Builders & post-construction cleaning in Cairns.

Site-specific cleaning after the trades finish, with residue and scope assessed before the work is confirmed.

After the trades

The site should be ready for the agreed cleaning stage before the service begins.

Residue assessed

Adhesive, paint, grout haze and other residue are assessed for suitability rather than assumed removable.

Clear scope & limits

Where a quote uses estimated labour or a cap, the written quote explains how it operates.

What to expect

A builders clean needs more than a standard house-cleaning checklist

Post-construction properties can vary enormously depending on the stage of the build, the trades involved and the residue left behind. SOS Cleaning assesses the site information and confirms the work that is appropriate for the surfaces and condition present. The written quote defines the agreed cleaning stage and pricing method.

Common items we can include

  • General construction dust removal from agreed accessible surfaces
  • Vacuuming and mopping of suitable floor areas
  • Bathrooms, kitchens and cabinetry where included
  • Internal glass, tracks or detailed finishing items where quoted
  • Final presentation cleaning before handover where agreed
  • Residue removal only after suitability is assessed
  • Heavy waste, hazardous material or specialist restoration only if expressly agreed
  • Additional labour or variations managed in accordance with the written quote

Residue, surfaces and site readiness

Construction residue can require different methods and can present a risk of damage if treated incorrectly. Paint, adhesive, grout, silicone, cementitious residue and similar materials are therefore not treated as automatically removable. If the condition differs materially from the information used for the quote, the work may need to pause while the scope is clarified.

Tell us whether this is a progress clean, pre-handover visit or final presentation, which trades have finished, and what access and power are available. Photos of the residue and new finishes can help identify what needs closer assessment. A completed home needing ordinary ongoing care is better matched to our house-cleaning service.

Written quote controls the job. The final scope, service location, timing and price are the details stated in the written quote you accept. Website descriptions are general information and do not add tasks to an accepted quote.
How it works

Clear from request to written quote.

The website form starts the assessment; it does not create a booking or agreed price by itself.

Questions

Before you request a quote.

Do you remove all construction residue?

No blanket promise is made. Residue is assessed for type, surface compatibility and safe removal. What is included is confirmed in the written quote.

Can you work to a labour-hour cap?

Where an hourly quote includes a cap, the quote explains how the cap applies. Work is not intended to continue beyond an agreed cap without the required approval.

When should the clean be scheduled?

Ideally when the relevant trades are complete in the areas to be cleaned and the site is reasonably ready for the agreed cleaning stage.
