Straight answers.

What contractors, developers and property managers ask us, answered plainly.

Post-construction and handover

Do you work with main contractors and developers?

Yes, both. Post-construction and handover cleaning is our first service, and it is work we do with contractors and developers. Main contractors, construction companies, developers, real estate companies, property managers, facility managers and building management, on a single unit or across a whole handover programme, in commercial property, residential towers and large villas.

What does a handover clean cover?

Everything between the last trade and the inspection. Construction dust removal; paint, cement, grout and silicone residue; glass and windows; high-access window cleaning; final detailing; and handover preparation. Teams bring all the supplies and the professional machines the surfaces need, and the post-construction page sets out each of those in full.

Ask on WhatsApp

What does post-construction cleaning include?

Everything the builders leave behind. Construction dust and debris, floors, walls and ceilings, glass and windows, sanitised bathrooms and kitchens, polished fixtures, and paint marks and adhesive residue lifted. We work with contractors and developers.

What do you need from the site?

A way in, and the services a machine job runs on. Tell us how a team gets in, whether the building needs passes or permits, whether water and power are live, and whether the service lift has to be booked. Teams bring all supplies and equipment, so nothing else has to be found on site.

Ask on WhatsApp

How soon can a team start?

Book 24 to 48 hours ahead. Same day and next day are often possible on WhatsApp, subject to a team being free. We work seven days a week, so a team is arranged around the trades still on site and the date you have to hand over.

Ask on WhatsApp

Quotes, payment and contracts

How do you reach a price?

A site visit, then a written scope. Send drawings, a unit list or photographs on WhatsApp, or ask us to walk the site with you. You get back what is included, what it costs and how long it takes, usually within the hour while we are open. Every price is written for the job in front of us and never read off a list, and payment is after the work, by cash, bank transfer or card.

How much does a clean cost?

Services and scope

What is the difference between regular and deep cleaning?

Depth. Regular cleaning covers floors, surfaces, bathrooms and the kitchen. Deep cleaning goes further: inside appliances, behind furniture, grout and skirting boards. We recommend a deep clean every two to three months.

Deep cleaning runs in villas and buildings, in commercial property, on upholstery and carpets, and when someone moves in or out.

From the journal: Move-out cleaning: what a landlord can deduct

How do you clean high-rise glass and facades?

Without scaffolding. Water-fed pole systems for high-rise glass, and drone-assisted facade cleaning by certified operators. Which method suits depends on the building and its height, so send a photo or the tower name with your enquiry.
