AFTER RENOVATION & BUILDERS CLEANING MELBOURNE
After Renovation Cleaning Melbourne
The renovation is finished. Now it's time to enjoy it.
There's nothing quite like seeing your renovation come together. The new kitchen, the freshly painted walls, the beautiful tiles — everything you've been planning is finally taking shape.
But when the builders leave, they often leave something else behind: dust.
It settles on floors, inside cupboards, along skirting boards and in places you wouldn't expect.
At Emi's Cleaning Services, we provide professional after renovation and after builders cleaning across Melbourne, helping homeowners, builders and property managers put the finishing touches on their projects.
We're a family-run Melbourne cleaning company with over 14 years of experience. We know how much time, money and effort goes into improving a property, and we believe the final clean deserves just as much care.
Let us take care of the cleaning so you can start enjoying your newly renovated space.
PROFESSIONAL AFTER BUILDERS CLEANING
The finishing touch your renovation deserves.
Renovation dust has a habit of getting everywhere.
Even when builders have done their best to tidy up, fine dust and everyday construction residue can remain on floors, window ledges, cabinetry, fittings and newly installed surfaces.
A regular household clean isn't always enough to deal with it.
Our after renovation cleaning service focuses on the detailed cleaning needed once building or renovation work has finished.
We take time to understand what work has been completed, which areas need attention and whether any new or delicate finishes require special care.
From a newly renovated bathroom to an entire family home, we'll help bring out the best in your finished space.
OUR AFTER RENOVATION CLEANING SERVICES
From renovation dust to the final details.
Every renovation leaves behind a different cleaning job.
A freshly painted bedroom won't need the same attention as a newly installed kitchen, and a full home renovation can involve much more detailed cleaning than a single-room project.
That's why we don't approach every property with the same checklist.
We'll assess the work required and tailor the cleaning to your property.
Dust & Surface Cleaning
Fine dust can settle on almost every accessible surface after building work.
Depending on the site assessment and the type of dust present, our general post-renovation cleaning may include:
- Cleaning accessible shelves and surfaces
- Wiping skirting boards and door frames
- Dusting window ledges and sills
- Cleaning light switches and accessible fittings
- Wiping doors and handles
- Cleaning suitable cabinetry and storage areas
- Removing ordinary surface dust from accessible areas
Floors & Skirting Boards
Renovations can leave flooring covered with dust, footprints and everyday marks.
We clean suitable floor surfaces using methods appropriate to their materials and finishes.
This may include:
- Vacuuming floors where conditions and equipment are suitable
- Mopping tiled, vinyl and other compatible hard floors
- Cleaning along skirting boards and floor edges
- Attending to corners and accessible areas where dust collects
- Wiping suitable floor-level fittings and surfaces
Kitchen Cleaning After Renovation
A beautiful new kitchen deserves to look its best.
Our kitchen renovation cleaning may include:
- Cleaning benchtops and splashbacks
- Wiping cupboard doors and drawer fronts
- Cleaning inside empty cupboards and drawers
- Cleaning sinks and taps
- Wiping appliance exteriors
- Cleaning suitable tiled surfaces
- Removing accessible dust from fittings and finishes
Bathroom Cleaning After Renovation
New tiles, taps and shower screens can quickly lose their sparkle when covered in building dust and residue.
We take care when cleaning newly installed surfaces, with attention to:
- Bathroom tiles and compatible surfaces
- Basins, baths and toilets
- Shower screens and glass
- Mirrors and taps
- Vanities, drawers and cupboards
- Floors, corners and accessible fittings
Windows, Frames & Glass
Dust often settles around windows during building work.
Where included in the quote, we can clean accessible interior windows, frames, sills, tracks and glass doors.
Removal of paint spots, adhesive or other construction residues must be assessed first to avoid damaging glass, coatings and surrounding finishes.
Labels, Stickers & Light Residue
New fixtures and fittings often arrive with labels, protective film and adhesive residue.
We can discuss the careful removal of suitable labels and minor surface residue as part of your cleaning quote.
Some adhesives, paint marks and construction materials require specialist treatment and cannot be safely removed through normal cleaning.
All inclusions are subject to the condition of the property, safe access, suitability of the surfaces and the scope agreed in your written quote.
RESIDENTIAL RENOVATION CLEANING
Making your renovated house feel like home again.
Living through a renovation isn't always easy.
There's the noise, the dust, the constant decisions and the disruption to your normal routine.
