From Dust to Done: The Post-Construction Cleanup Process

Even after the builders pack up their tools, there’s still a big mess left behind—dust, trash, and leftover materials. That’s where Smart Janitorial comes in. Our team helps make new buildings sparkle so they are ready for people to use.

Let’s walk through how we take a space from dusty to done.

Step 1: We Take a Good Look

First, we visit the site and check every area. We look for dust, dirt, tape, paint spots, and more. We create a custom plan based on your building’s size and needs.

We don’t guess—we know what to clean and how to clean it.

Step 2: Time to Clear the Trash

There’s always leftover stuff after construction. Nails, boxes, plastic, and wood can be all over the place.

Our team safely removes trash and big items, so nothing is left in the way.

Step 3: Heavy Dusting

Construction dust gets everywhere—floors, walls, windows, vents. If you don’t clean it well, it keeps coming back.

We wipe down everything: light fixtures, baseboards, windows, and even inside cabinets. We use special tools and HEPA vacuums to trap dust, not spread it.

Step 4: Deep Clean Floors

Different floors need different care. We mop tile, scrub grout, and shine hard floors. We can even strip and wax floors if needed.

Dust on the ground is removed completely, not just pushed around.

Step 5: Final Touches

We finish by shining the windows, polishing mirrors, and checking for anything we missed.

Our supervisors do a walkthrough to make sure everything is perfect. If it’s not, we fix it.
