After builders cleaning in Ancoats

Single room / bathroom refit starts from £160, a kitchen or extension from £280 and a whole-house renovation from £480. Every after-builders price includes HEPA vacuums, ladders up to 3.5m, waste bagging and a settle-down return within seven days.

Construction dust is fine enough to stay airborne for hours. Wash surfaces once and the property greys over again by the next morning. We dust down from ceiling to skirting, let the building settle, repeat the pass, then wet-clean. On Ancoats jobs cornice, picture rails and the tops of original door frames is where the second pass earns its money.

Roughly 15 crew hours for an extension or refit in Ancoats, longer for a whole-house refurbishment. We would rather send three cleaners for a day than one for three.

Ideally the day after the last trade leaves. Book it earlier and you pay to remove dust that a single further cut or sanding will replace. Locally the crunch is July, when loft conversions with a new dormer, en-suite and a full staircase run completions cluster — give us a week's notice that month and the date is yours.

All of M4 is covered by Manchester crews, including the edges that bleed into Northern Quarter, Manchester City Centre, Beswick, Clayton, Newton Heath. Same price whichever side of the boundary the site sits.

Yes, with blades and solvents chosen for the glazing type. We check for coatings first — scraping coated or toughened glass marks it permanently, and on Ancoats jobs microcement and resin floors that stain from the wrong solvent is the finish we most often have to protect from a rushed subcontractor's approach.

We bag and stack waste as standard and issue a waste transfer note when we remove it. Bulk removal is quoted alongside as a clearance job so you get one invoice, and disposal follows Manchester City Council's rules for the M4 postcodes.

Operatives working live sites hold CSCS cards, wear full PPE and are inducted before they start. Every cleaner is ID-checked, reference-checked and DBS-screened, and each job carries £5m public liability cover. RAMS, insurance schedules and card numbers go to the principal contractor before we attend.

Within seven days we come back and re-dust every horizontal surface, re-polish glass and re-vacuum floors for the fines that drop once the heating and ventilation start running. About 45% of Ancoats clients use it, and it is included in the price rather than sold as an extra.

Yes, at the same hourly rate. Fit-outs and commercial units in Manchester are routinely cleaned overnight or across a Sunday so trading resumes on time. Tell us about shared bin stores and a single service lift booked by the hour at booking and we plan the shift around it.

We plan for it. Manchester City Council sets the permit, skip and loading rules here, so tell us at booking whether there is a compound, a driveway, a permit bay or nothing at all. Walk-in distance and kit-carrying time are priced up front, never added afterwards.

Tell us within 72 hours and we return and put it right at no cost — separate from the settle-down visit. Most callbacks in Ancoats are one window or one worktop and take under an hour.
