Post-construction cleaning for Oakville homes
Drywall dust is the entire job. It is fine enough to settle into every surface, every vent and every light fixture, and it keeps resettling for days after the trades leave. A regular clean just moves it around the house.
We work top-down across multiple passes with HEPA filtration rather than a domestic vacuum, so what comes off the ceiling doesn't land back on the floors you've already done.
What's included
- Full drywall dust removal: ceilings, walls, trim, floors
- Sticker, adhesive and protective-film removal from windows, appliances and fixtures
- Paint flecks and grout haze off tile, glass and hardware
- Inside every cupboard, drawer, closet and appliance
- Vents, light fixtures and ceiling fans
- Window glass, frames, sills and tracks
- Final floor wash once everything above is done
- A second dust pass on the day, after everything has settled
New builds in Upper Joshua Creek
Mattamy is actively closing homes in Upper Joshua Creek, and a new build needs this before your furniture arrives, not after. The right window is once your pre-delivery inspection and any deficiency work are finished and the house is still empty.
Give us two weeks' notice if you have a firm closing date, spring and summer closings book up.
Post-renovation cleaning in Oakville
Kitchen and bathroom renovations, basement finishes, additions. Same approach and usually a smaller job, since it's confined to part of the home. If you're living there through the work we can seal off and clean just the affected rooms.

Post-construction questions
How much does post-construction cleaning cost in Oakville?
Our post-construction rate is $45 per cleaner, per hour, with a three-hour minimum. In practice a condo runs from $270, a detached home under 2,500 sq ft from $450, and 2,500–4,000 sq ft from $650. We quote a fixed price after a short walkthrough rather than guessing over the phone, construction dust varies enormously.
What's different about post-construction cleaning?
Drywall dust is the whole problem. It's fine enough to settle into every surface, inside every vent and light fixture, and it keeps resettling for days. We work top-down over multiple passes, use HEPA filtration rather than a domestic vacuum, and remove sticker residue, paint flecks, grout haze and adhesive from windows, fixtures and floors. A regular clean would just move it around.
I'm taking possession of a new build in Upper Joshua Creek. When should I book?
Book for after your pre-delivery inspection and any deficiency work, but before your furniture arrives, that's the window where the house is empty and the trades are finished. Two weeks' notice is ideal. We do a lot of the Mattamy homes in Upper Joshua Creek and know how they're finished.
Do you handle post-renovation cleaning too?
Yes, kitchen and bathroom renovations, basement finishes, additions. Same approach, usually a smaller job because it's confined to part of the home. We can also seal off and clean just the affected rooms if you're living there through the work.
Do you take away construction debris?
No, we're cleaners, not a disposal service. Larger offcuts, packaging and materials need to be gone before we start, otherwise we're cleaning around them. Fine debris, dust and small offcuts we handle.
What if I'm not happy with the clean?
Tell us within 24 hours and we'll come back and put it right, at no charge. No argument and no invoice for the return visit. We'd rather fix it than lose you over something we can redo in an hour.
