Post-Construction Residential Cleaning

A complete top-to-bottom cleaning of your Ottawa home after new construction or a major renovation. Our residential post-construction cleaning service addresses every surface, corner, and system in your house to transform it from a dusty construction zone into a move-in ready living space.

Ottawa's clay-heavy soils produce a fine, persistent dust that infiltrates every crack and crevice during construction. Our crews are experienced with the unique challenges this creates, particularly in neighbourhoods like Kanata, Barrhaven, and Riverside South where new subdivisions are built on freshly graded clay. We start with a thorough HVAC vent and duct cleaning to prevent construction dust from recirculating through your home for months after the project wraps.

Every ceiling, wall, baseboard, door frame, and light fixture is hand-wiped to remove drywall dust, paint overspray, and adhesive residue.

Our process includes detailed window cleaning inside and out, full floor scrubbing and treatment appropriate to each surface type (hardwood, tile, laminate, or concrete), kitchen and bathroom fixture polishing, cabinet interior wipe-downs, and removal of any manufacturer stickers or protective films. We pay special attention to areas often overlooked: top-of-door casings, inside closet shelving, behind appliances, and electrical outlet covers.

For heritage properties in Ottawa's Glebe, Sandy Hill, and New Edinburgh neighbourhoods, we use gentle, non-abrasive products that protect delicate original finishes, restored woodwork, and vintage hardware. All cleaning products meet Ontario environmental standards, and our team follows safe disposal practices for any construction debris encountered during the clean.

Spring is our busiest season in Ottawa, as builders rush to complete projects delayed by winter weather. We recommend booking your post-construction clean two to three weeks before your expected completion date to secure your preferred timing. Pricing depends on home size, scope of construction, and the number of cleaning phases required.
