Post-construction cleaning and final clean in New York
Post-construction — NYC, northern NJ & Connecticut

Final cleans get scheduled last and go wrong most

The crew shows up short-handed, the punch list grows, and the owner walk gets pushed. That is the one delay nobody on the GC side can absorb.

We come at this from your side of the table. Our background is facilities and interior construction operations, so a turnover schedule and a punch list read the way your PMs read them.

Phases are priced separately so you are not paying final-clean rates for debris removal. Tell us the walk date and we staff to hit it rather than to suit our own schedule.

Who this is for

  • General contractors on interior fit-outs and renovations
  • Construction managers turning over tenant space
  • Owners and developers preparing for a certificate of occupancy walk
  • Retail and restaurant build-outs on a fixed opening date

Exactly what gets done, and how often

This is the scope that goes into your contract. Delete what you do not need and add what you do — but you will never get a one-line “general cleaning” description from us.

Common questions

How fast can you give us a number?

Send the square footage and scope and we will have a budget figure back within 24 hours. No walkthrough needed for a budget number, though we will walk it before the final price.

Can you staff to our turnover date?

Yes. Give us the walk date and we size the crew to hit it. That is the whole point of pricing the phases separately.

Do you handle debris removal?

We remove construction debris to the container or designated point on site. Hauling and disposal off site stays with your carting contractor unless we agree otherwise in writing.

Are you available for punch-period touch-ups?

Yes, and we recommend it. Punch work always re-dirties finished space, and a touch-up crew on call protects the final clean you already paid for.

Do you clean exterior windows?

Interior glass is included in the final clean. Exterior glass above ground level is a separate specialty trade and we will tell you rather than pretend otherwise.
