Clear Service Stages, Pricing Factors & Preparation
Our Post-Construction Cleaning Process
We believe in transparent expectations, clear service boundaries, and straightforward quote factors before our team arrives at your Athens, AL door.
Stage 1 • Scope & Customizations
Key Included Tasks & Customizations
Multi-pass HEPA vacuum and microfiber dust capture across ceilings, trim, cabinets, and floors
Interior and exterior detailing of new kitchen cabinetry, bathroom vanities, and closet built-ins
Scratch-safe care for new quartz, marble, matte-black/brass fixtures, and hardwood flooring
Insured and bonded specialists experienced with residential remodels and custom builds
Stage 2 • Pre-Visit Preparation
How to Prepare Before Our Team Arrives
Ensure all sanding, painting, grouting, and contractor punch-list work is complete before your scheduled clean.
Confirm that electricity, lighting, and running hot water are active at the property.
Let us know if your project was a single-room remodel (e.g., kitchen + adjacent living room) or a whole-home build.
Stage 3 • Safety & Scope Boundaries
What Is Not Included / Requires Confirmation
•Hauling away large construction lumber, drywall scraps, or dumpster debris (contractors should complete rough debris removal first)
•Scraping heavy cured paint overspray, stucco, or mortar off exterior brick or high exterior glass without prior on-site confirmation
•Active trades should be finished in the zones being detailed so dust does not immediately resettle
•Covers non-hazardous residential drywall and sawdust detailing only; does not include hazardous-material abatement (asbestos, lead paint, or mold remediation)
What Affects the Cost of Your Quote?
Every Athens estimate is tailored to your property rather than a one-size-fits-all guess. Here are the primary factors we evaluate when preparing your house cleaning quote:
Scope of Renovation vs. Whole-Home New Build: A single kitchen/bath remodel is scoped differently than a full-home new build, though airborne drywall dust often migrates into adjacent rooms.
Drywall Dust Density & High-Ceiling Fixtures: Removing fine gypsum dust without streaking requires multiple dry-vacuum and damp-microfiber passes with frequent water/cloth changes.
Interior Cabinetry & Window Track Detailing: Sawdust inside newly installed custom kitchen and bath cabinetry and window tracks is detailed shelf-by-shelf.
Step-by-Step Home Preparation Checklist
Follow these practical steps before your appointment so our specialists can focus 100% of their time on detailing your surfaces:
Confirm All Sanding, Painting & Trade Work Is 100% Complete: Active sanding or sawing releases airborne drywall dust for hours; schedule your post-construction clean after contractors have finished and exited.
Ensure Bulk Construction Debris & Lumber Scraps Are Removed: Contractors should haul away scrap drywall, lumber, paint cans, and cardboard boxes so our specialists can focus on fine-dust removal and sanitization.
Verify Power, Lighting & Hot Water Are Operational: Full lighting is essential for spotting translucent drywall haze on cabinetry, glass, and tile.
Identify Newly Sealed Floors or Fresh Paint Curing Zones: Let us know if hardwood floors were recently site-finished or if walls were painted within the last 48 hours so we use dry/damp protocols accordingly.

Post-Construction Cleaning vs. Move-In Cleaning
While both services sanitize empty cabinets, closets, and appliances, Post-Construction Cleaning adds a specialized dry-to-wet HEPA vacuuming and multi-pass microfiber protocol specifically engineered to extract fine sheetrock, drywall, and sawdust particles without scratching brand-new stone, glass, or flooring.
