Overview

A builders' clean that removes the fine dust

We’ve completed 4 after builders cleans in Reading so far, in RG1 Abbey, RG30 Southcote and RG4 Caversham, and our teams work across the rest of Berkshire.

An after builders clean removes the fine dust, plaster, paint spots and adhesive left after building work, from skirting boards and sockets to window frames and inside cupboards. Builders’ dust settles for days, so it needs more than one pass.

It suits homeowners after an extension or refurbishment, landlords getting a renovated flat ready to let and developers handing over new builds. Every job is covered by our 72-hour guarantee.

After Builders Cleaning is also known as post construction cleaning or post renovation cleaning, and some people call it an after renovation clean.

Teresa · SL1, Slough · December 2024

Trustpilot · ★★★★★
“I had two cleaners coming over and staying for almost 5 hours, until I was satisfied with the job. They worked very well and were very nice in meeting all my requests. Moreover, the price that the company offered me was very competitive and cheaper compared to other companies. The costumer service was very efficient too and they accommodated my request to change the day of the cleaning with a very short notice.”