By the time the work is finished, most people just want their home back.
We help Melbourne homeowners with cleaning after:
Kitchen Renovations
Detailed cleaning of newly installed kitchen cabinetry, benchtops, splashbacks, floors and accessible fittings.
Bathroom Renovations
Careful cleaning of new bathroom fixtures, tiles, vanities, shower screens and floors.
Home Extensions
Cleaning suitable completed areas following extensions, alterations and other home improvement work.
Whole-Home Renovations
A tailored post-renovation clean for larger projects involving multiple rooms, new flooring, painting or updated interiors.
Painting & Interior Updates
Cleaning ordinary dust and accessible marks left after suitable completed interior works.
We'll discuss the finished surfaces and any particular cleaning precautions before we begin.
BUILDERS & PROPERTY PROFESSIONALS
Reliable cleaning before the final handover.
We also work with builders, renovation companies and property managers who need help presenting finished properties.
We understand that the final stages of a project can be busy.
There are trades finishing small details, clients waiting to move in and deadlines that need to be met.
Our after builders cleaning service can be arranged around completed residential renovations and suitable commercial refurbishment projects.
Depending on your requirements, we can discuss:
- Final cleaning of completed residential renovations
- Cleaning before a client handover
- Presentation cleaning for refurbished properties
- Cleaning of suitable completed commercial interiors
- Touch-up cleaning after minor finishing work
We'll discuss the project scope, site condition, access requirements and timing before confirming a booking.
For larger or more specialised construction sites, we'll assess whether the work is within the services our team can safely provide.

AFTER RENOVATION CLEANING FAQ
Questions we're often asked.
What is included in after renovation cleaning?
After renovation cleaning generally focuses on ordinary dust, surface residue, floors, cabinetry, bathrooms, kitchens, window ledges and other accessible areas affected by completed renovation work.
The exact inclusions depend on the property and are confirmed in your quote.
Is after renovation cleaning different from regular house cleaning?
Yes.
Regular domestic cleaning helps maintain a home that's already in use. After renovation cleaning focuses on the additional cleaning needed after building work, particularly the dust and residue that can collect on new fittings, floors and other surfaces.
How much does after builders cleaning cost in Melbourne?
Every job is different, so we don't publish set prices for after renovation cleaning. Give Emi a call on 0481 545 781, tell her a little about the property and what you need, and she'll give you a price that suits your situation.
Can you clean after a kitchen or bathroom renovation?
Yes. We can provide cleaning for suitable completed kitchen and bathroom renovations.
We'll discuss the new finishes, surfaces and cleaning requirements before starting.
Can you clean a whole house after renovation?
Yes, we welcome enquiries for full-home renovation cleaning.
Larger properties may require an inspection or additional planning so we can assess the work involved and provide an appropriate quote.
Do you remove construction rubbish?
Our service focuses on cleaning rather than general building waste removal.
Builders should arrange for major construction debris, leftover materials and hazardous waste to be removed before our cleaners arrive.
Any minor rubbish removal must be discussed and included in the quote.
Can you remove paint splatters, grout haze or adhesive?
Some minor residue may be suitable for careful cleaning, but not every material can be safely removed from every surface.
We'll assess the type of residue and the condition of the surface before confirming what can be included.
Specialist removal or restoration work is not part of our standard cleaning service.
Can you clean while the builders are still working?
For the best result, we recommend booking once building work is finished and the area is ready for general cleaning.
If you're planning a staged project, contact us to discuss whether cleaning between completed stages is practical.
Can you remove silica dust or asbestos contamination?
Our standard after renovation cleaning is not a hazardous-material remediation service.
If asbestos or potentially hazardous construction dust, including respirable crystalline silica, may be present, the site must be appropriately assessed and managed before we can confirm whether general cleaning is suitable.
How long does an after renovation clean take?
That depends on the size of the property, the work completed and the level of cleaning required.
A small bathroom renovation will usually involve a different amount of work from an entire renovated house.
We'll provide an estimate after reviewing your requirements.
Do you bring your own cleaning equipment?
Yes. We supply equipment and products appropriate to the agreed general cleaning service.
The type of residue and any site-specific safety requirements will be reviewed before we confirm the job.
Which areas of Melbourne do you service?
We provide after renovation cleaning across Greater Melbourne, including the western, northern, eastern and south-eastern suburbs, as well as selected areas of the Mornington Peninsula.
Availability depends on the property location and the work required.
