The service, locally
After builders cleaning in Mitcham CR4
Extensions and loft conversions around Mitcham Common and the Cricket Green push dust through the whole house in Mitcham — and 25% one-person households here, with 47% owner-occupation locally, so a CR4 builders clean here is never just the new room: the original kitchen, the hallway, the stairs and every radiator in between are inside the quote.
Most Mitcham bookings follow a rear extension, side return or loft conversion in this 46% flats neighbourhood, with 47% owner-occupation locally — and Mitcham Common and the Cricket Green a few streets away, 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: Tram-line crossings, wide suburban roads and driveways on most streets.

- London Borough of Merton 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 Mitcham 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.
