Hear from Our Customers
You’ve just finished a major renovation or construction project. The contractors have packed up their tools, but they’ve left behind something else: dust covering every surface, debris scattered throughout rooms, and that fine construction grit that seems to get into everything.
This isn’t regular house dirt. Construction dust contains particles from drywall, sawdust, adhesives, and other materials that settle into places you’d never expect. Your HVAC system has been circulating this dust for weeks. Your beautiful new space deserves better than a quick sweep.
When we’re done, you’ll walk into a space that finally matches your vision. Clean air, spotless surfaces, and floors you can walk on barefoot. Ready for furniture, ready for family, ready for life.
We’ve spent over a decade perfecting the art of post-construction cleanup throughout Westlands and the greater Chelmsford area. We’re a family-run business that understands what it takes to transform a construction site into a home.
What sets us apart isn’t just our experience—it’s our commitment to using family-safe, eco-friendly products that won’t compromise your indoor air quality. When you have children, pets, or simply care about what you’re breathing, this matters more than you might realize.
We’ve built our reputation one satisfied customer at a time in this community. Westlands homeowners know they can count on us to show up on time, work efficiently, and leave their space genuinely clean—not just surface-level tidy.
Our post-construction cleaning follows a proven three-stage process that ensures nothing gets missed.
First, we tackle the rough clean. This means removing obvious debris, wiping down surfaces caked with dust, and addressing the most visible messes. We’re dealing with construction adhesive, paint overspray, and layers of drywall dust that regular cleaning simply can’t handle.
Next comes the detailed clean. Construction dust has a way of settling into the smallest crevices and corners. We clean ventilation systems, baseboards, light fixtures, and all those places where dust loves to hide. This stage requires specialized equipment and techniques that go far beyond typical house cleaning.
Finally, we perform a touch-up cleaning about a week later. Even after thorough cleaning, some dust continues to settle. This final pass ensures your space stays pristine and ready for occupancy.

Our comprehensive post-construction cleaning covers every aspect of your newly completed space. We remove all construction debris, thoroughly vacuum and mop all floors, and clean every surface from ceiling to baseboards.
Windows get special attention—both inside and out where accessible. We clean light fixtures, ceiling fans, and all those details that make the difference between “clean enough” and “move-in ready.” Kitchen and bathroom deep cleaning ensures these high-use areas are sanitized and spotless.
In Westlands, where home values reflect quality and attention to detail, this thorough approach matters. Whether you’ve renovated a classic Cape Cod or built a new custom home, we understand that your investment deserves professional-grade cleaning that matches the quality of the work that came before it.
The timeline depends on your project’s size and scope, but most residential post-construction cleanings take between 4-8 hours for the initial deep clean. A typical 2,000 square foot home renovation usually requires a full day.
Larger projects or homes with extensive construction work may need additional time. We always provide realistic timeframes during our free estimate, so you know exactly what to expect. The follow-up touch-up cleaning typically takes 2-3 hours about a week later.
Post-construction cleaning is significantly more intensive than regular house cleaning. Construction creates fine dust that penetrates everywhere—inside cabinets, light fixtures, HVAC systems, and even sealed containers.
We use specialized equipment and techniques designed specifically for construction debris and dust. This includes HEPA filtration vacuums, commercial-grade cleaning solutions, and methods for safely removing construction adhesives and paint residue. Regular cleaning equipment simply isn’t designed to handle this level of contamination.
The process also requires multiple stages and safety considerations that don’t apply to routine cleaning.
We handle standard construction debris and dust, but we don’t remove hazardous materials like asbestos, lead paint chips, or chemical spills. These require specialized hazmat removal services.
However, we do safely clean up common construction residues like drywall dust, sawdust, paint overspray, and adhesive residue using appropriate safety equipment and eco-friendly cleaning products. If you’re unsure about any materials in your space, we’ll assess the situation during our initial walkthrough.
For standard renovations and new construction, our service covers everything needed to make your space clean and safe for occupancy.
Pricing varies based on your project’s size, scope of work, and level of construction mess, but most residential post-construction cleanings in Westlands range from $300-800 for the complete service.
Factors affecting cost include square footage, number of rooms, extent of dust and debris, and accessibility of areas needing cleaning. We always provide free, no-obligation estimates so you know the exact cost upfront.
Given the investment you’ve made in your renovation or new construction, professional cleaning represents a small fraction of your total project cost while ensuring you can actually enjoy your beautiful new space immediately.
We typically recommend waiting until all construction work is completely finished before scheduling post-construction cleaning. Cleaning while work continues is counterproductive since new dust and debris will immediately re-contaminate cleaned areas.
However, we can coordinate with your contractor for interim cleanings during major construction phases if needed. This might make sense for large projects where certain areas are completely finished while work continues elsewhere.
The most effective and economical approach is usually one comprehensive cleaning after all construction, painting, and final installations are complete.
The main preparation is ensuring all construction work is completely finished and contractors have removed their tools and major debris. We handle the detailed cleaning, but large construction waste should be cleared first.
If possible, remove any personal items or furniture from the space. This allows us to clean thoroughly without working around obstacles. Make sure we have access to water and electricity, and let us know about any areas requiring special attention.
We’ll walk through the space with you before starting to identify priorities and discuss any specific concerns. Clear communication upfront ensures the best possible results.
