Our latest blog shares everything you need to know about builders clean, getting your properties back on the market and occupied as soon as possible.

What is a builders clean, and what does it include?

A builders clean is a specific type of cleaning services tailored to the cleaning of a commercial or residential property following building work. A builders clean provides a thorough clean, focusing on the following areas:

• Removing dust and building residue (e.g. paint flecks, grout or building material remnants)
• Cleaning of mouldings, frames and surfaces
• Focusing on hidden areas of clutter and dust in cabinets, drawers or under stair areas

Why does a property need a builders clean?
Following building work completion or property refurbishment all too often the property in question is left covered in dust and plaster. In this state properties are uninhabitable, and efforts need to be made to clean the property ready for resale or new tenants to move in. A professional builders clean will ensure that the property is left clean, tidy and safe. Ensuring that cleaning services are carried out in a timely manner and all necessary areas of a property are cleaned.
