Introduction
Post-construction cleaning is about more than dusting off drywall. The type of building — whether it’s a new home, warehouse, or office — determines what needs to be cleaned and how thoroughly it must be sanitized before final occupancy. Here are the best Tips for cleaning a newly constructed building

Residential Projects | Best Tips for cleaning
Residential post-construction cleanups should address both visible dust and invisible allergens. Focus on:
- HEPA vacuuming: Drywall and sawdust can irritate the respiratory system
- Fixture cleaning: Sinks, bathtubs, outlets, and windows must be polished
- Vent and duct dusting: Prevents the spread of construction particles once the HVAC is activated
- Appliance wipe-downs: Remove adhesives, stickers, and paint splashes
New homeowners expect a fresh, clean space, not leftover debris.

Warehouses and Industrial Facilities | Best Tips for cleaning
Post-construction in a warehouse calls for heavy-duty sanitation. You’re likely dealing with:
- Oily residues and adhesives from equipment installation
- Metal shavings or sharp debris that pose injury risks
- Floor scrubbing to prepare for safety striping or epoxy coating
- Breakroom/restroom sanitization to make spaces ready for staff
Don’t forget the exterior — pressure washing loading docks and walkways is a must.

Commercial Offices and Buildings
For corporate buildings, the goal is readiness for employees and visitors. Your sanitization checklist should include:
- Elevator interior polishing and floor cleaning
- Lobby and common area deep cleaning (glass, furniture, and floor surfaces)
- Disinfection of all high-touch areas, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, and shared desks
- Light fixture and ceiling vent cleaning for aesthetic and air quality reasons
ADHS inspections may apply here, especially in public service buildings.
