Pricing
Post-Construction Cleaning Prices by Home Size
We price post-construction cleaning on the conditioned square footage we clean (your living area) and on how much renovation dust and residue is on it, not on bedrooms. Most full-home cleans land between $0.50 and $0.85 per square foot. Garages, patios and lanais are priced as small add-ons.
Every full clean includes: every surface dusted and wiped from ceiling to baseboard; cabinets and drawers inside and out; all bathrooms detailed; appliances inside and out with film and stickers removed; light fixtures, fans and vents; closets and shelving; and floors HEPA-vacuumed and cleaned last with products matched to the surface. We bring everything. We just need water and power on. See our full post-construction cleaning service.

Windows & Add-Ons
Windows and Add-Ons, Priced Separately
Glass is always quoted on its own line so you can take it or leave it. Interior glass with frames, sills and tracks typically runs $65–$225 depending on the count. Inside-and-out adds the exterior where it’s reachable from the ground or a ladder. Plantation shutters, blinds and clerestory windows are priced into that line.
We don’t clean exterior glass above ladder-safe height.
- Windows: interior glass, frames, sills and tracks, $65–$225 depending on count
- Floor protection removal: paper lifted, tape residue removed and bagged, from $95
- Garage or lanai: garage sweep and vacuum, or patio/lanai sweep, $75–$150
- Tile and grout: machine scrub, about $0.90 per sq ft
- Debris haul-away: quoted per load; bag-and-stage at the curb costs less
- Upholstery: arranged through our partner and quoted separately
Cleaning Phases
Three Phases, and Why You Might Not Need All Three
- Phase 1, pre-paint dust-down: while the trades are still working. Quoted with a written not-to-exceed cap, because nobody can price a house that isn't finished.
- Phase 2, the final clean: once the trades are out. This is the flat-priced clean in the table above.
- Phase 3, move-in touch-up: a few days later, after dust resettles from the ductwork. Typically $295–$495.
Most clients book Phase 2 only. We’ll tell you if the others are worth it. See everything included in our post-construction cleaning service.
Fixed Budget?
Priority Cleans and What's Never in the Price
If the full scope is more than you planned for, we’ll build a priority clean instead: a set block of cleaning time at a flat price, worked in the order you choose (kitchen, primary closet, bathrooms, floors last). The rooms that matter for move-in are finished right, and anything that doesn’t fit is your call, not a surprise.
What’s never in the price
- Wall washing (walls are dry-dusted and wiped, since fresh paint streaks when scrubbed)
- Carpet shampooing
- Hazardous material disposal
- Removing paint, grout haze or adhesive beyond incidental spots
- Exterior pressure washing
If your new floors need more than a clean, we’ll show you rather than risk the finish.

Common Questions
Post-Construction Cleaning Cost FAQs
We hear these a lot. So, we figured we’d put the answers right here to save everyone some time.
How much does post-construction cleaning cost in Palm Beach County?
Most full-home post-construction cleans run $0.50–$0.85 per square foot. Typical totals: $495–$650 for a condo under 900 sq ft, $895–$1,500 for 1,200–2,000 sq ft, $1,300–$2,300 for 2,000–3,000 sq ft and $2,000–$3,300 for 3,000–4,000 sq ft. Homes over 4,000 sq ft get a custom quote from a walkthrough or video.
Do you charge by the job or by the hour?
By the job. Every quote is a flat price, in writing, on a one-page work order that lists every room and surface we’ll touch. If the home is exactly as described when we arrive, the price doesn’t move, and nothing is charged until the job is complete.
Why don't you price by bedrooms?
Construction dust doesn’t care how many bedrooms you have. We price on the conditioned square footage we’re cleaning and on how much dust and residue is on it. Garages, patios and lanais are small add-ons.
Are windows included?
Glass is always a separate line so you can take it or leave it. Interior glass with frames, sills and tracks typically runs $65–$225 depending on the count.
Do you haul away construction debris?
Yes. Debris haul-away is quoted per load, and bag-and-stage at the curb costs less.
When should I schedule my post-construction clean?
Once the trades are out and water and power are on. If work is still going, fresh dust settles right back onto clean surfaces. If you need a dust-down while trades are working, that’s Phase 1 and we quote it with a written not-to-exceed cap.
Do I need all three cleaning phases?
Usually not. Most clients book the final clean (Phase 2) only. We’ll tell you if a pre-paint dust-down or a move-in touch-up is worth it for your project.
What if the full clean is over my budget?
We’ll build a priority clean: a set block of cleaning time at a flat price, worked in the order you choose, so the rooms that matter for move-in are finished right.
What's not included in the price?
Wall washing, carpet shampooing, hazardous material disposal, removing paint, grout haze or adhesive beyond incidental spots, and exterior pressure washing.
How do I get a firm price?
Use the quote form at the top of this page, or text the address, square footage, bed/bath count, what was renovated and a short walkthrough video to (561) 408-4020. You’ll have a written work order the same day, usually within the hour.
