What we're actually removing

Builders dust isn't normal dust

Plaster and gypsum particles are fine enough to travel through a whole property and settle again hours after a standard clean. Domestic vacuums push them back into the air. This is what our teams are equipped for.

  • 01 Plaster & gypsum dustLifted from walls, ceilings, skirting, window tracks and radiator fins — not just the surfaces you can see.
  • 02 Paint splashes & oversprayRemoved from glass, tiles, handles, sockets and flooring without damaging the new finish underneath.
  • 03 Silicone & adhesive residueSealant smears around baths, worktops and shower screens, plus tape marks and sticker glue on new units.
  • 04 Grout haze & cement filmThe cloudy layer left on new tiling and stone that only shows once the light hits it.
  • 05 Protective film & labelsPeeled from appliances, glazing and sanitaryware, with the adhesive line cleaned off properly.

Why CMH

Built for post-construction work

Renovation cleaning is not a bigger version of a domestic clean. Different dust, different risk, different equipment.

New finishes protected

Non-abrasive methods and pH-appropriate products on fresh paint, new stone, engineered flooring and unsealed grout.

Industrial equipment

Commercial vacuums with HEPA filtration that capture fine particles instead of recirculating them through the property.

We work around the trades

Builders overrun. We hold short-notice slots, work weekends, and can return after snagging is finished.

£10m insured, teams vetted

Full public liability cover to £10 million. Every cleaner is trained and background-checked before they set foot on site.

7-day re-clean guarantee

If something has been missed, tell us within seven days and we come back and put it right. No charge, no argument.

Photos in, price back

Send photos of the property on WhatsApp and you get a fixed quote the same day. No site visit needed to get started.

Who we clean for

From a single bathroom to a full refurb

The same standard whether it's one room or a whole development handover.

Homeowners

Extensions, loft conversions, new kitchens and bathrooms — the property ready to live in again.

Builders & contractors

Sparkle cleans before handover, scheduled around your programme and second fix.

Developers

Multiple units cleaned to the same specification, ready for viewings or completion.

Landlords & agents

Refurbished properties turned around quickly so they can go back on the market.

Questions

After builders cleaning, answered

How much does after builders cleaning cost?

It depends on the size of the property and how much residue the works left behind — a light dust-off after a bathroom fit-out is a very different job from a full refurbishment with plaster and paint on every surface. Send us photos on WhatsApp and we'll come back with a fixed price the same day.

How long does an after builders clean take?

A small flat typically takes four to six hours. A larger house or a heavily dusted refurbishment can take a full day, sometimes with a bigger team. We confirm the expected time with your quote so you can plan the handover.

Is it safe on brand-new surfaces?

Yes. We use non-abrasive methods and products chosen for the finish — fresh paint, natural stone, engineered flooring and unsealed grout all need different handling. Tell us what's been installed and we'll plan around it.

Do you bring your own equipment?

Always. Teams arrive with commercial vacuums, HEPA filtration, materials and everything else needed. Nothing has to be provided on site — useful when the property has no water or power connected yet.

Can you come at short notice?

Usually, yes. Building work overruns and handover dates don't move, so we hold short-notice and weekend slots. WhatsApp is the fastest way to check availability.

Do I need to be there?

No. Most of our after builders work is done in empty properties. We can collect keys from you, an agent or a site manager, and send photos when the clean is finished.

Do you clean windows?

Internal glass, frames, handles, tracks and sills are included, along with paint splashes and sticky residue on the glass. External window cleaning is available as an add-on.

Can you remove building waste?

We collect and bag loose debris as part of the clean. Removing rubble, packaging or larger waste from site is available as an add-on — mention it when you request your quote so we bring the right vehicle.

What if something is missed?

We offer a 7-day re-clean guarantee. If anything has been missed, contact us within seven days and we return to put it right free of charge.

Are you insured?

Yes — CMH Cleaning holds £10 million public liability insurance, and every cleaner is trained and background-checked. We can provide certificates for site records if your contractor needs them.
