Removing Debris Before a Space Opens

Post-Construction Cleaning Services in Baltimore

Construction and renovation projects in Baltimore leave behind layers of drywall dust, adhesive residue, paint drips, and sawdust that settle into corners, air vents, and window tracks. Even after contractors remove large debris, fine particles coat floors, countertops, and fixtures, making spaces unusable until a detailed final cleaning is completed. Property owners and tenants cannot move in or open for business until these materials are cleared and surfaces are safe to touch.

Jose's Commercial Cleaning Services provides post-construction cleaning for commercial spaces throughout Baltimore, including offices, retail locations, and newly built facilities. We remove construction dust, wipe down surfaces, clean windows, and prepare floors for occupancy. Our team handles detailed final cleaning so your space is ready for furniture, equipment, and daily use.

If your Baltimore project is nearing completion and needs a thorough cleaning before opening or move-in, reach out to schedule a post-construction service.

What Happens During a Post-Construction Cleaning

We start by removing any remaining debris such as cardboard, plastic sheeting, and small material scraps, then vacuum and wipe down all horizontal surfaces including countertops, shelving, and windowsills. In Baltimore commercial spaces, we use HEPA-filtered vacuums to capture fine dust, then damp-mop floors to remove residue left by foot traffic and equipment. Fixtures, switches, and outlets are wiped clean of dust and fingerprints.

After cleaning, floors are clear and free of grit, surfaces no longer show dust when touched, and windows allow full visibility without streaks or film. The space smells neutral and feels ready for furniture placement and everyday use.

We bring industrial vacuums, extension poles, microfiber cloths, and non-abrasive cleaning solutions to handle different surfaces and finishes. This service does not include heavy lifting, dumpster hauling, or removal of large construction materials, which should be handled by contractors before we arrive. If paint overspray or adhesive remains on glass or floors, we address it during cleaning using appropriate solvents and tools.

Common Questions Before Scheduling This Service

Contractors, property managers, and business owners in Baltimore often ask about timing, what materials we can remove, and how long the cleaning process takes based on square footage and project scope.

What should be removed before post-construction cleaning begins?
Large debris such as wood scraps, drywall chunks, nails, and packaging materials should be cleared by contractors. We handle dust, small particles, and surface residue that remain after the bulk of construction waste is gone.

How long does post-construction cleaning take?
Most commercial spaces take four to eight hours depending on size and the amount of dust left behind. Larger facilities or heavily dusty sites may require a full day or multiple visits to complete.

What happens if there is still wet paint or caulk during cleaning?
We avoid cleaning areas where materials are still curing, as this can smudge finishes or damage surfaces. It is best to schedule post-construction cleaning after all wet work has dried and contractors have finished touch-ups.

Do you clean HVAC vents and air ducts after construction?
We wipe down visible vent covers and remove dust from return grilles, but full duct cleaning requires specialized equipment and is typically handled by HVAC contractors. We can coordinate with those teams if needed.

Can you remove adhesive or paint from windows and floors?
Yes, we use scrapers, solvents, and non-abrasive pads to remove paint drips, sticker residue, and tape marks from glass and hard flooring. Delicate surfaces are treated carefully to avoid scratching or dulling finishes.
