After Builders Cleaning in Newcastle

Construction dust behaves differently from everyday household dust. It is much finer, it drifts into rooms that were never worked on, and it settles on door tops, skirting boards, light fittings and inside new cupboards. A quick sweep and wipe moves it around, and within a day or two it has settled again on every flat surface.

An after builders clean from Tenant Clean works from the top of each room down to the floor, so dust is removed rather than redistributed. Newcastle has a steady stream of refurbishments, from Victorian terraces in Heaton and Gosforth being brought up to date to new apartments in the city centre and on the Quayside, and the same careful approach suits all of them.

Cleaning new surfaces with care

New worktops, tiles, glass and sanitaryware can scratch or dull if they are cleaned with the wrong product. Paint spots, plaster and adhesive are lifted using methods suited to each surface, so the finish the trades worked hard on is left intact.

The clean is the same thorough job whoever books it, but the reason for booking tends to differ.

Landlords preparing to let

A builders clean before letting means the property photographs well for marketing and the check-in inventory records a genuinely clean home. It also gives the incoming tenant a fair starting point, which helps when the property is inspected again at the end of the tenancy. Landlords can find more about cleaning for landlords and letting agents.

Homeowners after building work

After a new kitchen, an extension or a full renovation, most people simply want their home back. A professional clean removes the dust that keeps reappearing, so you can unpack and settle in.

Builders and developers

A final clean before handover lets clients and buyers see the work at its best. Tenant Clean can clean single properties or individual units within a development, with the scope agreed when you request a quote.

New build cleaning

New builds often arrive with dust, labels and fitting marks still in place. A new build clean prepares the property for moving in or for a tenant's check-in. For a lighter clean before moving into a property that hasn't had building work, see move-in cleaning.

Tenant Clean does not remove rubble, offcuts, packaging or other building waste. Skips, bags and leftover materials should be cleared by the builder or the property owner before the clean, so the cleaner can reach every floor and surface.

Repairs, decorating touch-ups and making good are also outside the clean. If you notice damaged paintwork or a fitting that needs attention, it is best raised with your builder before the cleaner arrives. The property needs electricity and hot water in place on the day, and the cleaner brings all equipment and products.
