Post-Construction Cleaning in Redmond, OR

Rough and final cleans for Redmond commercial builds and tenant improvements. We work backward from your handoff date, because on this job that’s the only date that matters.

Redmond builds a lot

Redmond has some of the most active commercial construction in the region, from industrial and shop buildings near the airport to retail and tenant improvements downtown and along the highway corridors. General contractors, project managers, and owners taking possession are who call us, usually with a fixed date and not much slack in front of it.

The two cleans

Rough clean. After the major trades finish, before finish work. Construction debris out, gross dust down, surfaces cleared so the finish trades can work. Functional, not a presentation clean.

Final clean. After everything is installed. This is the one that decides what your client thinks of the whole project when they walk in.

Projects with a hard opening often add a touch-up clean the morning of the walkthrough, because a week of punch-list work undoes a final clean.

Final clean scope

Fine construction dust off every accessible surface: walls, ledges, trim, door frames, tops of casework
Protective film, stickers, and labels pulled from fixtures, appliances, windows, and hardware
Interior and exterior glass cleaned, frames and tracks cleared of debris
Light fixtures, vents, and diffusers dusted
Cabinets and casework cleaned inside and out
Restrooms fully cleaned and sanitized, fixtures polished
Hard floors scrubbed and finished as specified, carpet vacuumed and extracted where required
Paint spots, adhesive, caulk, and joint compound removed from finished surfaces

Dust is the whole job

Everything else on that list is straightforward. Drywall and joint-compound dust is fine enough to hang in the air for days and settle back onto surfaces you already cleaned. A proper final clean is top-down with time for airborne dust to settle before the last surfaces get wiped. A one-pass crew leaves a building that looks clean the day of and hazy the next morning, which is exactly when your client walks it.

Scheduling around your date

Tell us the handoff date and we build backward. We would rather hear a week out that the trades are running behind than show up to a site that isn’t ready. For a Redmond restaurant, clinic, or retail launch with a hard opening, build in the morning-of touch-up. It’s cheap insurance on a date you can’t move.

Most Redmond spaces go straight onto a recurring janitorial schedule once they’re occupied, and this is the natural time to start one.
