tasker can vacuum all soft surfaces, each furniture cushion, as well as underlying frames.

Making the floor squeaky clean caps off the after builders cleaning session, as this is where most dirt and debris end up. This involves cleaning paint spots, plaster, footprints, and other stains. They can sweep away large chunks of building materials, screws or bits of sawdust before running the vacuum.

Don’t forget to tell your Tasker about the kind of floor you have, so they can prepare accordingly. You can also request them to deep-clean your stairs and hallways, and even polish your tiles.

After builders cleaning checklist

A professional after builders clean works from the top of each room down, so dust that falls is picked up at the end rather than spread again. Use this checklist to agree what’s included before the job starts:

  • Debris and dust removal: building waste, offcuts, packaging and loose fixings cleared; fine dust vacuumed from every surface, including ledges, door tops and inside cupboards; vents and extractor grilles cleaned.

  • Glass and windows: frames, sills and tracks cleaned, and paint spots, plaster splashes and sticker residue removed from glass.

  • Tiles and grout: grout haze and adhesive marks lifted, and grout lines scrubbed. For heavy staining, book tile and grout cleaning separately.

  • Worktops, timber and painted surfaces: wiped with products suited to each surface. Abrasive pads can scratch new worktops, timber floors and fresh paint.

  • Fixtures and fittings: switches, sockets, light fittings, handles, skirting boards and door frames dusted and wiped.

  • Kitchens and bathrooms: appliances, sinks, taps, toilets, showers and splashbacks cleaned inside and out.

  • Floors: swept and vacuumed to lift grit, then hard floors mopped (often twice to remove all dust), and carpets vacuumed thoroughly.
