Post-Construction
Cleaning
Rough clean, final clean, and pre-turnover polish for builders, general contractors, and developers across the Atlanta metro area. Documented checklists on every phase, so your walkthrough passes the first time.
What Is Post-Construction Cleaning?
Post-construction cleaning is the specialized cleaning that turns a construction site into a finished space — removing construction debris, drywall dust, adhesive residue, paint overspray, and sticker residue from every surface before inspection and handoff. It's a different trade than routine janitorial work: the contamination is heavier, the finishes are brand new and unforgiving, and the schedule is tied to closings and certificates of occupancy.
Altura Cleaning is built around this trade. We serve homebuilders, general contractors, remodelers, and commercial developers throughout the Atlanta metro area, working all three phases of construction cleaning with a documented quality checklist on every job. It's the cash engine of our business, and it's the work our crews do most.
Who It's For
Homebuilders
Production and custom builders who need units inspection-ready on schedule — single homes, townhome communities, and phased developments cleaned to a consistent, documented standard.
General Contractors
Commercial GCs and remodelers handing off tenant improvements, office build-outs, retail spaces, and medical suites. COIs and scope documentation ready for your compliance file.
Developers & PMs
Multifamily and mixed-use developers turning units and amenity spaces, plus property managers taking delivery of new or renovated space that has to show perfectly.
Our Three-Phase Cleaning Process
01Rough Clean
First-phase clean during construction, after major trades: bulk debris, drywall dust, overspray and residue cleared so finishing trades can work clean.
- Bulk debris removal
- Drywall dust & overspray
- Sweep & vacuum all surfaces
- Window sticker removal
02Final / Deep Clean
The pre-CO inspection clean. Every surface touched — fixtures, windows, floors, vents, hardware — with supervisor sign-off before we leave.
- Full interior, top to bottom
- Cabinets, appliances & fixtures
- CO inspection ready
- Supervisor sign-off
03Pre-Turnover Polish
After punch-list trades return post-deep-clean, we restore the property to move-in-ready condition before handoff or closing.
- Post-trade touch-up
- Footprints, dust & smudges
- Glass & fixture polish
- Move-in presentation quality
Ongoing Jobsite Maintenance
Beyond the three phases, we keep active job sites dust-free and clean throughout the build — so your trades can work safely and the site stays presentable at every stage. Scheduled maintenance cleans between phases keep dust and debris from piling up while work continues.
What Every Phase Includes
- Documented checklist signed at completion of each phase
- Interior windows, tracks, and frames — sticker and residue removal included
- Cabinets, drawers, and closets cleaned inside and out
- Appliance cleaning inside and out, protective film removed on request
- Full bathroom detail: fixtures polished, labels removed, tile and glass cleaned
- Floor care matched to surface: hardwood, LVP, tile, polished concrete, carpet
- High dusting: vents, fans, fixtures, ledges, and door frames
- Ongoing jobsite maintenance — active sites kept dust-free and safe to work between phases
- Debris removal coordinated with your on-site disposal plan

Frequently Asked Questions
What does post-construction cleaning include?
Post-construction cleaning happens in three phases: a rough clean during construction (bulk debris, drywall dust, and overspray removal), a final deep clean before inspection covering every surface including windows, fixtures, cabinets, and floors, and a pre-turnover polish after punch-list trades finish. Altura provides all three phases with a documented checklist on every job.
How long does post-construction cleaning take?
A typical 2,500-3,500 sq ft home takes about a full day for the final clean, with rough cleans and turnover polishes running a half day or less. Larger custom homes and commercial build-outs run one to three days. Timelines can be compressed by scaling crew size when a closing moves up.
How is post-construction cleaning priced?
We price by the project after reviewing plans or walking the site, factoring square footage, finish level, and site condition. Estimates are free, and quotes are returned within 24 hours. Builders with recurring volume can set standing per-phase pricing.
Do you work with builders on recurring schedules?
Yes. Most of our builder relationships are recurring - we clean each unit or phase as it reaches the right stage, coordinated with your superintendent. One point of contact, consistent crews, and the same checklist on every unit.
Are you insured for active construction sites?
Yes. Altura Cleaning LLC carries general liability insurance, crews are supervisor-inspected, and certificates of insurance naming your company are available before we set foot on site - standard for GC vendor requirements.
