Post-construction cleaning

The building is finished.
I make it ready to move into.

The trades are done, and what is left is dust in every joint, plaster residue on the glass and debris on every floor. That is where I come in — I do the work myself, with industrial equipment and a sequence that does not miss a corner. On a large handover I bring in extra hands rather than let your date slip.

Handover-ready — no snag list items for cleaning

What I do

Four kinds of job, one method

Most of my projects begin with a handover clean after construction and carry on into ongoing maintenance once people have moved in.

Washing a tiled floor after construction, water and a bucket on the floor

Post-construction & pre-occupancy

Debris removal, plaster, adhesive and paint residue, dust in three passes, and window cleaning — through to handover condition.

About handover cleans

Office & commercial

After a fit-out or a floor refurbishment — cleaned in hours that do not interrupt work, including raised floors and acoustic ceilings.

Residential towers & common areas

Lobbies, stairwells, car parks and flat-by-flat cleaning, coordinated with the residents’ committee or the managing agent.

Ongoing building maintenance

After handover: the same person every visit, an agreed frequency, and one number to call for every property you manage.

About maintenance

Not sure which one you need?

Tell me the floor area and what stage the project is at. I will tell you what the job involves, how long it takes and what it costs — with no obligation.

Ask me

The sequence

What happens when the builders leave

Four stages, in the same order on every project. The order matters: clean the glass before the dust has come down and you clean it twice.

Clear out

Leftover materials, packaging, plasterboard offcuts and scrap. I sort what goes and leave the space clear to work in.

Dust, top to bottom

Ceilings, sprinkler heads, air-conditioning grilles, frames, joints and skirtings. HEPA-filtered vacuums, not a broom that throws the dust back up.

Finish residue

Plaster, adhesive, grout, stickers and paint spots — off glass, aluminium, ceramic and stainless steel, with products that will not damage the finish.

Handover pass

Floors washed and polished, windows and mirrors, then a walk-through with the project’s representative. Anything raised is put right the same day.

Why Safee

A cleaning contractor who speaks site

I am not a cleaning company that also does building sites. It is all I have done since 2011: handover cleans, pre-occupancy cleans, and the maintenance that follows them.

That means I turn up with the right equipment without asking, I know how to work alongside trades who are still finishing, and I understand that a handover date is a real date.

  • The person who quotes your job is the person who cleans it
  • Extra workers when the size or the date calls for them — people I have worked with for years, on site with me
  • Industrial kit: scrubber-driers, HEPA vacuums, ladders and access platforms
  • Safe working: PPE, electrical and working-at-height procedures, live insurance
  • A snag round after the handover inspection, included in the price

What it looks like

What I take on, and what I hand over

Two states anyone who has worked a handover will recognise: the building on the day the trades leave, and the building on the day I hand it back.

When I arrive

Dust on every surface, leftover materials in the corners, and protective film still on the aluminium.

When I hand over

Floors polished, glass clear, joints and tracks clean, and a building you can put people into.

The promise

Finished means finished

A clean that is ninety per cent done is not done. The last ten per cent is exactly what the handover inspection looks at: the joint under the skirting, the corner of the glass, the inside of the kitchen unit.

So the job is not over when I pack up. It is over when the inspection passes. If anything on that list is mine, I come back and put it right at no extra charge.

  • A snag round after the handover inspection, written into the quote
  • Back the same day or the next — not next week
  • Nothing on the snag list for cleaning: that is the whole point

I will price it without a meeting first

On most projects the floor area, the stage you are at and the handover date are enough for an accurate range the same day.
