The service, locally
After builders cleaning in Kew TW9
Kew'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 for Kew (TW9) addresses — and 64% owner-occupation locally, with Richmond upon Thames parking rules in play.
Most Kew bookings follow a rear extension, side return or loft conversion in this 41% flats neighbourhood, with 4,163 households on this patch — and 30% of TW9 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: Narrow streets with permit bays, level crossings and conservation-area frontages.

How the project runs
A builders clean in Kew 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.
