The service, locally
After builders cleaning in Paddington W2
New-build completions in Paddington are cleaned to developer sparkle standard — warranty-safe products only, site induction completed on Westminster bookings — and a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood, with 3,981 households on this patch, and the final pass booked for the morning of handover rather than the week before it.
Work in Paddington is mostly handover-standard: developer sparkle cleans, plot completions and post-snagging visits with a programme, a site induction and a client walk-round at the end on the streets near Paddington Basin and Little Venice — and Westminster parking rules in play, with this being a short walk from Paddington (Elizabeth line, Bakerloo, Circle, National Rail).
Typical works here: new-build handovers and developer sparkle cleans. Access and parking: Basin estate loading bays, red routes on Bishop's Bridge Road and stucco terraces with basement steps.

- 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 Paddington 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.
