- ULEZ applies here and is inside the band above. Sutton is outside the Congestion Charge zone.
- London Borough of Sutton 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 Sutton 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.
- 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.

About the borough
Sutton in context
Quiet outer-south suburbia — Sutton's high street, Carshalton's ponds and Wallington's Edwardian avenues. Downland villages that boomed after the 1847 railway, with the Little Woodcote and Roundshaw estates added later.
1930s semis and detached houses with driveways, Edwardian villas and post-war estates. On ONS Census 2021 figures the borough holds 82,347 households with a median age of 39, 65.5% owner-occupied and a dwelling split of 37.1% flats to 62.9% houses — the mix that decides what gets built here and how a builders clean is scoped.
Access sets the day's programme. Easy access and off-street parking almost everywhere; only Sutton High Street needs bay suspension.

After Builders Cleaning reviews from Greater London customers
Excellent -very good communicators and great service all round. Sardar and his colleagues did a great job for my end of tenancy clean in Wallington. Thank you
Fantastic, professional service. The team did a thorough job cleaning my unfurnished apartment ready to move in.
The cleaners arrived on time and did a very good job. They worked very hard. Unfortunately, they damaged a blind in the bedroom and left without telling me. Fortunately my son was able to repair the blind. If they had told me about the blind I would have given them a 10!
