Post-construction cleaning in Indianapolis typically costs $0.20 to $0.50 per square foot, or roughly $300 to $1,200+ for a standard home or small commercial space, depending on square footage, debris involved, and whether you need a rough clean, a final clean, or both.
Our post construction cleaning services cover new construction, renovation cleaning, and post construction cleanup for homeowners and businesses — removing drywall dust, construction debris, paint splatter, and the fine dust that settles into every surface and vent, so your space is genuinely ready for occupancy, not just swept.
Most homeowners and small business owners have never heard these terms from their contractor — we'll tell you plainly which one (or which combination) your project actually needs instead of assuming you already know the industry jargon.
Happens right after the messiest work wraps — clearing bulk debris, sweeping major dust, and making the space safe to walk through, but not yet presentable.
The detailed pass — every surface, cabinet interior, light fixture, and windowsill wiped down, floors deep-cleaned, and glass polished. Ready for move-in, business opening, or final inspection.
A third pass right before occupancy, after painters, flooring crews, or fixture installers have come and gone one last time. Needed on larger projects.
Whether it's a brand-new build or a post renovation project — a remodeled kitchen, a finished basement, an addition — we clear drywall dust, sawdust, and construction residue so the space is genuinely move-in ready, not just visibly tidy.
For a new office buildout, retail tenant improvement, or ground-up project, we coordinate directly with your general contractor or project manager to hit your punch list and occupancy timeline without becoming the reason your opening gets delayed.
Fine construction dust gets pulled into your HVAC system and recirculates for months. Our cleaning includes wiping and vacuuming visible vent covers and registers. For full internal duct cleaning, we refer you to a licensed HVAC specialist — we'd rather tell you that honestly than pretend to cover it.
Construction leaves behind more categories of mess than a typical cleaning. This is genuinely different work than a standard deep clean, which is why we scope and price it separately.
Bulk construction debris — scrap materials, packaging, and heavier residue cleared as part of your rough clean, prepping the space for detailed work.
New windows almost always arrive with manufacturer stickers and painter's overspray still on the glass — we handle window paint removal and sticker removal as a standard part of the final clean.
Cabinet interiors and exteriors, light fixtures, baseboards, window sills, and every flat surface wiped free of drywall dust and adhesive residue left behind by tape, stickers, and protective film.
Here's exactly what's covered on a top-to-bottom clean — not a vague "we handle everything" promise.
Not included by default: Full internal HVAC/duct cleaning, exterior pressure washing, and disposal of larger materials (paint cans, packaging) stay separate — ask about referrals or add-on scheduling for these.

Rough cleans are priced lower than full final cleans since less detail work is involved. Pricing is confirmed in writing after reviewing your project's scope.
| Project Type | Rough Clean | Final Clean |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Home (under 2,500 sq ft) | $200 – $350 | $350 – $700 |
| Larger Home (2,500+ sq ft) | $350 – $550 | $600 – $1,000+ |
| Small Commercial Buildout | $300 – $600 | $500 – $1,200+ |
Square footage, how much debris is involved, whether you need a rough clean, final clean, or both, and any add-ons like exterior window cleaning or extra dust mitigation.
Construction timelines slip, and post-construction cleaning is almost always the last step before an occupancy permit, a closing, or a business opening — the step with the least room for delay.
Tell us your target date when you request an estimate, and we'll build backward from that deadline. Need it on short notice? We can often accommodate rush requests — call and we'll tell you honestly whether same-day or next-day scheduling is possible.
Construction dust is finer and more pervasive than everyday household dust, and it can aggravate allergy and asthma symptoms for weeks after a project visually looks done if it isn't properly cleaned out of vents, carpets, and soft surfaces.
If anyone moving in has respiratory sensitivities, mention it when you book — we'll prioritize vent covers, air-adjacent surfaces, and can recommend a HEPA-filter approach for the final pass.

A rough clean clears bulk debris and major dust right after construction wraps; a final clean is the detailed pass — every surface, fixture, and window — that makes a space genuinely move-in or open-for-business ready.
A standard home typically takes 4 to 8 hours; larger homes or commercial buildouts can take a full day or more depending on square footage and debris volume.
We handle bulk debris clearing as part of a rough clean, but very large debris removal (dumpster-scale hauling) is sometimes better handled by a dedicated hauling service — we'll tell you honestly if your project needs one.
Yes — deep cleaning addresses buildup in a lived-in home; post-construction cleaning addresses fresh drywall dust, debris, and construction residue in a space that's just been built or renovated.
We clean and vacuum visible vent covers and registers as standard. Full internal duct cleaning is a separate HVAC specialty — we can refer you to a licensed provider if needed.
