Add-ons (optional)

£135–£155

6–8 hrs on site · 2 cleaners

  • Some protection, some not. Plaster and MDF dust on every horizontal surface, paint specks on glass and ironmongery, grout haze on new tiles, silicone smears and sanding dust in the carpet pile. Two passes minimum, because dust falls again.
  • ULEZ applies here and is inside the band above. Hackney is outside the Congestion Charge zone.
  • London Borough of Hackney permits and bay suspensions are arranged and paid for by us, not added to your invoice.
  • Includes the 72-hour re-sparkle promise: if dust settles again before handover, tell us within 72 hours and we come back to it free.

How the project runs

A builders clean in Hackney from programme to sign-off

Five steps, planned around your trades and your handover date — the same sequence on every Hackney 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.

The three stages

Rough clean, main clean then the sparkle

The same three-stage sequence runs in every Hackney postcode, with timings taken from real projects in this borough's housing stock.

3 stages · 26 checked items · every one of them in Hackney

Stage 1 — builders' rough clean

As the trades finish, before second fix

  • Loose debris, offcuts and packaging bagged and removed
  • Protective sheeting and tape lifted and taken away
  • +5 more checked in this stage

Stage 2 — the main after builders clean

Once all trades are off site

  • Ceilings, coving, cornices and light fittings high-dusted
  • Walls wiped or dry-sponged where the finish allows
  • +10 more checked in this stage

Stage 3 — the sparkle before handover

Handover, photography or move-in day

  • Second HEPA pass on every horizontal surface
  • Fingerprints off glass, ironmongery, switch plates and appliances
  • +5 more checked in this stage

Not included

  • Rubble, plasterboard, tiles and heavy construction waste — that goes with your contractor's licensed disposal
  • Asbestos-suspect material of any kind; work stops and you are told immediately
  • Hoarding licences and highway permits for the works themselves

Add-ons and local costs

What can change the price in Hackney and what never does

Add-ons are optional and priced up front across Hackney. Everything on the right is already inside your quote rather than hidden in small print.
After builders cleaning add-ons in Hackney
Add-onFromTime
Builders' waste and packaging removal£90
Post-construction carpet extraction£55
External window and frame clean£75
Parking, permits and highway bays
Narrow terraced streets, permit bays and marsh-side roads that flood after heavy rain. Any permit, bay suspension or dispensation in London Borough of Hackney's zone is arranged and paid for by us. If a hoarding licence is still live on the street we work around it rather than asking you to move it.
Waste — what we can and cannot take
Packaging, sheeting, offcuts and light debris go with us under our waste carrier registration and you get a transfer note. Rubble, plasterboard, asbestos-suspect material and anything hazardous stays with your contractor's licensed disposal route.

This housing stock

Where construction dust hides in Hackney homes

Warehouse lofts, London Fields Victorian terraces, big LA estates and Olympic-era new-build. 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 across E5, with this being a short walk from Clapton (Overground).

Coverage

Builders cleans around Hackney E5, E8, E9, N1

Every area below has its own page with local renovation context, the dust traps that housing stock actually produces, the waste and permit reality, and its own FAQs.

The service and results were very good. We gave them a probably harder job than others for a small apartment deep clean that was still cluttered by the many belongings of the person living in it. They took to the job well, worked hard over many hours and produced very acceptable results. The only issue… Read in full →
