In short

Corporate Cleaning Solutions has done builders cleans across Brisbane for builders and architects, but is not taking on new builders cleans at the moment. Its builders cleans removed cement dust, paint splats, overspray and rubbish, and owner Justin Ranson inspected every inch before handover.

Builders work hard. Builders work fast. As a consequence, they can leave behind offcuts, stains, dust and other debris, and cleaning up that mess is slow and difficult. We have the equipment and skills to remove cement dust, paint splats and other odd marks, take the rubbish away and leave the area pristine.

If someone is buying a new building, that is what they should get: no excuses, no compromises and no callbacks. We help builders and architects hand over a building in as-new condition, so the client sees the home or office they envisioned, not the overspray on the windows.

Justin's builders cleaning experience includes the refurbishment of the University of Queensland medical research facility attached to the Royal Brisbane Hospital, architect-driven home renovations in West End, and years as Ausco Modular's sole cleaning contractor, servicing their demountable buildings from Brisbane to Chinchilla.

Builders cleans in Brisbane

What is a builders clean?

The clean between the trades leaving and the owner moving in. Building work leaves cement dust, paint splats, overspray and offcuts behind, and a builders clean removes all of it so the building is handed over in as-new condition, not as a site.

What is the difference between a rough clean and a final clean?

Timing and purpose. A rough clean prepares the building for the last trades; a final clean prepares it for the owner.

StageWhenWhat it is for
Rough cleanUsually after lock-up, before floor coverings go inLumps of sealant and adhesive come off, so floors lay level and early defects are easier to spot
Final cleanBefore handoverDust, paint and overspray off every surface, rubbish taken away
Final inspectionBefore handoverJustin inspects every inch, to stay off the defect list rather than fix it

How do you protect new finishes during a builders clean?

By following the maker's instructions. Before we start, we ask for the specs for every floor covering, benchtop and tile, and clean each one the way its manufacturer recommends, so warranties stay valid.

Who have you done builders cleans for?

Builders and architects across Brisbane. Justin's experience runs from architect-driven renovations in West End to a university medical research facility and years as a modular building company's sole cleaning contractor. His article introducing us to the building industry tells the story.

How Justin runs a builders clean

Four steps to a handover with no cleaning defects.

  1. 1

    Consult

    We agree cleaning standards, timelines and safety with you, and ask for the specs for floor coverings, benchtops and tiles, so every item is treated to the manufacturer's recommendations and warranties stay valid.

  2. 2

    Rough clean

    Usually after lock-up and before the floor coverings go in. It is hard to lay a level floor over lumps of sealant and adhesive, and early defects are easier to spot.

  3. 3

    Final clean

    We bring the building back to its best, turning it from a building site into a new build to be proud of.

  4. 4

    Final inspection

    Justin personally inspects every inch of the building before handover. The aim is not to fix the defect list, but to stay off it.

FAQ

Builders cleaning questions

Something else? Call Justin on 0410 689 872.

Are you taking on builders cleans?

Not at the moment. We are not set up for new builders cleans right now. We still clean offices and commercial buildings, private schools, childcare and medical centres and body corporate buildings across Brisbane.

What does a builders clean include?

Removing cement dust, paint splats, overspray and other odd marks, taking the rubbish away, and leaving the building pristine and ready to hand over in as-new condition.

How long does a builders clean take?

It depends on the size of the building and how much dust, paint and debris is left. We scope it at the site visit and agree timelines with you before we start, usually a rough clean after lock-up and a final clean before handover.

How much is a builders clean?

Every builders clean is quoted after a site visit, because no two buildings are the same. The minimum charge is $80.

When should we book the builders clean?

Ideally twice: a rough clean after lock-up stage but before the floor coverings go in, then a final clean before handover.

Will your cleaning affect product warranties?

We ask for the specs for floor coverings, benchtops and tiles before we start, so each item is treated according to the manufacturer's recommendations and warranties remain valid.

Who checks the work before handover?

Justin Ranson, the owner, personally inspects every inch of the building before handover. Our aim is not to be on the defect list at all.
