Construction dust isn’t just messy—it’s a health hazard. Fine silica particles and construction debris can penetrate deep into your lungs, causing respiratory problems that develop over time. When your project wraps up, you shouldn’t have to worry about dust circulating through your home every time you turn on the heat.
That’s where professional post-construction cleaning makes the difference. You get a space that’s truly move-in ready, not just swept clean. No more dust settling on your new surfaces or floating through the air when you close a cabinet door.
Your investment deserves protection from day one. With proper construction cleanup, your new finishes stay pristine, your air stays clean, and your family stays safe from the hidden dangers that construction projects leave behind.
We’ve been serving Kenwood, MA and surrounding communities for over a decade, specializing in the thorough removal of construction dust and debris that other cleaning companies often miss. As a family-owned business, we understand what it means to create a truly safe environment for your family.
We’ve seen how construction projects in Kenwood’s mix of historic homes and new developments create unique challenges. Whether you’re renovating a classic New England home or finishing a modern build, construction dust doesn’t discriminate—it gets everywhere and poses real health risks.
Our team uses only eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products because we believe your newly finished space shouldn’t come with chemical concerns. We’re bonded and insured, and every job comes with our satisfaction guarantee because your peace of mind matters as much as the cleaning itself.
Our post-construction cleaning process starts with a detailed assessment of your space to identify dust accumulation areas and safety concerns. We don’t just clean what’s visible—we target the places where construction dust hides and causes long-term problems.
First, we perform a rough clean to remove large debris and visible dust from all surfaces. This includes construction materials, adhesive residue, and paint overspray that contractors often leave behind. We use specialized equipment designed for construction cleanup, not standard household cleaning tools.
Next comes the detailed clean where we address the microscopic particles that cause health problems. Our HEPA-filtered vacuums capture 99.97% of particles, including the dangerous silica dust that regular vacuums blow back into the air. We clean from ceiling to floor systematically to prevent re-contamination.
Finally, we handle your HVAC system—cleaning vents, replacing filters, and ensuring your heating and cooling systems won’t circulate construction dust throughout your home. We return about a week later for a touch-up cleaning to catch any settling dust, ensuring your space stays pristine.

Our post-construction cleaning service covers every aspect of construction cleanup that matters for Kenwood properties. We remove all dust and debris from surfaces, clean interior windows, sanitize bathrooms and kitchens, and perform detailed floor cleaning including waxing when needed.
Kenwood’s construction projects often involve older homes with unique architectural features that require careful attention. We clean crown molding, wainscoting, and detailed woodwork without damaging delicate finishes. For newer constructions, we ensure that modern surfaces like quartz countertops and luxury vinyl flooring are properly cleaned and protected.
We also understand the seasonal challenges that affect construction cleanup in Massachusetts. Winter projects often create additional moisture and salt concerns, while summer renovations can spread dust throughout homes with open windows. Our cleaning methods adapt to these local conditions.
Every service includes comprehensive dust removal from light fixtures, ceiling fans, and ductwork—areas where construction dust accumulates and continues causing problems long after contractors leave. We coordinate with your project timeline, working around final inspections and move-in dates to ensure everything is ready when you need it.
Construction dust poses serious health risks that many homeowners underestimate. Fine silica particles from concrete, drywall, and masonry work can penetrate deep into your lungs, potentially causing silicosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and even lung cancer with prolonged exposure.
The particles are often too small to see but fine enough to breathe in, where they become embedded in lung tissue. Even small amounts of exposure over time can lead to severe health problems. Children, elderly family members, and anyone with existing respiratory conditions face higher risks.
Construction dust also contains other hazardous materials like asbestos from older buildings, wood dust that can trigger asthma, and various chemicals from adhesives and paints. Professional removal isn’t just about cleanliness—it’s about protecting your family’s long-term health.
Post-construction cleaning requires specialized equipment and techniques that regular house cleaning can’t provide. Construction dust contains microscopic particles that standard vacuums actually blow back into the air through their exhaust systems, making the problem worse.
We use HEPA-filtered vacuums that capture 99.97% of particles 0.3 microns and larger, including the dangerous silica dust that causes respiratory problems. Our cleaning process follows a systematic top-to-bottom approach to prevent re-contamination, something that doesn’t happen with typical cleaning methods.
Construction cleanup also involves removing adhesive residue, paint overspray, and drywall compound that require specific cleaning solutions and techniques. We clean inside ductwork and replace HVAC filters because construction dust gets into your ventilation system and continues circulating throughout your home. Regular cleaning services don’t have the equipment or expertise to handle these construction-specific challenges safely and thoroughly.
The timeline depends on your project’s size and the amount of dust and debris generated during construction. A typical single-room renovation might take 4-6 hours for complete cleanup, while whole-house projects can require 1-2 full days for the initial cleaning.
Our three-stage process means we return for a touch-up cleaning about a week after the initial service. This catches any dust that settles after our deep clean and ensures your space stays pristine. Most clients find this follow-up visit takes 2-3 hours.
We coordinate with your construction timeline and can work around final inspections, flooring installations, or move-in dates. If you’re dealing with a large commercial project or extensive renovation, we’ll provide a detailed timeline during our free estimate so you can plan accordingly. The goal is always to have your space completely ready when you need it, without rushing the process or compromising on thoroughness.
Yes, HVAC system cleaning is a crucial part of our post-construction service that many cleaning companies overlook. Construction dust gets sucked into your ventilation system during the project, and it will continue circulating throughout your home every time you run your heating or air conditioning.
We remove vent covers and clean all accessible ductwork, paying special attention to return air vents where dust accumulates heavily. We also replace all HVAC filters with high-quality options because construction dust quickly clogs standard filters, reducing system efficiency and air quality.
For extensive renovations, we recommend having your ductwork professionally cleaned by HVAC specialists after our initial cleanup. We can coordinate with trusted local contractors to ensure your entire system is properly cleaned. This step is especially important in Kenwood’s older homes where ductwork might have accumulated years of dust before your renovation project even began.
Absolutely. We understand that construction projects have tight timelines with inspections, final walk-throughs, and move-in dates that can’t be delayed. We coordinate directly with your contractor to schedule our cleaning at the optimal time—after construction is complete but before your final inspection or occupancy.
Our flexible scheduling means we can work evenings or weekends if needed to meet your deadlines. We’ve worked with contractors throughout the Kenwood area and understand how to stay out of the way while ensuring thorough cleanup. Many contractors actually prefer working with us because they know their clients will be satisfied with the final result.
We provide detailed timelines during our estimate process and maintain communication throughout your project. If construction schedules change, we adjust accordingly. Our goal is to make the transition from construction zone to livable space as smooth as possible, without adding stress to an already complex process.
We serve Kenwood, MA and all surrounding communities within a 20-mile radius, including Waltham, Newton, Watertown, Belmont, and Arlington. Our team is familiar with the unique characteristics of homes and buildings throughout these areas, from historic New England properties to modern constructions.
Each community has different building styles and construction challenges that affect cleanup requirements. Kenwood’s mix of older homes and new developments means we regularly handle everything from Victorian-era renovations with detailed millwork to contemporary builds with modern materials and finishes.
We provide free estimates throughout our service area and can typically schedule initial consultations within 24-48 hours of your call. Our local knowledge means we understand permitting timelines, seasonal construction patterns, and the contractors who work in your neighborhood. This familiarity helps us coordinate more effectively and deliver results that meet local expectations and standards.
