Specialty Service
Post-Construction Cleaning in Portland
Professional final cleaning for construction and renovation projects in Portland. We handle the dust, debris, and detail work so your space is move-in ready.
Why Post-Construction Cleaning Is Different
Construction leaves behind a unique mess: fine dust that settles everywhere, adhesive residue, paint splatters, sawdust in HVAC vents, and protective film on windows. Standard commercial cleaning isn't designed for this level of detail. Post-construction cleaning requires specialized equipment, patience, and a systematic approach.
⚠️ Common Mistake:
Trying to move in before proper post-construction cleaning leads to construction dust circulating through HVAC systems for months, damaging equipment and creating respiratory issues. One thorough clean now saves thousands later.

Portland Construction Cleaning Challenges
Portland's damp climate creates unique post-construction cleaning challenges:
🌧️ Moisture Control
Portland construction sites track moisture constantly. We ensure all surfaces are completely dry before final cleaning to prevent streaking and water spots.
🍃 Mold Prevention
We inspect for moisture accumulation in corners, under sinks, and around windows—critical in Portland's climate to prevent mold growth post-move-in.
🚪 Entry Area Focus
Extra attention to entryways and flooring near doors, where Portland's rainy season creates ongoing tracking issues.
♻️ Eco-Friendly Products
We use Portland-preferred green cleaning products wherever possible, especially important in newly constructed or renovated spaces with sensitive finishes.
