Final Construction Cleaning
The final clean is the detailed clean that gets a building ready for the owner's walkthrough. Limpieza La Yaquesita works from a written checklist built for your project, cleans every installed surface from the top down, and ends with a walk of the space with your representative.
When to schedule it
After the trades have finished their work in the area, including paint, flooring, fixtures and appliances, and before the owner's or buyer's walkthrough. If trades will return afterward for final items, plan a touch-up clean for the day before handover.
Final clean checklist
Top down
- Dust ceiling fans, light fixtures, vents and grilles
- Dust tops of door frames, window frames, cabinets and shelving
- Wipe walls where dust has settled on textures and ledges
Windows and glass
- Clean interior glass, frames and sills; vacuum and wipe window tracks
- Remove manufacturer labels and protective films
- Scrape paint specks and overspray from glass with a blade where the glass type allows
- Exterior glass reachable from the ground, when listed in the scope
Kitchens and baths
- Clean cabinets inside and out, including shelves and drawers
- Clean countertops and backsplashes
- Clean and polish sinks, faucets, tubs, showers and toilets; remove labels and residue
- Clean appliances inside and out and remove packaging and stickers
- Clean mirrors and shower glass
Doors, trim and hardware
- Wipe doors, frames, baseboards and trim
- Clean door hardware, switch plates and outlet covers
Floors
- Vacuum carpet with HEPA-filter vacuums
- Vacuum and damp-mop hard floors with products suited to each floor type
- Clean thresholds and corners where dust collects
Labels, stickers and residue limits
We remove labels and stickers when they come off without damaging the finish. Adhesive on coated glass, specialty finishes or unsealed stone may need a product the manufacturer approves. In those cases, Limpieza La Yaquesita flags the spot and asks you how to proceed. Overspray on finishes other than glass is reported to the trade responsible.
Handover sign-off
At the end of the final clean, our lead walks the space with your superintendent or the owner's representative. Cleaning items found on the walk are corrected the same day where possible. Items that belong to other trades, such as paint marks, damaged finishes or missing hardware, are noted for your list. When the walk is complete, you sign off on the cleaning scope.
Not included
- Painting, caulking, grouting or repairs of any kind
- Floor stripping, sealing or refinishing
- High exterior glass or anything that needs a lift, unless written into the scope
- Hauling debris off site
- Hazardous materials, mold or biohazards
How the price is set
Limpieza La Yaquesita prices a final clean from square footage, the number of kitchens, bathrooms and fixtures, the amount of glass, label and overspray conditions, ceiling heights, access and the schedule. Multifamily units can be priced per unit.
