Builders Clean

After building work or renovations, even the most stunning project can feel unfinished without a professional clean. Dust, plaster, paint splashes, and construction debris have a way of settling into every surface — from skirting boards and window ledges to carpets, tiles, and upholstery. At Cleaning Solutions North East, our builders clean service ensures your home or office is left spotless, hygienic, and ready for immediate use.

The upheaval of construction work is significant, and standard domestic cleaning methods often aren’t enough to deal with the fine dust and residue left behind. Industry guidelines highlight that post-construction dust can continue to circulate for weeks if not properly removed, affecting air quality and the overall presentation of the property. Our service tackles these challenges head-on, using professional-grade equipment and specialist cleaning techniques to deliver a finish that goes far beyond surface cleaning.

For homeowners, a builders clean means moving back into a property that feels fresh and welcoming rather than dusty and unsettled. For businesses, it’s the crucial final step before handover, ensuring clients, staff, or tenants enter a professional space that reflects care and quality. A property may be structurally complete, but without a thorough clean, it won’t deliver the polished first impression that matters so much at the point of handover.

At Cleaning Solutions North East, we tailor our builders cleans to the needs of each property. From a full deep clean of every room to targeted attention on high-use areas, we restore order after the disruption of building work. The result is a home or office that doesn’t just look finished — it feels finished.

BUILDERS DEEP CLEAN

  • BUILDERS CLEAN

    A builders clean is not the same as a standard domestic clean — it’s a technical service designed to remove construction residues that ordinary methods can’t. After renovations or new builds, microscopic silica dust from plaster, concrete, and brickwork is the most common contaminant. Studies show this type of dust can remain airborne for weeks and settle repeatedly, which is why a property can look clean one day and dusty the next. At Cleaning Solutions North East, we use HEPA-filtered extraction systems that capture these fine particles instead of simply recirculating them into the air, protecting both appearance and health.

    Beyond dust, building work leaves behind residues such as adhesives, grouts, silicone, and paint overspray. These aren’t just cosmetic marks — if not removed promptly, they can harden and permanently stain new fixtures or flooring. Our team uses specialist cleaning agents chosen to be tough on residues but safe for delicate surfaces like glass, tiles, and polished stone. This balance ensures a perfect finish without risk of scratching or dulling high-value materials.

    Attention to hidden areas is another key difference in a professional builders clean. Window tracks, skirting, sockets, vents, and high ledges all trap fine dust and debris that general cleaning overlooks. If these areas are missed, dust simply circulates back into the space, undermining the handover finish. At Cleaning Solutions North East, our process is detailed and methodical, leaving every part of the property ready for immediate use.

    Health and safety also plays a central role. Construction dust — especially from cutting and sanding — can contain particles harmful if inhaled, while leftover debris may pose slip or trip hazards. Our cleaners are trained to work in line with COSHH regulations and risk assessments, using the correct PPE and procedures to ensure every job is carried out safely as well as thoroughly.

    The final stage is presentation. A builders clean isn’t only about hygiene — it’s about achieving a finish that matches the quality of the construction work itself. Whether for a new homeowner walking into their property for the first time or a business handing over a commercial office, our service ensures the space feels polished, professional, and truly complete.

  • WHY CHOOSE US?

    A builders clean isn’t a “big tidy.” It’s a technical finish that decides whether your project looks complete—or compromised. Cleaning Solutions North East is the partner contractors, developers, facilities teams, and homeowners choose when the handover has to be flawless. We work to construction-grade best practice, not domestic shortcuts: HEPA-filtered extraction for fine silica dust, colour-coded microfibre and pH-matched chemistries to protect new finishes, and non-scoring blades/plastic scrapers for paint and plaster removal on glass and delicate surfaces. Every site is different; our methods aren’t improvised—they’re risk-assessed, documented, and executed with a supervisor on site to deliver a predictable, snag-free result.

    Professionalism isn’t a slogan; it’s how we operate on your site. We arrive inducted and fully briefed, with RAMS (Risk Assessment & Method Statements), COSHH data sheets, PAT-tested equipment, and the right PPE. We coordinate with trades to avoid re-soiling, protect sensitive areas (stone, timber, stainless), and schedule out-of-hours when needed so programmes stay on track. Our team follows a top-down, clean-to-clear workflow—vent grilles, light tracks, window reveals and frames, socket surrounds, skirtings, floor edges—finishing with machine or manual floor detailing so the whole space reads “ready to occupy,” not “recently built.”

