How the project runs

A builders clean in Croydon from programme to sign-off

Five steps, planned around your trades and your handover date — the same sequence on every Croydon post-construction clean we run.
  1. Tell us the works, not just the bedroomsA single kitchen refit, a rear extension, a loft, a whole-house refurb or a new-build handover are different jobs.
  2. Get a fixed price and a slot in your programmeThe estimate is fixed against the works, the dust level and any add-ons.
  3. Stage 1 while the last trades finish, if you need itContractors usually book a rough clean so the site stays workable: debris and sheeting out, floors HEPA-vacuumed, labels off, everything safe for second fix and snagging.
  4. Stage 2 — the full post-construction clean, top downOnce the site is clear, a DBS-checked team works ceiling to floor with HEPA extraction: high dusting, ledges, joinery, glass, sanitaryware, appliances, then floors last — twice over, because fine dust falls again.
  5. Stage 3 sparkle, walk-round and the re-sparkle promiseWe come back for a sparkle pass on handover, photography or move-in day and walk the property with you against a snag sheet.

Add-ons and local costs

What can change the price in Croydon and what never does

Add-ons are optional and priced up front across Croydon. Everything on the right is already inside your quote rather than hidden in small print.

Parking, permits and skip bays
Tram-line crossings, narrow terraced streets and permit bays near the tram stops. Any permit, bay suspension or dispensation in London Borough of Croydon's zone is arranged and paid for by us. If a skip or hoarding licence is still live on the street we work around it rather than asking you to move it.

This housing stock

Where construction dust hides in Croydon homes

1930s semis, Victorian terraces in Thornton Heath, tower blocks and converted office buildings in the centre. That stock decides where construction dust ends up across the borough, so these are the places we go first.

Radiator fins, backs and the wall behind them

Plaster and sanding dust falls straight into a radiator and then gets blown around the room the first cold evening on the streets near Ashburton Park, with Ashburton Park a few streets away.
