The time required for post construction cleaning depends on various factors, including the size of the property, the extent of construction work, and the level of cleaning needed. On average, cleaning a small home or apartment can take between 6 to 12 hours, while larger homes or commercial buildings may require multiple days to complete.
A basic clean-up, which removes large debris and dust, may be completed within a day. However, deep cleaning, including sanitization, stain removal, and detailing, takes longer. The presence of extensive dust buildup or stubborn residues like paint drips or grout haze can add extra hours to the process.
Professional post construction cleaning teams assess the project before starting to estimate the required time accurately. They use specialized equipment such as industrial vacuums, steam cleaners, and air scrubbers to expedite the process while ensuring thorough cleaning. Homeowners and business owners should plan for at least one to three days of cleaning to ensure that the property is completely move-in ready.
