Why Ruiru clients book post-construction & renovation cleaning
New homes are going up rapidly in Ruiru, Kamakis and along the Eastern Bypass. After the builders leave, the fine dust, cement splashes and paint marks can take days to remove, and they are often the last thing between you and moving in.
We clean new homes from top to bottom, including cabinets, frames, windows, tiles and bathrooms, and we take care with new finishes. If work is continuing on the neighbouring plot, a second final clean close to your moving date may be sensible.
Many sites here are still waiting for a mains water connection, so tell us what supply is available.

Many Ruiru estates are reached via murram roads, which can be dusty in dry months and muddy in the rains. Share a location pin and let us know about any access issues for equipment. If your water comes from a borehole or a bowser, tell us when it will be available.
Why use a professional in Ruiru
New finishes are easy to damage. Scraping paint off glass with the wrong tool scratches it, and acid-based cement removers can burn grout, stone and metal fittings. Construction dust is also very fine and can harm vacuum cleaners that are not built for it. An experienced team knows which residue can be safely removed from which surface, and that protects the money you have spent on the build.
How to prepare for the visit
- Finish all dusty trades before the final clean
- Confirm water and electricity on site
- Remove leftover materials and tools
- Share your handover date
How we choose the right method
Specialized cleaning starts with looking at the item or surface, because the wrong product or too much water can do more harm than the dirt itself. We ask what the material is, how old it is, what caused any marks and what has already been tried on them. Photos sent by WhatsApp are often enough to give a useful first answer, and larger jobs can be assessed on site. Where a manufacturer has given care instructions, we follow them. It also helps to be honest about limits: some old stains, sun damage and worn surfaces can be improved but not fully reversed, so we explain what result is realistic for your post-construction & renovation cleaning before work begins.
What to expect on the day
On the day, we start by checking the item or surface with you and confirming what was agreed. The area is prepared, and nearby furniture and fittings are protected or moved where necessary. We work through the agreed method and check progress along the way, particularly on stains and delicate materials. Afterwards, we show you the result and explain any drying time or care instructions. Please follow this advice before using the item or walking on the surface, because it protects the finish and gives you the best result. If a mark remains, we will explain why, and what further options may be available.
