Post-Construction Cleaning: What Homeowners Should Expect

Fresh construction and remodeling leave behind more than the obvious debris. Drywall dust in particular travels through vents and settles on almost every surface — sometimes for weeks after the work is done.

What is included

• Removal of visible debris and packaging
• HEPA vacuuming of floors, vents, and upholstery-safe areas
• Wiping of walls, ceilings, and fixtures where accessible
• Detailed cleaning of window frames, tracks, and glass
• Cleaning inside cabinets, drawers, and closets

Two-pass approach

For heavy jobs we often recommend two visits. The first removes bulk dust and debris, then air settles for a day or two, and a second pass captures anything that resettles. This yields a cleaner final result than a single visit.

What to plan for

Post-construction cleaning services in Chicago typically take longer than a standard clean, and stronger commercial products may be required. We will confirm scope and timing before we start.
