Post-construction cleaning removes the fine dust, drywall residue, paint overspray, adhesive residue, and debris left behind after renovation or new construction. The service typically involves multiple passes: a rough clean to remove large debris, a detailed clean of all surfaces, and a final polish for move-in readiness. Drywall dust is especially pervasive — it settles into HVAC vents, light fixtures, cabinets, and every horizontal surface. Our crews use HEPA vacuums and specialized techniques to achieve a truly clean result.

Santa Rosa is located in Sonoma County (Wine Country). Largest Wine Country city, rebuilding after 2017 and 2019 fires with modern construction. The local utility provider is PG&E.

Post-Construction Cleaning in Santa Rosa — FAQ

How many cleaning passes are needed after construction?+

Typically 2–3 passes. Drywall dust resettles after the first cleaning, so a second and sometimes third pass is needed for a truly dust-free result.

Can you clean HVAC ducts after construction?+

We clean vent covers and accessible ductwork openings. For full duct cleaning, we recommend a specialized HVAC duct cleaning service.

When should post-construction cleaning happen?+

After all construction work is 100% complete, including painting, trim installation, and fixture mounting. Cleaning before construction is finished wastes time and money.

Is post-construction cleaning more expensive than regular cleaning?+

Yes, typically 2–3 times the cost of a standard deep clean due to the intensive labor, multiple passes, and specialized equipment required.
