Builders & Construction Cleaning Melbourne
When construction finishes, the dust and detail work begins. Our builders-clean teams remove fine construction dust, detail glass, fixtures and wet areas, and leave the space ready to hand over, open or occupy.
Who this service is for
For builders, site managers, project managers, shopfitters and developers delivering commercial fit-outs, new builds, refurbishments and multi-unit projects across Melbourne who need a clean that passes inspection first time.
Staged cleans that follow your program
A builders clean is rarely one visit. We typically run a rough clean once trades are substantially complete, a detailed final clean before practical completion, and a sparkle or defect clean after the defects walk. Each stage is quoted separately so your PM can align it to the program, and we resource to your handover date, including short-notice and weekend work.
Detail work that holds up to inspection
Fine plaster and silica dust settles everywhere: inside cabinetry, on top of door frames, in window tracks and light fittings. We remove it properly rather than moving it around, then detail glass and frames, remove stickers and paint spots, clean and polish wet areas, and finish floors to suit the surface. The result is a site your client walks into without a snag list for cleaning.
