What it covers

Rough, final, or both

Most projects need two passes. A rough clean once the trades are substantially finished, then a final before handover.

Rough clean

  • Construction debris removal
  • Bulk dust from all surfaces
  • Sweep and initial floor pass
  • Sticker and label removal
  • Trash haul to site container

Final clean

  • Detailed dust removal, top down
  • Cabinetry, millwork, casework, shelving
  • Interior and storefront glass
  • Vents, doors, frames, baseboards, fixtures
  • Restroom detail and sanitation
  • Full floor clean to finish

Documentation

  • Check in and check out per visit
  • Before and after photos throughout
  • Upload to your vendor portal
  • Closeout inside contract deadlines

Not included

  • Exhaust hood interiors, NFPA 96 work
  • Floor stripping, waxing or sealing
  • Hazardous waste removal
  • Anything requiring a trade licence
Pricing

What post-construction cleaning costs

Rough clean

  • From $0.35 per sq ft

Final clean

  • From $0.42 per sq ft

Rough and final

  • From $0.65 per sq ft

What moves it

  • Room count
  • Finish level
  • Site access
  • Market

Square footage alone is a poor predictor. A fifteen room medical fit-out and an open retail shell of the same area are not the same job, because rooms mean corners, casework, door frames and fixtures. We price on room count and square footage together, then adjust for finish level and access. A Class A build with luxury millwork takes longer than a warehouse office. A job behind a loading dock and a badge reader takes longer than a walk-in storefront.

Questions

What contractors ask

When should the final clean be scheduled?

Usually four to six weeks out is when it becomes real on a superintendent's list. Final cleaning is rarely a formal bid package, it sits in Division 01 general requirements, so it often gets bought late. Earlier is fine for getting on a vendor list. For the actual date, closer is better.

Can you work while trades are still on site?

Yes, and on most jobs we do. We clean the areas that are finished and come back for the rest rather than working over the top of someone. It usually means phasing across a few visits.

Do you clean exhaust hoods?

Exteriors yes, degreased and polished. Interiors and exhaust ductwork no. That is NFPA 96 certified work and a separate licensed trade, and doing it uncertified is a liability for everyone involved.

What do you need from us before starting?

Access details and a site contact, confirmation of which areas are ready, and whichever documentation system you use for check in and photos. If you need a certificate of insurance naming your entity, send us the exact legal name so it matches your vendor record.

Need a number?

Send the square footage, room count and your target date. We quote from plans, so a site visit is not always necessary.

Recent work

SkinSpirit at Nordstrom, NorthPark Center

A medical aesthetic practice inside Nordstrom at NorthPark Center in Dallas, delivered for a national facility contractor across three phases in four days.

Phase one was the post-construction clean while trades were still finishing the retail wall. Phase two was a general clean after the following day's work. Phase three was the final detail before opening.

Access was through the Nordstrom loading dock after store hours, with crews routed through the closed sales floor to reach the suite. Every visit was checked in and out through the contractor's own system, with before and after photography uploaded to their vendor portal inside a three day closeout window.

Who we are

A commercial cleaning contractor, not a franchise

Neatwick works with general contractors, facility managers and business owners on cleaning that has a deadline attached. Most of what we do is either the final clean before a space opens or the recurring service once it has.

We are not a franchise and there is no call centre. You deal with the same person from quote to invoice. We maintain crews across 24 metros and carry our own insurance on every job, so the standard does not change depending on which market you are in.

Pricing is by the job with the hours stated, not by the hour. Hourly pricing rewards working slowly. Fixed scope rewards showing up and finishing properly, and it means you know the number before anyone starts.
