Renovations and construction projects can transform a space, but they always leave behind one thing: a mess. Dust, debris, and leftover materials can make a brand-new space look unfinished and even unsafe. That’s why post-construction cleaning is one of the most important steps after a project.

At Westchester Cleaning Services, we specialize in detailed post-construction cleaning for offices, multi-family buildings, and commercial properties throughout Westchester County, NY. Here’s what property owners and managers should know before scheduling their cleanup.


Why Post-Construction Cleaning Matters

  • Health & Safety — Construction dust, nails, and sharp materials can pose risks to employees and tenants.

  • First Impressions — A newly renovated office or lobby should shine, not look dusty and incomplete.

  • Protecting Your Investment — Proper cleaning helps protect new floors, glass, and fixtures from long-term damage.

  • Faster Occupancy — A cleaned space is ready to use or lease immediately.


What’s Included in Post-Construction Cleaning?

Every project is different, but our services typically include:

  • Removal of construction debris and packaging

  • Detailed dusting of surfaces, vents, and fixtures

  • Window and glass cleaning (removing stickers, smudges, and dust)

  • Floor care (sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, or specialty treatments like strip and wax)

  • Sanitizing restrooms, kitchens, and high-touch areas

  • Final polish for a “move-in ready” space


How to Prepare for Post-Construction Cleaning

  1. Schedule Early — Book cleaning as soon as your project’s timeline is clear. This ensures your space is ready for occupancy without delays.

  2. Provide Access — Make sure cleaners can access all areas, including locked rooms, closets, and mechanical spaces.

  3. Walk the Space — Do a quick inspection before cleaners arrive so you can highlight special requests (like focusing on lobbies or client-facing areas).


How Long Does It Take?

The time required depends on the size and condition of your space. A small office renovation might take a few hours, while a large building project could require multiple days and a team of cleaners.

FAQ: Post-Construction Cleaning

Q: Do contractors usually include cleaning in their work?

A: Most contractors do a “rough clean” (removing large debris) but not a detailed final clean. That’s where professional cleaners come in.

Q: Can you handle large buildings or multi-floor properties?

A: Yes — our team scales for large commercial and multi-family projects.

Q: How soon can you clean after construction ends?

A: We recommend scheduling within 24–48 hours after contractors finish, once the space is cleared for access.