    What makes us different is how far we go after we’ve cleaned. Construction dust settles again as the HVAC runs and doors open. We include an optional “settle & sparkle” revisit within 24–72 hours to capture secondary fall-out and add that final polish to glass, fixtures, and floors before handover or photography. You also receive a digital QA pack(before/after images, snag clearance notes, COSHH & RAMS copy, and sign-off), so stakeholders see exactly what was delivered—and what risks were managed—without guesswork.

    We’re candid and careful with your finishes. New substrates can be unforgiving: uncured sealants, micro-scratches on black glass, limescale flash on chrome, grout haze on large-format tiles, overspray marring anodised frames. Our specialists use finish-safe removers (cement haze neutralisers, silicone de-smears, adhesive gel removers) in controlled dwell times, then neutralise and buff to a showroom sheen. The result is a property that photographs beautifully, passes client walk-throughs, and actually feels clean—no powdery residue, no streaks, no shortcuts.

    Finally, we’re transparent. Scope, inclusions, exclusions, and change-controls are set out upfront. If we encounter unanticipated issues (ongoing dusty works, remedials, sealant needing cure time), we tell you immediately and propose a solution—not excuses. That’s why clients describe us as “best of the best”: not because we promise the moon, but because we deliver immaculate, defensible handovers under real-world site conditions.

    In short, choose Cleaning Solutions North East when you need:

    Handover-ready finishes: HEPA dust control, edge detailing, glass & frame perfection, floor presentation.

    Construction-grade compliance: RAMS, COSHH, supervisor oversight, PAT-tested kit, PPE.

    Finish-safe chemistry & tooling: no etching, no scratching, no haze—just a true sparkle.

    Settle & Sparkle revisit: an optional return clean to capture post-clean fall-out before keys change hands.

    Clear reporting & sign-off: photos, snag lists, documentation your client team will actually use.

    Zero-drama coordination: out-of-hours options and sequencing around trades to protect programme and budget.

    When it has to look finished—and feel finished—hand it to the team that treats a builders clean like the final, critical trade on site.

  • BUILDERS CLEAN COST

    At Cleaning Solutions North East, we know that no two building projects are alike. A loft conversion leaves behind very different residues than a full commercial refurbishment, and a luxury residential fit-out demands a higher standard of finish than a basic end-of-build tidy. That’s why our builders clean pricing is never one-size-fits-all. Instead, costs are calculated on the scope of the works, the depth of cleaning required, the materials present, and the specialist products needed to achieve a truly professional finish.

    The Factors That Define Cost:

    Nature of the Build – A single-room renovation may only require a light builders clean, whereas a new-build property or office block typically involves multi-stage cleaning and larger volumes of fine dust.

    Depth of Cleaning – Some projects need a standard deep clean to remove plaster and paint residues, while others demand multiple visits, including an initial clean, a “settle clean” for dust fall-out, and a final sparkle clean for presentation.

    Materials & Finishes – High-spec properties often include sensitive finishes such as polished stone, stainless steel, glass balustrades, or specialist flooring. These require bespoke cleaning agents and non-abrasive tools, which influence both time and cost.

    Products & Equipment – From HEPA-filter vacuums to cement-haze removers and adhesive neutralisers, we use market-leading products and equipment to deliver a flawless result without damaging surfaces. The right chemistry and tooling are integral to the cost—and the finish.

    Competitive Pricing, Professional Results

    We pride ourselves on being highly competitive within the North East market, but our value lies in more than just the numbers. Clients choose us because they know our cleans are delivered with meticulous attention to detail, safe working practices, and a professional finish that stands up to scrutiny at handover. Many firms offer “cheap cleans” that skim the surface—leaving behind dust in vents, grout haze on tiles, or scratches on glass that cost more to rectify later. Our service avoids those pitfalls by doing the job right, first time.

    An Investment in Excellence

    A builders clean is the final step before handover, and it is often the standard by which the entire project is judged. Investing in a professional clean means protecting your reputation, delighting your client, and ensuring your work is shown at its very best. Whether you are a homeowner moving back in, a contractor handing over a build, or a business opening new premises, our cost reflects the time, expertise, and precision needed to deliver an immaculate result.

    Transparent Quotations

    We provide clear, detailed quotations tailored to each job, with no hidden charges. All costs are broken down based on area size, depth of cleaning, and any specialist treatments required. Optional extras, such as a post-settlement sparkle clean, can be included so you know exactly what you’re getting and how it supports the final presentation.

    With Cleaning Solutions North East, you’re not just paying for cleaning—you’re investing in a seamless, professional handover that reflects the quality of the build itself.
