A stunning mirror deserves a clean space. After a renovation, fine dust can settle on reflective surfaces, making even the most expensive mirrors lose their shine. Post-construction cleaning is the key to restoring your home’s elegance, ensuring your interiors—and mirrors—look flawless from every angle.
Dust particles and loose materials left behind after a construction project can be a hazard in your home. After the project is done, you should at least do an initial sweep before anyone re-enters the space. The last thing you want is someone to step on a nail and have to be rushed to the emergency room for a tetanus shot. A good deep clean of all of the rooms in your house after a construction project will clean up the air, get rid of all of the extra debris and chemicals lying around, and make sure your home is safe to inhabit again.
The overall look of a newly renovated space cannot be fully experienced until the room has been deep cleaned. Imagine looking out into a new living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, but the windows are clouded by caked-on dust and the floors still have boot marks from the workers. Before you consider bringing people over to show off your new space, you must take the time to get a deep clean done. Once the space is spotless, the true beauty of it will shine through and people won’t be able to stop talking about it.
A regularly cleaned floor or countertop will last a lot longer than one that is left neglected for too long. Doing a deep post construction cleaning will set a precedent for the level of cleanliness you should have in your house going forward. If you maintain the cleaned spaces in your home, you will not need to have another construction project for a long, long time.
Expert cleaning services will come into your home and collect all of the extra construction waste that was left behind. This may include old paint cans, wood chips, mud, and other materials. This needs to be done before any other kind of cleaning because it will reveal the state of the floor and if any extra supplies are needed for big messes. You can sort the construction waste and recycle what you can, and throw out the rest.
It is important to be safe when performing this task because if the loose nails and screws that could be laying around. Wear sturdy shoes and keep children away from the area until all of the debris is cleared.
A thorough dusting means that dust is removed from all surfaces, clearing the air and getting rid of that construction smell. Surfaces like batteries, radiators, and air conditioners can get loaded up with dust during a construction process and can break or lose function if they are not cleaned quickly, so make sure that those are dusted first.
Other surfaces that need dust removal are furniture, ceilings, mirrors, and windows. You can use a strong vacuum hose to remove dust from sofas and other soft pieces of furniture that weren’t removed for the construction project. Also for glass surfaces like mirrors and windows, use a duster first and then go over them with a glass cleaning solution so that they shine. Don’t forget to get in all of the corners where dust can linger and make these surfaces look grimey.
After the debris removal and dusting is done, you will likely notice things like paint spills and mortar residue on windowsills, baseboards, walls, and floors. These need to be removed with careful precision. It is best to find a cleaning service that is used to these kinds of clean ups to do this task because they will have all kinds of scraping tools to carefully remove these imperfections.
To start the deep clean, you need to observe all of the surfaces you think were affected by the construction. This includes walls, countertops, floors, cabinetry, and ceilings. If you have already done the dusting of these areas, this step is all about scrubbing. For walls and ceilings, you can wipe them down with a damp microfiber cloth to knock away residue like paint flecks and mud splatter. Countertops can be scrubbed down with your preferred cleaning solution. If you have a tile countertop in your bathroom or kitchen, make sure to scrub deep into the grout so that it looks nice and clean again. The same should be done with tile floors as they probably accumulated a lot of dirt throughout the construction process.
Once your house is starting to look clean and sparkly again, the last step is to sanitize everything. With lots of people coming in and out during a construction project, it feels good to have a sanitized space after it’s done. Make sure to use sanitizing wipes to get deep into the crevices of light switches, doorknobs, door hinges, and other hardware.
Although minor cleanup is easy enough for homeowners, it might be the last thing you want to do after working on a construction project for days or weeks. Hiring a professional cleaning service will give you peace of mind that your house will be put back in shape by professionals who do this all the time. If you are going back and forth about your post-construction cleaning decision, consider the cleaning supplies you have at home, the time it will take to clean the whole house of dust and debris, and if you think it is safe to do on your own.
Post-construction cleaning is the final, yet essential, step in achieving a flawless home makeover. Whether it’s a minor renovation or a complete rebuild, proper cleaning amps up the aesthetics, safety, and longevity of the space. Investing in a thorough post-construction clean means that your newly transformed home is ready to be enjoyed to its fullest potential.
