After Builders Cleaning in London
When the builders leave, the dust stays. Fine plaster dust settles on every surface, paint speckles land on windows and floors, and packaging and offcuts collect in corners. After builders cleaning clears all of it so you can finally enjoy the finished space.
We clean homes and commercial properties after extensions, refurbishments, kitchen and bathroom fits, and decorating. Building dust is stubborn, so it needs a more thorough approach than an ordinary tidy-up.
What after builders cleaning covers
The scope depends on the work that was done. A post-build clean generally focuses on:
- Fine dust removed from surfaces, shelves, sills and fittings
- Dust cleared from skirting boards, door frames and radiators
- Paint splashes and sticky residue removed where safe to do so
- Windows, frames and glass cleaned after work is finished
- Kitchen units and appliances wiped inside and out
- Bathrooms and new fittings cleaned and polished
- Floors vacuumed and mopped, with attention to edges and corners
- Light fittings, switches and sockets cleaned
- Carpets and upholstery cleaned on request

Why building dust needs a different approach
Plaster, cement and sanding dust is much finer than normal household dust. It drifts through open doors, settles on high surfaces and works into corners, vents and the tops of cupboards. Wiping a surface once often just moves it around.
That is why a post-build clean is more methodical than an ordinary clean, and why it is best booked once the work has finished rather than while trades are still on site.
How an after builders clean works
Tell us about the work
What was built or refurbished, the size of the area and the state it is in.
Agree a time
Book once the trades have finished so we are not cleaning around ongoing work.
We tackle the dust
We work from the top of each room down so settled dust is not redistributed.
Move in
Return to a property that is ready for furniture, customers or tenants.
Before the after builders clean
- Confirm all building and decorating work is complete.
- Ask the builders to remove skips, rubble, offcuts and large debris.
- Allow paint and plaster to dry fully before the clean.
- Cover or move items you do not want dusty, if the work is still being finished.
- Tell us about new surfaces such as worktops or flooring that need careful handling.
- Make sure water and electricity are connected.
After Builders Cleaning FAQs
When should I book an after builders clean?
Once the building and decorating work is finished, the skip has gone and any plaster and paint have dried.
Can you remove paint and cement splashes?
We can remove many paint splashes and light residues where it is safe for the surface. Heavy cement or damage to surfaces may need a specialist, so tell us what you are dealing with when you ask for a quote.
Do you clear rubble and waste?
No. After builders cleaning is about cleaning. Larger debris and building waste should be removed by the builders or a waste service before we arrive.
Can you also do a deep clean afterwards?
Yes. A deep clean is a good follow-up if you want the whole property refreshed once the dust is gone.
