The service, locally
What a builders clean covers in Thornton Heath CR7
Thornton Heath's side returns and rear extensions leave the same four problems every time — track grit in the new bifolds, plaster dust in the old rooms, mortar splash on the patio and haze on the new floor on Croydon bookings — and 54% owner-occupation locally, with 29% one-person households here.
Most Thornton Heath bookings follow a rear extension, side return or loft conversion in Thornton Heath — and this being London Borough of Croydon territory, with 31% of CR7 homes being privately rented, which means the dust has travelled through the whole house rather than sitting in one room.
Typical works here: rear extensions, side returns and loft conversions. Access and parking: Match-day parking bans, high-street loading windows and narrow terraced streets.

How the project runs
A builders clean in Thornton Heath from programme to sign-off
- 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.
- Get a fixed price and a slot in your programmeThe estimate is fixed against the works, the dust level and any add-ons.
- 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.
- 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.

The team arrived on time, phoned me beforehand and got to work straight away after discussing the priorities. They worked extremely hard, were pleasant, polite and have done a great job cleaning the whole flat. I am recommending the service to others because it is just what people need.
