You planned every detail of your renovation. You picked the perfect finishes, coordinated contractors, and managed timelines. But now you’re staring at dust-covered surfaces, drywall chunks in corners, and debris scattered throughout your beautiful new space.
Here’s what most people don’t realize: that construction dust isn’t just messy—it’s dangerous. Fine particles settle deep into HVAC systems, crevices, and surfaces where regular cleaning can’t reach. Turn on your heat or AC, and suddenly your entire home is filled with airborne dust that can trigger respiratory issues.
We handle the heavy-duty cleanup that transforms construction chaos into move-in ready perfection. Your space gets professionally cleaned, sanitized, and prepared so you can actually enjoy what you built instead of spending weeks trying to clean it yourself.
For over ten years, we’ve served discerning homeowners throughout the MetroWest area. We understand that Sherborn residents expect excellence—your home represents a significant investment, and you deserve service that matches those standards.
As a family-owned business, we treat every property like our own. Our bonded and insured team uses professional-grade equipment and eco-friendly products that are safe for your family and pets. We’ve cleaned everything from historic colonial renovations to modern kitchen remodels, and we know exactly what it takes to remove every trace of construction mess.
Sherborn homeowners choose us because we deliver consistent quality without the drama. No missed appointments, no corner-cutting, no surprises.
First, we assess your space and identify problem areas where dust and debris have accumulated. Construction creates different messes depending on the work—kitchen remodels leave different residues than bathroom renovations or whole-house projects.
Next comes the heavy lifting. We remove all debris, vacuum with HEPA filtration systems that capture microscopic particles, and wash every surface that can’t simply be dusted. This includes walls, baseboards, light fixtures, vents, and all those places where fine dust settles and hides.
Finally, we perform detailed cleaning and sanitization. Windows get streak-free treatment, floors are properly cleaned and protected, and bathrooms and kitchens receive thorough sanitization. We don’t leave until your space is genuinely ready for furniture and family.

Post-construction cleaning goes far beyond regular housekeeping. We remove construction debris, eliminate dangerous dust from HVAC systems, clean adhesive residue and paint splatter, and sanitize every surface. All trash and leftover materials get properly disposed of.
Sherborn’s older homes often require extra attention during renovations. Historic properties with original hardwood floors, crown molding, and period details need careful cleaning that protects these valuable features while removing construction residue.
We also handle the details that make the difference: cleaning inside cabinets, removing protective film from appliances, polishing fixtures, and ensuring your move-in day isn’t spent cleaning up after contractors. Your investment deserves this level of care.
Most post-construction cleanings take 4-8 hours depending on your project size and scope. A kitchen renovation typically requires 4-6 hours, while whole-house projects or additions can take a full day or more.
The timeline depends on several factors: how much debris contractors left behind, whether HVAC systems need cleaning, and the level of detail work required. We provide accurate time estimates during our initial assessment.
We always schedule with buffer time because rushing this process defeats the purpose. You want thorough results, not quick results that leave dust and debris behind.
Yes, construction dust contains particles that can cause serious respiratory issues, especially for children, elderly family members, or anyone with asthma or allergies. Fine drywall dust, wood particles, and other construction debris become airborne easily and can trigger breathing problems.
The biggest risk comes when you turn on heating or cooling systems before proper cleanup. Dust that’s settled in vents and ductwork gets blown throughout your entire home, creating ongoing air quality issues that regular cleaning can’t fix.
Professional post-construction cleaning uses HEPA filtration systems that capture particles as small as 0.3 microns—far smaller than what household vacuums can handle. This isn’t just about appearance; it’s about creating a safe living environment for your family.
Post-construction cleaning requires specialized equipment, techniques, and products that regular housekeeping services don’t typically use. Construction creates unique challenges: adhesive residue, paint overspray, drywall dust that clings to surfaces, and debris in hard-to-reach places.
We use industrial-grade HEPA vacuums, specialized cleaning solutions for different types of construction residue, and techniques for cleaning delicate surfaces without damage. Regular cleaning focuses on maintenance; construction cleanup is about restoration.
The process is also much more labor-intensive. Every surface needs individual attention, and we often need to clean the same areas multiple times to achieve proper results. It’s detail work that requires experience and the right tools.
Most contractors focus on their trade, not cleaning. General contractors, plumbers, electricians, and other specialists typically leave behind significant mess—it’s not part of their core service. Expecting thorough cleanup from contractors often leads to disappointment and delays.
We specialize in the detailed work that contractors don’t have time, equipment, or expertise to handle properly. We coordinate timing so cleanup happens right after construction completion, when it’s most effective.
This division of labor actually works better for everyone. Contractors focus on their skilled work, and we handle what we do best. You get superior results in both areas instead of mediocre cleanup from people whose expertise lies elsewhere.
You can try, but most homeowners underestimate the time, effort, and specialized equipment required for proper post-construction cleaning. What looks like a weekend project often stretches into weeks of ongoing dust issues and incomplete results.
Construction dust gets into places you wouldn’t expect: inside electrical outlets, behind appliances, in HVAC systems, and deep into carpet fibers. Without HEPA filtration and proper techniques, you’re often just moving dust around rather than removing it.
The health risks also make DIY cleanup problematic. Professional equipment protects both the cleaners and your family from dangerous airborne particles. Most homeowners don’t have access to the same level of protective gear and filtration systems we use daily.
We can typically start cleaning within 24-48 hours after contractors complete their work and remove their equipment. The key is ensuring all construction activity is completely finished—even minor touch-ups can create new dust that requires additional cleaning.
Timing coordination is crucial for best results. Starting too early means potential re-cleaning if contractors return for final details. Starting too late allows dust to settle deeper into surfaces and HVAC systems, making removal more difficult.
We work with your project timeline to schedule cleaning at the optimal moment. This ensures efficient service and eliminates the need for multiple cleaning sessions. Most Sherborn projects benefit from scheduling cleaning immediately after final contractor walk-through.
