Top After Builders Cleaning related questions

In general, a house cleaning service’s cost depends on the tasks involved. On a per hour basis in Australia, regular cleaning is at $20 to $60; deep-cleaning at $60 to $90; spring cleaning at $70 to $400; window cleaning at $30 to $50; floor cleaning at $30 to $120; and upholstery cleaning at $50 to $200, among others.


If you’re looking to have your office tidied up, the regular cleaning rate starts at $30 to $37 per hour, while deep-cleaning is at $37 to $50 per hour.


Do welcome changes, though, as these are for the usual cleaning tasks. Cleaning up after construction, refurbishment, or refitting involves removing a lot of dust and getting into every nook and cranny of the house. Your location, room size, service inclusions, and additional requests can also influence the price.

Not necessarily. When booking a post-renovation cleaning service, your Tasker can bring the necessary cleaning supplies, equipment, and detergents with them so they can proceed with the task as soon as they arrive. However, if you prefer to have them use your own supplies, just let them know beforehand.

This activity isn’t exactly a breeze. It requires a lot of dusting, wiping, mopping, and vacuuming—plus, it would take a lot of your energy and time. If this doesn’t sound ideal for you, you can always book someone proficient in an after builders cleaning service on Airtasker through a few clicks.

Begin by preparing a cleaning solution, consisting of water and vinegar, diluted dishwashing liquid, or select glass cleaning chemicals. You will need to wipe each pane from top to bottom, and dry it with a microfibre cloth or newspaper. Depending on the dirtiness of the window, you may have to wash it twice or use an ammonia-based cleaner to remove tough stains. You will also need to clean the screens and wipe the window sills and frames.

Unless specified in your contract, you cannot expect builders to clean up after themselves. It’s usually up to the property’s owner to take care of the site once the builders leave. While you can choose to dust, vacuum, and polish the newly-built area, you can also hire a cleaning expert to handle this job for you.

It depends on how messy and big your place is. But since it's more than just a deep or maintenance clean, it would typically take

several hours to clean after a renovation. We recommend blocking half a day for this particular task, so your Tasker can make sure that every inch of your place is squeaky clean.


It can take over 12 hours to clean a 4-bedroom house.

With post-renovation cleaning services, you need to know if your potential cleaners have the appropriate supplies and equipment required to tidy up specific renovated properties. Also, take note of their scheduling availability and flexibility, as it’s ideal to have them on stand-by during renovation day. You can also scroll through reviews and ratings, so you can better gauge if they suit your needs.

In the platform, you can connect with workers specifically for move-in cleaning, end-of-lease cleaning, and even housekeeping, among others.

What do after builders cleaning services include?

No need to worry about removing remaining traces on your own—booking a post-renovation cleaning service can protect the quality of your property after a major change. The after builders cleaning process includes dusting, vacuuming, and polishing your space to get rid of unnecessary elements. This also means cleaning all fixtures, switches, sockets, surfaces, woodwork, and hard floors.


Enjoy the results of your newly-renovated home or workplace by exploring these offerings:


Dusting ducts, vents, and grates 

The process of post-renovation cleaning starts with removing all large pieces of debris, renovation material leftovers, and tools left by the workers. Renovation cleaners usually do this after installing the mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems. The most vital part is cleaning the grates and vents.


Dust and debris get suspended in the air and easily permeate your vents. It’s important for your Tasker to remove the vent covers from the walls and ceilings, clean each one using soap and warm water, and dry them thoroughly. Better yet, the specialist can replace any exposed air filters with fresh ones before changing the covers, as breathing unfiltered air can lead to allergies and respiratory issues.


Cleaning rooms, fixtures, and furniture

Your Tasker’s next step is to deep-clean your kitchen, bathroom, and other nearby areas affected by the renovation. 


For windows, your hired expert will wipe down and polish the insides—including the window sills and frames—and wash and dry the screens. 


They can also remove the dust and dirt from your doors, plus their frames and handles. A lot of unnecessary elements get trapped in the skirting board as well, so the specialist is expected to freshen up your walls and other surfaces. Mouldings are also a no-no.


Your hired worker can also clean the affected fixtures and appliances like lights, switches, sinks, toilets, stoves, and backsplashes. Dust and dirt can travel into your furniture like cabinets and closets, so it’s a must to take out everything stored inside and wipe the interior shelves, with extra attention given to the hard-to-reach corners.


Vacuuming upholstery and floors

Upholstered furniture can be a lair of dirty particles. Allowing dust to settle after a major revamp can lead to ugly and damaging results. When they are left between the fabric fibres, dust loosens the weave and leads to wear and tear of the material. Your Tasker can vacuum all soft surfaces, each furniture cushion, as well as underlying frames.


Tidying up the floor is the final step in an after builders cleaning session, as this is where the dirt and debris massively wind up. This involves cleaning paint spots, plaster, footprints, and other stains. They can sweep away large chunks of building materials, screws or bits of sawdust before running the vacuum.


Give your Tasker a heads up on what kind of floor you have, as this is important in their process. You can also request them to deep-clean your stairs and hallways, and even polish your tiles.
