Post-Construction Cleaning in Scarborough: From Reno to Move-In Ready
Post-construction cleaning in Scarborough from ~$349 all-in. Clear heavy build dust from new homes and additions in Malvern, Agincourt & the Rouge, pricing inside.
Post-construction cleaning in Scarborough runs from about $349 all-in for a finished basement or single-room build to $800 or more for a whole new home, confirmed from photos of the site. New construction leaves behind a heavy, fine dust and debris that a broom-clean handover doesn't begin to touch, and until it's cleared properly, a brand-new space isn't move-in ready. Here's what a post-construction clean covers in Scarborough and what it costs.

What "post-construction" really means
There are three rough stages of construction cleaning: a rough clean during the build, a final clean once the trades are done, and a detailed touch-up before move-in. Most Scarborough homeowners need the final and the touch-up: the point where the drywall is up, the floors are in, the fixtures are set, and the whole place is coated in construction dust, drywall powder, paint flecks, adhesive residue, sawdust, and the fine grit that settles into every corner. This is heavier and more stubborn than renovation dust, and it hides everywhere: inside cabinets, on top of trim, in the window tracks, across the HVAC system, and baked onto new glass and tile as haze.
Scarborough sees a steady flow of this work. The northeast, Malvern, the Rouge, and Highland Creek, has newer subdivisions and infill builds. Across the older bungalow belt in Agincourt, Bendale, Woburn, Guildwood, and West Hill, homeowners are constantly adding second storeys, finishing basements into apartments, and building additions onto homes that have stood since the 1950s and '60s. Every one of those ends with a space that looks finished but isn't clean, and a general contractor's final sweep is not the same as a real post-construction clean. That gap is what we close.
What's included in a Scarborough post-construction clean
Debris and heavy dust removal first
- Leftover construction debris cleared, then a full top-to-bottom dust removal
- Ceilings, fixtures, fans, tops of doors, frames, and cabinets
- Walls wiped, every vent and return cleaned, window tracks and sills cleared of grit
New surfaces detailed
- Cabinet interiors and exteriors, new counters, backsplash, and appliance exteriors
- Grout haze and adhesive residue cleared off new tile, paint flecks removed from glass and fixtures
- New bathrooms fully cleaned and polished
Floors: the biggest job in a new build
- HEPA-vacuumed, then hand-detailed by material: hardwood, laminate, tile, and grout lines
- Corners, edges, and stair nosings where construction grit collects
- Multiple passes until the floor is genuinely clean, not just swept
Final move-in detailing
- Interior windows, switch plates, handles, and high-touch points
- A second high-dust pass if needed, and a full walk-through with you before we leave
Because a fresh build sheds dust for days, some Scarborough homeowners book a follow-up deep clean once everything settles and the home is furnished: we'll advise honestly whether your project needs it.

When to book, and how it leads into move-in
Book the clean for after every trade is finished and the last debris-making work is done, if flooring, painting, or trim crews are still returning, wait, because construction dust comes back with them. Once we've cleared the build, it's genuinely move-in ready, and a post-construction clean pairs naturally with a fresh start: see move-in cleaning in Scarborough for how we clean an empty home right before your furniture arrives, and we'll sequence the two so there's no gap.
If your project is a renovation of an existing lived-in space rather than a new build or addition, the dust load is lighter and it's scoped as post-renovation work, here's our approach across the 401 in post-renovation cleaning in North York, same method, different scope. Everything we handle across the east end is on our Scarborough service area page.
Why Scarborough builders and homeowners book us
We handle the heavy stuff. Construction debris, drywall powder, grout haze, and adhesive residue need real equipment and real time. We bring HEPA vacuums and the crew to finish it in one go.
We protect brand-new finishes. New hardwood, new counters, new tile, and fresh paint all need the right products and a careful hand. A just-built home is an investment, and we treat it like one.
All-in pricing, re-clean if dust resettles. The quote from your photos is the invoice, and if the air was still settling and a surface needs another pass, we come back.
New builds and additions in Scarborough finish on a tight schedule, book your post-construction clean a few days ahead so your move-in date holds.
