Construction Cleaning
Construction cleaning (or Builder's Cleaning) is a
special type of cleaning service that is specially tailored
toward cleaning a home or building after a lot of work has
been done in it. These days, more and more people are
remodeling their homes, and it's hard to enjoy the fruits of
one's labor when the entire home is covered in dust and
plaster from the remodeling. Many companies offer a
builder's clean service to remedy this predicament.
Most of these builder's clean services include intensive
cleaning of the entire home, along with moldings, fixtures,
and other surfaces. A good cleaning company will reach every
nook and cranny of the household and remove all the
unattractive and unwieldy clutter and dust, and maybe power
wash certain areas if need be.
Of course, you don't necessarily need to hire a cleaning
company to do this if you feel that you can do it yourself.
Why not save a little bit of money (if not time) and do it
yourself? When cleaning up after remodeling, you will want
to remove as much dust and other residue from the remodeling
area in particular. Look for hidden clutter and dust in
cabinets, pantries, and drawers. You might be surprised how
intrusive remodeling dust and debris can be.
You will also want to clean your carpets and wood floors;
clean windows (particularly in corners and under panes, if
possible); and intensively clean the air ducts and make sure
that any annoying and potentially harmful dust or other
debris has been totally removed. If there is any odor left
over, take measures to eliminate it with natural and
harmless products, like candles or incense. Try to avoid
using aerosol sprays – they're bad for you, your family, and
the environment. A builder's clean may seem like a daunting
task, but if you're willing to put in some grunt work and
save a spot of cash, you may want to consider doing it
yourself.
A last solution may also save you some money. While the
contractor might be able to offer the clean up-an intensive
clean up, not just carting debris off of the grounds-in the
final estimate, you may be able to find a halfway point
between paying the contractor and doing it your self. Home
cleaning companies are beginning to realize construction
clean up as an untapped market, and will give free
estimates. These are the services that typically one employs
to come in and clean the house on a weekly basis, and if you
call they will often give a lower estimate for construction
clean up if you are going to bring them on full time as a
weekly contract.
One last word on construction clean up. Many home owners are
fine with new construction landscaping, but don't realize
how much sediment can be left behind in the soil from
concrete and other chemical-such as deck stain. Be sure who
ever is doing your construction keeps the place chemical
free when it comes to your lawn and shrubs, and be sure to
ask about this when interviewing potential contractors. A
careful contractor will see to it that you don't end up
having to pay a mint to reseed your lawn.
