The service, locally
What a builders clean covers in Barnes SW13
Barnes'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 the streets near The WWT London Wetland Centre — and this being London Borough of Richmond upon Thames territory, with this being a short walk from Barnes (South Western).
Most Barnes bookings follow a rear extension, side return or loft conversion on the Barnes rounds, with 57% owner-occupation locally — and The WWT London Wetland Centre 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: Narrow village lanes, conservation-area limits and Boat Race day closures.

How the project runs
A builders clean in Barnes 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.

After Builders Cleaning reviews from Greater London customers
Nicole and Marius were amazing - quick, efficient and they did a great job cleaning our flat after building work finished. It’s clear they really knew their stuff! Would 100% use again.
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 →
Excellent service, would highly recommend. They were on time, professional and friendly. They went above and beyond to clean the entire apartment, the windows, all surfaces, even the ceilings and every appliance and fixtures. You want a job done well, give it to these guys!
