Final Construction Clean in Lawrenceville

What final construction clean covers

• Paint, caulk and adhesive razored off glass, tile and hardware
• Protective film and stickers pulled off windows, appliances, tubs and fixtures
• Window glass, frames, sills and the tracks underneath, done inside
• Inside every cabinet and drawer, where sawdust from the install sits
• Appliances cleaned inside and out, the oven and its racks included
• Light fixtures, switch plates, air vents and the tops of doors

What is usually not included

• Clearing debris and leftover materials. That belongs to the rough clean, and a final booked on a site that never had one is priced differently.
• Grout haze and thinset left by the tile setter. Some cleaners count it and some send it back to the trade, so it is worth settling before the day.
• Touching up paint or filling nail holes. The cleaner takes off what is sitting on the surface; the punch list belongs to the trades.

When to book final construction clean

Book this right before the client walks in or the property is photographed. It is what turns a finished build into a finished space.

How long it takes

The longest of the four construction cleans, and most of that time goes into glass and small edges, since a window is razored and a track is detailed one at a time. On a whole house it often runs past a single visit, and it gets booked to a fixed date because the walk-through follows it.

What makes the price go up

• The number of windows, and whether the glass has film, stickers or overspray on it.
• Two-story entries, high ceilings and light fixtures that need a ladder or a lift.
• The number of bathrooms, since each one is glass, tile, chrome and grout.
• A site that never got a rough clean, which turns the final into two jobs.

What to ask before you book

• Does your price include the windows and the stickers on the glass, or is that extra?
• If the tile setter left haze on the floor, is taking that off your work or theirs?
• Does the site need to be empty of other trades on the day you come?

What final construction clean looks like in Lawrenceville

Lawrenceville is the Gwinnett County seat, northeast of Atlanta, built around the old courthouse square and surrounded by subdivisions of two-story houses with garages and fenced yards, plus apartment complexes along Sugarloaf Parkway and Highway 316. Pine pollen in spring, wet Georgia summers, red clay underfoot.

Most of the work here is in subdivision houses where the bedrooms and full baths are upstairs, so a whole-house clean means the second floor too, not just the rooms a visitor sees. Two-story layouts put laundry, stairs and upstairs baths in the job. The blocks around the courthouse square are older and tighter than the subdivisions, with small rooms, tall baseboards and windows that have to be done by hand.
