You’ve invested time, money, and energy into your construction project. The last thing you want is to spend weeks cleaning up the aftermath. That fine construction dust settling on every surface, debris in corners, and the lingering worry about what’s hiding in your vents.
When we’re done, you get exactly what you envisioned from day one. Clean surfaces you can actually touch without leaving fingerprints. Air that doesn’t make you sneeze. Floors you can walk on barefoot. Windows so clear they disappear.
Your space becomes what it was meant to be – ready for life, work, or whatever comes next. No more postponing that housewarming party or delaying your business opening because of leftover construction mess.
We’ve been serving Old Cambridge families and businesses for over a decade. We’re not the cleaning company that shows up, wipes down surfaces, and calls it done.
We’re a family-run business that understands what it means to protect your investment. Every product we use is eco-friendly and safe for your kids, pets, and the environment. Because your family’s health matters more than cutting corners.
Cambridge residents know us for one thing: we don’t miss anything. When we say post-construction cleaning, we mean every vent, every windowsill, every corner where dust likes to hide and multiply.
We start with a thorough assessment of what your space needs. Every construction project leaves different challenges – some have more drywall dust, others have paint splatter or adhesive residue.
First, we tackle the big stuff. Debris removal, surface cleaning, and getting rid of anything that shouldn’t be there. Then we move to the detail work – the dust that’s settled in your HVAC vents, the fine particles on your window sills, the grime that’s worked its way into corners.
We clean from top to bottom, literally. Ceilings, walls, floors, and everything in between. Our eco-friendly products cut through construction residue without leaving harmful chemicals behind. By the time we’re finished, your space is ready for furniture, family, or your first day of business.

Post-construction cleaning in Old Cambridge means dealing with specific challenges that come with the area’s mix of historic renovations and new construction. Older homes often have intricate details that trap dust, while new builds can have fine particles that circulate through modern HVAC systems.
We handle the dust that settles in your heating and cooling vents – the stuff that will keep circulating through your home for months if not properly removed. We clean paint splatter from windows, adhesive residue from floors, and construction debris from places you didn’t even know it could reach.
Your service includes complete debris removal, wall washing, floor cleaning, window cleaning inside and out, HVAC vent cleaning, and sanitizing of all surfaces. We bring our own equipment and eco-friendly supplies, so you don’t have to worry about anything except enjoying your newly finished space.
The timeline depends on your project size and the amount of construction dust and debris left behind. A single room renovation typically takes 4-6 hours to clean thoroughly, while a whole-house project can take 1-2 full days.
We don’t rush the process because construction dust is tricky – it settles everywhere and keeps circulating if not properly removed. We take extra time to clean your HVAC vents and ductwork, which prevents dust from spreading through your home for weeks after we’re done.
During your free estimate, we’ll give you an accurate timeline based on what we see. We also work around your schedule, so if you need us to finish before furniture delivery or a specific move-in date, we’ll make it happen.
Construction dust is much finer and more persistent than regular dust. It’s made up of drywall particles, sawdust, concrete dust, and other materials that get airborne during construction. This fine dust settles into places regular dust never reaches – inside your vents, on top of ceiling fans, and in the smallest crevices.
The biggest problem is that construction dust keeps circulating. When you turn on your heat or air conditioning for the first time after construction, that dust gets blown throughout your entire home. It can trigger allergies, respiratory issues, and create a film on surfaces that regular cleaning can’t handle.
We use specialized equipment and techniques designed specifically for construction dust. Our HEPA-filtered vacuums capture particles that regular vacuums just push around, and our cleaning solutions are formulated to break down construction residue without damaging surfaces.
Yes, and this is one of the most important parts of post-construction cleaning that many companies skip. Construction dust loves to settle in your heating and cooling vents, and once it’s there, it circulates through your home every time your system runs.
We remove vent covers and clean both the covers and the accessible portions of your ductwork. For homes in Old Cambridge with older HVAC systems, we’re especially careful to remove dust without damaging vintage ductwork or disturbing asbestos-containing materials in older homes.
If your construction project was extensive, we might recommend professional duct cleaning in addition to our standard vent cleaning. We’ll let you know during our assessment if your system needs more intensive cleaning than we can provide as part of our standard service.
Absolutely. We use only eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products that are safe for your entire family, including children, pets, and anyone with chemical sensitivities or allergies. This is especially important after construction when your indoor air quality may already be compromised.
Our products are effective against construction dust and debris without introducing harsh chemicals into your home. We avoid ammonia, bleach, and other toxic ingredients that can cause respiratory irritation or leave harmful residues on surfaces your family touches.
Many Old Cambridge families choose us specifically because of our commitment to safe products. After dealing with construction dust and potential air quality issues, the last thing you want is to introduce more chemicals into your home’s environment.
The best thing you can do is wait until all construction work is completely finished before scheduling your cleaning. We’ve seen homeowners schedule cleaning too early, only to have contractors return and create more dust and debris.
Make sure your contractor has removed all their tools, materials, and obvious debris. Turn off your HVAC system if possible – we’ll clean the vents and you don’t want dust circulating while we work. If you have any delicate items or valuables in the space, either remove them or let us know so we can work around them carefully.
Don’t try to do any cleaning yourself before we arrive. Construction dust is different from regular dust, and using the wrong techniques can actually make it worse by spreading fine particles around. We have the right equipment and experience to handle it properly the first time.
Our pricing depends on the size of your project, the amount of construction dust and debris, and the specific services needed. A typical single-room renovation cleaning starts around $200-300, while whole-house post-construction cleaning ranges from $800-1500 depending on square footage and complexity.
We provide free, no-obligation estimates so you know exactly what to expect before we start. During the estimate, we’ll walk through your space and explain what needs to be done and why. There are no hidden fees or surprise charges.
Many Old Cambridge homeowners find that professional post-construction cleaning actually saves them money in the long run. Trying to clean construction dust yourself often means buying specialized equipment you’ll only use once, plus the time and frustration of doing it wrong and having to start over.
