After builders cleaning in Cheadle Hulme

We quote on the build, not a Stockport average: from £160 for a single room / bathroom refit, from £280 for a kitchen or extension, from £480 for a whole-house renovation. 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 Cheadle Hulme jobs kitchen plinths, cabinet carcass tops and the extract canopy is where the second pass earns its money.

Budget around 16 crew hours for a local single-storey extension — usually two to three cleaners. Half a day per room, one to two days for a whole-house refurbishment is the rule of thumb.

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 November, when bathroom and kitchen refits with new tiling, boarding and boxing completions cluster — give us a week's notice that month and the date is yours.

Yes — SK8 end to end, and we cross into Cheadle, Bramhall, Hazel Grove, Edgeley, Davenport on the same rate. There is no travel charge anywhere in Stockport.

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 Cheadle Hulme jobs matt-painted plaster still curing for the first four weeks 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 Stockport Council's rules for the SK8 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 72% of Cheadle Hulme 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 Stockport are routinely cleaned overnight or across a Sunday so trading resumes on time. Tell us about occupied neighbouring flats, so noise and dust control matter as much as the finish at booking and we plan the shift around it.

We plan for it. Stockport 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. We would rather re-clean a bathroom than have a contractor explain it to their client.
