Sophie’s After Builders Cleaning Service Barnard Castle – County Durham
Location: Barnard Castle, County Durham
Property Type: 4-Bedroom Detached House
Service Date: March 2025
Project Duration: 1 Day (4-person team)
️ Background & Circumstances
Mrs. Thompson had recently undertaken an extensive renovation of her home in Barnard Castle. The project included a full kitchen refit, plastering and repainting throughout, new hardwood flooring on the ground floor, and the installation of bespoke shelving units in the study.
Although the builders had done a rough clean-up, the property was left with thick construction dust on every surface, splashes of paint on window frames and switches, and adhesive residues on the new floor. With her family scheduled to move back in within 48 hours, she needed a professional and thorough after builders cleaning service—and fast.
What We Cleaned
Our team arrived at 8:00 AM sharp, equipped with HEPA-filter vacuums, professional-grade degreasers, paint remover solutions, and eco-friendly surface cleaners. Here’s what the clean entailed:
1. General Areas (All Rooms):
Removal of dust from walls, ceilings, and skirting boards.
Deep vacuuming of carpets upstairs and sweeping and mopping of new hardwood floors downstairs.
Careful removal of plaster splashes on door frames and window sills.
Dust extraction from behind radiators, sockets, and light fittings.
2. Kitchen:
Full degreasing of newly fitted cupboards inside and out.
Polish and clean-up of all appliances including oven, hob, and fridge.
Grout cleaning and removal of tile adhesive smears.
Paint removal from worktops and stainless steel fittings.
