Sophie’s After Builders Cleaning Service Brandon – County Durham
After Builders Cleaning Case Study – Brandon, County Durham
Location: Brandon, County Durham
Property Type: 3-Bedroom Semi-Detached House
Cleaning Duration: 1 Full Day (2 Cleaners)
Date Completed: May 2025
️ Project Background
Mr. and Mrs. Patel had recently finished an extensive home modernisation project at their family home in Brandon. The renovation included removing a dividing wall to create an open-plan kitchen and dining space, installation of new engineered wood flooring, rewiring, re-plastering, and a fresh coat of paint throughout the ground floor. While the builders completed the job on schedule, they left behind the usual mess: layers of fine dust, paint splashes, and sticky residues from protective film on new fittings.
The Patels, expecting visitors within a few days, contacted our After Builders Cleaning Company in Brandon to get their home cleaned to a professional standard — with a particular focus on protecting their brand-new floors and surfaces.
What We Cleaned
Our after builders cleaning team focused on safely removing builder residue and dust while preserving the finish of the new fittings and flooring.
️ Kitchen & Dining Area
- Removed protective films and adhesive residue from cupboards, extractor fan, and appliances
- Cleaned inside and outside of all kitchen units
- Polished quartz countertops, stainless steel sink, and chrome tap
- Wiped tile splashbacks and removed grout smudges
- Cleaned windows, frames, and bi-fold door runners
- Mopped and polished engineered wood flooring using pH-neutral cleaner
️ Living Room
- Hoovered and damp-mopped wood flooring multiple times to eliminate fine dust
- Removed dried paint flecks from sockets, switches, and skirting boards
- Dusted new light fixtures, coving, and door frames
- Cleaned the internal glass of patio doors
Downstairs WC
- Cleaned new toilet and sink
- Removed smears and builder dust from wall tiles
- Polished chrome towel rail and light switch plates
- Mopped floor and sanitised all touchpoints
️ Bedrooms & Upstairs Hall (Light Surface Clean)
- Vacuumed carpets and removed light dust from skirting boards and wardrobes
- Wiped window sills, door handles, and internal glass panels
- Cleaned upstairs windows from the inside
Challenges Faced
- Dust had settled into joints of the new engineered wood flooring, requiring multiple low-moisture passes
- Protective film on appliances left adhesive marks that required non-abrasive, solvent-safe removal
- Minor paint overspray on door hinges and floor edges needed precision cleaning
- Despite these minor challenges, the full clean was completed in one day, transforming the post-construction mess into a bright, fresh, and welcoming home.
Customer Testimonial
“We were amazed at the transformation! We thought we could manage a quick clean ourselves after the builders left, but the dust was everywhere and the floors felt sticky despite sweeping. The team were absolutely fantastic — they worked so efficiently and were really respectful of our new fittings. They even managed to get all the adhesive off our oven door without a single scratch. The house was spotless by the end of the day, and we were ready to welcome guests without stress. Highly recommend to anyone in Brandon doing renovations!”
