Initial Inspection
We assess the property, the condition of the surfaces, the work that has been completed and any areas that need additional attention.
Professional after builders cleaning in London for renovations, extensions, refurbishments and new-build projects. We remove construction dust, debris, paint splashes and finishing residue from floors, walls, windows, fixtures and other accessible areas.
Benchmark Cleaning Services works with homeowners, landlords, tenants, contractors and commercial property managers who need a property cleaned after building work.

After builders cleaning is a detailed clean carried out when building, renovation, refurbishment or repair work has finished. Unlike a normal routine clean, the work focuses on construction dust, plaster residue, paint marks, adhesive residue, debris and the fine dirt that can settle on surfaces throughout a property.
Our post construction cleaning service is planned around the condition of the property, the work completed and the areas that need attention. We can clean a single room, part of a property or a larger commercial site, depending on the agreed scope.
Construction creates different cleaning requirements. Fine dust can settle on high and low surfaces, while paint, plaster and other residues may need more detailed treatment.
The exact scope depends on your property and the work completed. A typical after-builders cleaning checklist can include the following areas.

We assess the property first, agree the cleaning scope, complete the work and check the finished areas before the job is considered complete.
We assess the property, the condition of the surfaces, the work that has been completed and any areas that need additional attention.
We remove accessible construction dust and loose debris from floors, surfaces, corners, fixtures and other agreed areas using suitable professional equipment.
We clean suitable surfaces affected by building work, including walls, floors, doors, skirting boards, fixtures and other accessible areas.
Where included in the agreed scope, we clean windows, frames, fittings, switches, sockets, tiles and other finishing details affected by the work.
Newly renovated kitchens and bathrooms receive detailed attention to suitable floors, fittings, tiles, surfaces and accessible fixtures.
We review the completed areas to identify anything within the agreed scope that needs further attention before the cleaning team finishes the job.
Different projects leave different cleaning requirements. We work with clients who need a practical cleaning plan after construction, renovation or refurbishment work.

Post-construction cleaning for offices, business premises and other suitable commercial spaces.
Detailed cleaning when a refurbished property needs to be prepared for its next stage.
Cleaning support for completed construction, refurbishment and handover stages.

Building work can leave fine dust and finishing residue across areas that a normal routine clean may not cover. Our approach is built around the condition of your property and the cleaning scope agreed with you.
Construction work can create different types of dust and debris. Cleaning should be planned so that dust is effectively removed without unnecessarily putting it back into the air.
The Health and Safety Executive's construction dust guidance provides information about controlling construction dust and suitable methods for removing dust and debris.
Building work should be coordinated with the cleaning schedule. If there is a concern about asbestos or another hazardous material, it should not simply be treated as normal cleaning. The HSE asbestos survey guidance explains the role of surveys before refurbishment work that may disturb asbestos-containing materials.
