Hear from Our Customers
You’ve invested months and thousands into your construction project. The last thing you want is to spend weeks cleaning up after contractors who left dust in every corner and debris scattered throughout your space.
When we’re done, you’ll walk into a home that’s actually ready to live in. No construction dust floating through the air when you turn on the heat. No gritty surfaces or mysterious particles on your countertops. No debris hiding in places you didn’t even know existed.
Your space will be clean, safe, and move-in ready. You can unpack your boxes, arrange your furniture, and start enjoying what you built – instead of spending your evenings with a dustpan and vacuum.
We’ve been handling the messy aftermath of construction projects across Silver Lake and the greater Boston area for over a decade. We’re a family-owned business that understands what it takes to transform a construction site into a livable space.
We’ve cleaned everything from Silver Lake’s classic 1940s homes getting modern updates to new construction projects throughout Wilmington and Tewksbury. What sets us apart is our commitment to using family-safe, eco-friendly products and our reputation for not missing a single detail.
In Silver Lake’s tight housing market where property values matter and homes are investments, we deliver the thorough, professional post-construction cleaning your space deserves. Our clients consistently tell us we go above and beyond their expectations.
We start with a rough clean to tackle the obvious mess – removing debris, wiping down surfaces, and getting rid of the bulk of construction dust. This isn’t your typical surface cleaning. We’re dealing with adhesive residue, paint overspray, and drywall dust that’s settled on every surface.
Next comes the detail work. Construction dust has a way of getting into places you’d never expect – inside light fixtures, along baseboards, in air vents, behind appliances. We use specialized equipment to find and remove every trace of dust and debris, including cleaning your ventilation system so you’re not breathing construction particles for months.
Finally, we do a touch-up cleaning about a week later. Even after thorough post-construction cleaning, some dust can resettle as your home’s air circulation normalizes. This final step ensures your space stays pristine and ready for you to enjoy without any lingering construction remnants.

Our post-construction cleaning covers everything contractors leave behind. We remove all debris and trash, clean walls from floor to ceiling, and restore windows to crystal clarity. Kitchen and bathroom surfaces get special attention – these areas collect the most construction dust and require thorough sanitization with our eco-friendly products.
We clean inside cabinets, wipe down all fixtures, and ensure your floors are spotless whether they’re hardwood, tile, or carpet. Air vents get cleaned out, light fixtures get detailed, and baseboards get the attention they need. We even clean up paint splatters and remove any stickers or protective films left on appliances.
In Silver Lake’s established neighborhoods, where many homes undergo renovations to update older properties built between 1940-1999, we understand the unique challenges of working around quality finishes and fixtures. Our team uses the right techniques and family-safe cleaning products to clean thoroughly without damaging your investment.
Most post-construction cleaning projects in Silver Lake take between 4-8 hours, depending on the scope of your construction work and the size of your home. A bathroom renovation might need 3-4 hours of deep cleaning, while a whole-house project could require a full day or multiple visits.
We always provide a free estimate after seeing your space, so you’ll know exactly what to expect. For larger projects, we can schedule the work over multiple days to minimize disruption. The key is giving us enough time to do the job right – rushing through post-construction cleaning just means you’ll be finding dust and debris for weeks afterward.
Absolutely. Post-construction cleaning is much more intensive than regular cleaning services. Construction dust is finer and more pervasive than everyday dust – it gets into places regular cleaning never addresses. We’re also dealing with debris, adhesive residue, paint overspray, and potentially hazardous particles that require specialized equipment and techniques.
Regular cleaning maintains an already-clean space. Post-construction cleaning transforms a construction site into a livable home. We use commercial-grade vacuums with HEPA filters, specialized cleaning solutions for different types of residue, and techniques designed specifically for construction cleanup. It’s heavy-duty work that requires experience and the right equipment to do safely.
The main thing is to make sure all construction work is completely finished before we arrive. We can’t effectively clean around ongoing work, and dust will just resettle on areas we’ve already cleaned. Make sure contractors have removed their tools, equipment, and any large debris.
You don’t need to do any cleaning yourself – that’s what we’re here for. Just ensure we have access to all areas that need cleaning, including turning on electricity so we can test and clean light fixtures, fans, and other electrical components. If you have any particularly delicate items or surfaces you’re concerned about, point them out when we do our initial walkthrough.
Yes, cleaning your ventilation system is a crucial part of post-construction cleaning that many homeowners overlook. Construction dust gets sucked into your HVAC system and can circulate throughout your home for months if not properly addressed. We clean accessible ductwork, replace filters, and ensure your system isn’t spreading construction particles every time it runs.
This is especially important in Silver Lake’s older homes where HVAC systems might be more susceptible to dust accumulation. We use specialized equipment to remove dust from vents and accessible ductwork. For extensive ductwork cleaning, we can recommend certified HVAC cleaning specialists, but we handle the standard vent and filter cleaning that’s part of most post-construction cleaning services.
Yes, we exclusively use eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products that are safe for children and pets. This is one of our key differentiators – many cleaning companies use harsh chemicals that can be particularly problematic after construction when your home’s air quality is already compromised by dust and particles.
Our family-safe products are just as effective at removing construction debris, dust, and residue, but they won’t leave behind chemical odors or residues that could affect your family’s health. You can feel confident having your children and pets in the space immediately after we finish cleaning. This commitment to safe products is especially important for post-construction cleaning when you’re already dealing with potential air quality concerns.
We can typically start within 24-48 hours of your construction completion, but the key is making sure all work is truly finished. Starting too early means we’ll be cleaning around ongoing work, and dust will just resettle on areas we’ve already cleaned. We need contractors completely out with all their equipment and materials removed.
We offer flexible scheduling and understand that construction timelines can be unpredictable. Once you know your completion date, give us a call and we’ll work with your schedule. For larger projects, we sometimes do an initial rough clean while minor finishing work continues, then return for the detailed cleaning once everything is complete. The goal is getting you into your clean, safe space as quickly as possible without compromising the quality of our work.
