Renovation reset
Post-Construction Cleaning in Toronto
Detailed cleaning after renovations so the finished space is actually ready to use.
Where this fits
What this service is for.
Post-construction cleaning is different from a normal house clean. Fine dust settles into vents, corners, cabinets, trim, fixtures, and nearby rooms long after the contractor leaves. Spotless & Co helps Toronto homeowners turn a renovated space into a usable home again with detail-focused cleaning after the work is complete.
Construction dust behaves differently from ordinary household dust. It is far finer, it travels well beyond the renovated room, and it settles into vents, light fixtures, cabinet interiors, trim, and the tops of doors — then resettles after the first wipe. That is why a post-construction clean is done in passes rather than one sweep, working from the top down and from finished areas outward so dust is not pushed back into rooms that were already cleaned.
Timing matters as much as technique. The final detail clean works best after trades are fully finished but before furniture and decor return, when floors, cabinets, and corners are still reachable. Spotless & Co confirms what is safe to clean, separates construction-dust detail work from standard household cleaning, and plans the sequence around your move-back-in date so the finished space is genuinely ready to use.

Questions
What to know before booking.
Should post-construction cleaning happen before furniture returns?
Ideally yes. It is easier to remove dust from floors, cabinets, corners, and trim before furniture and decor are moved back in.
Do you clean inside cabinets after renovation?
Yes, when included in the scope and safe to access. Cabinet interiors are often one of the dustiest areas after a renovation.
Can you clean while contractors are still working?
Light cleanup may be possible, but the final clean works best after dusty work is complete.
How soon after construction should the clean happen?
Ideally once trades are fully finished and before furniture returns. If the timeline is tight, we can plan around the move-back-in date and prioritize the rooms you need first.
