For more information on our builder's cleaning services, use the enquiry box on this page, and one of our friendly team will call you to discuss the options.
There are two main types of new-build cleaning within the construction industry: After Builders and Sparkle Clean. We offer full cleaning services for both types, and trained builders' cleaners can carry out this work at short notice if necessary.
The most popular post-building cleaning options area:
Once the builders have completed the bulk of their work, our builders' cleaners carry out a full deep cleaning service. These cleans are often quite complex and involve getting rid of dust that has built up, often getting trapped in hard-to-reach places. Our experienced teams know what we are looking for; dust and dirt above the doors and door frames and on top of dust of kitchen units. We also clean paint specks and remove them from kitchen and bathroom suites. Our teams also remove the protective glass coverings on the windows and tape around the window frames.
With our wide range of experience within the construction industry, our experienced builders' cleaners can also identify any snags in the properties, communicating these to builders to ensure they can rectify any issues. This primary deep cleaning allows the builders to go onto the final stage and finish all of the required building works and tweaks.
After the initial builders clean, the final stage of cleaning is then carried out. This is known as a Sparke Clean:
Once all the final building work is completed and the construction company is ready for the handover to the new homeowners, professional cleaners are called in to complete a "Sparkle Clean." In many ways, this is similar to an end-of-tenancy clean. A sparkle clean is basically when a property is brought up to showroom standards. No stone is left unturned.
Our skilled, fully insured building cleaning service teams specialise in these sparkle cleaning jobs and are very experienced in this field. We work with major housebuilders as well as independent building companies. We bring all the assigned properties up to amazing standards, leaving every building, room, and communal area gleaming like a showhouse.
We pride ourselves on our finishing touches. Whether shining up the kitchen and bathroom taps or giving tiled and wooden floors a glossy finish, we know how to show a building off to its maximum potential, leaving no new tenant or homeowner disappointed.
Professional Cleaners UK assures homeowner and housebuilder satisfaction. We work together with the construction company for the best end result, ensuring that the properties are presented and handed over in impeccable shape. We do this by adhering to a strict "new builders service checklist" and ensuring that all our work is carried out and inspected.
For more information about our sparkle cleaning and construction cleaning contact us today. We carry these cleans on domestic and commercial properties.
The costs of a new build, post builders or sparkle clean depends on a number of factors, these are namely:
Size of the property—Some cleaning jobs are just needed on small flats or apartments after building work, and on other occasions, we may need to clean an entire newly built housing estate development. Let us know what you are looking for, and we will quote accordingly.
The number of sparkle cleaners or builders' cleaners required varies. Sometimes, we send just a couple of cleaners to tackle a sparkle or new build clean, and other times, we can send larger teams to get the job done more quickly.
Turnaround time - if you need the job done in a set time frame or there is more flexibility, let us know.
Bespoke requirements and extras - our teams can also carry out full and deep carpet cleaning, jet washing and other jobs should these be necessary.
For a bespoke quote, contact us today. We can give you an initial ballpark figure or visit the property or building to put together a quote based on your individual requirements after construction work.
For all our cleaning tasks carried out as part of this New Build cleaning service, we at Professional Cleaners have “Satisfaction Sheets” which are signed off by an on-hand construction cleaning company representative. This is our way of checking that our construction and building clients are 100% happy with all the work. If there is something we think needs more attention we will rectify it there and then. We know with new build and sparkle cleans time is paramount, as is total satisfaction. In having these professional sign-off sheets, we make sure that a busy process runs smoothly - ensuring that all parties are happy with the work carried out.
Our cleaning staff is not only very experienced but also qualified and fully insured to work in this industry. Having studied the relevant courses, they are aware of the code of conduct and wear protective clothing, including hi-vis vests, steel-toe cap boots, protective clothing, and helmets. Working on new estates and in blocks of flats means that our cleaners may also be seen by existing homeowners and tenants. In light of that, they are always well-presented and considerate as they go about their work.

“What is a sparkle clean, and is it different from a builders clean?” Yes, they are different. A sparkle clean is when a team of cleaners carry out a high-quality deep cleaning service on a new or renovated premise so it is ready for new tenants to move in– everything will shine and sparkle. A builder's cleaning is more industrious; it is basically new build cleaning, which can mean the cleaning of dust and more heavy-duty elements after building works. Our new-build cleaning service teams complete both builders cleans and sparkle cleans (we also offer end-of-tenancy cleaning options for those moving out of a property).
“How much do you charge?” New-build cleaning prices vary depending on the size of the property and the amount of work required. Our fully insured teams will often visit a site to assess the amount of work before sending a quote.
"What is included in a builder clean?" The answer can vary, but it is essentially a post-builder cleaning service. This means the deep cleaning of dirt, dust, and debris, which can be ingrained and require specialist equipment and products.
"What is included in a sparkle clean?" A sparkle clean is a little different from a more industrious builders' clean. It's more about bringing a property up to showroom living standards. This type of deep clean is more aligned with an end-of-tenancy clean. It is more about adding finishing touches, polishing, high-quality glasswork, hoovering, etc.
"How do you clean after a builder?" Builders cleaners are specially trained and are normally sent in to deal with this, as the environments can be dusty with specialist cleaning equipment and products used.
“We have just had some builders work done in our house and are uncertain which type of cleaning we need as it is very dusty and it definitely needs a deep cleaning. We think it would be too much for a normal domestic cleaning team but are uncertain whether to opt for a builders cleaners or even an end-of-tenancy cleaning, what would you suggest?” If the work has been quite heavy we would suggest builders cleaners, as they can use equipment to really lift dust and debris, they can also use specialised products and equipment, domestic cleaning wouldn't be appropriate.
We believe that our sparkle cleaning service is second to none, offering great results and fantastic value for money. When you contact us, make sure you tell us what you are looking for, the location of the property and the turn-around time. We will then put together a quote and bespoke cleaning plan so you get the results that you need. We also look after onsite office cleaning for building companies as well as offering on-doing domestic cleaning to new tenants, so if you would also like a quote on office cleaning as well as sparkle cleaning services, make sure you let us know and we will put a quote together.
