    When might you require a post-construction cleaning service or Builders’ cleaning in Sydney?

    Trained & Experienced Builders Cleaners:

    • Residential: Whether you’re renovating your kitchen or bathroom, adding an extension, reinvigorating your garden, or undertaking a new build, you want your new living space to be clean, tidy, and ready to be lived in. Once we’re finished with your new home space, you’ll be able to enjoy it immediately.
    • Commercial: From offices to retail spaces, if you’ve invested in renovating or building new workspaces, you want them to be clean before you and your staff enjoy the space. We’ll help once the builders are done.
    • Industrial: No job is too big for us. If you’re constructing a large industrial complex, such as warehouses and factories, the post-building clean-up can be extensive. Leave it to the experts to thoroughly and safely prepare the area.

    Post-construction clean-up services are most commonly used by:

    • Homeowners & Renovators: who have either completed a partial renovation, extension, or complete knock-down rebuild of their home.
    • Property Developers: Many investors and house-flippers are turning around properties quickly to get them on the market in a saleable condition asap.
    • Shop Owners & Fitters: when upgrading commercial space to modernise and create a better in-store customer experience.
    •  Builders: Builders often partner with cleaning companies so they can get on with the job of construction and renovation and don’t need to worry about the clean-up – that’s our job!

    What is included in a builders cleaning / post-construction clean?

    Most cleaners include removal of debris, dust extraction, cleaning of floors, walls, surfaces, fixtures, windows (internal; external often as an extra), adhesive/tape residue, etc.

    When is the best time to schedule the cleaners?

    Ideal is once all major construction and trades work is completed. If some trades are still on site, cleaning may need staging or return visits. Extra fees may apply.

    How much does builders cleaning cost in Sydney?

    Pricing often depends on: size of property, condition (how messy), access, any special treatments (e.g. removing paint or adhesive), location. Rough guides: AU$5-10 per square metre for standard builders clean. In tougher or more complex jobs it could go up to ~AU$20/sq m. Hourly rates for labour often AU$50-80/h depending on scope.

    How many cleaners will be needed / team size?

    Depends on the property size & condition. Small residential jobs: maybe 1-2 cleaners; larger homes or multiple level / commercial jobs: 3-5 or more plus possibly a supervisor or coordinator.

    Do you clean furnished properties or only empty ones?

    Yes, many builders-cleaners can work in furnished properties; extra time is needed; risk of paint/sawdust on furniture; cleaning costs higher. It should be discussed in quotation.

    What documentation, insurance, safety compliance is provided?

    Reputable companies have public liability insurance; may provide SWMS (Safe Work Method Statements); police or background checks for workers; safety equipment for handling dust and hazardous substances.

    What additional fees or surcharges might apply?

    Be aware: if you have restricted access (stairs, lifts, scaffolding), hazardous waste (e.g. asbestos or certain chemicals), very heavy build-waste, or need for special tools, there may be extra charges. Always get a detailed quote listing potential surcharges.

    What guarantee or follow-up services do you provide if I'm not satisfied?

    Many cleaning services offer a satisfaction guarantee — e.g. call within 24 hours and they will return to fix missed spots at no extra cost. Ask about their policies.
