After Builders Cleaning

Specialized deep cleaning to remove fine plaster dust, paint overspray, silicone residue, and grout haze safely from brand-new finishes.

Protected by £10M Public Liability
Technical Knowledge

Builders dust isn't normal dust

Plaster and gypsum particles are fine enough to travel through a whole property and settle again hours after a standard clean. Domestic vacuums push them back into the air. This is what our teams are equipped for.

What We're Actually Removing

01

Plaster & gypsum dust

Lifted from walls, ceilings, skirting, window tracks and radiator fins — not just the surfaces you can see.

02

Paint splashes & overspray

Removed from glass, tiles, handles, sockets and flooring without damaging the new finish underneath.

03

Silicone & adhesive residue

Sealant smears around baths, worktops and shower screens, plus tape marks and sticker glue on new units.

04

Grout haze & cement film

The cloudy layer left on new tiling and stone that only shows once the light hits it.

05

Protective film & labels

Peeled from appliances, glazing and sanitaryware, with the adhesive line cleaned off properly.
