Sophie’s After Builders Cleaning Service Burnhope – County Durham
After Builders Cleaning Case Study – Burnhope, County Durham
Location: Burnhope, County Durham
Property Type: 3-Bedroom Semi-Detached House
Cleaning Duration: 1 Full Day (2 Cleaners)
Date Completed: May 2025
️ Project Background
Mrs. Kendrick recently completed a kitchen extension and interior refurbishment of her family home in Burnhope. The project included a new rear-facing kitchen-diner with bi-fold doors, underfloor heating installation, complete re-plastering of the ground floor, and new tile flooring. The building work was a success — but as with most renovations, the aftermath left a significant layer of dust, grout smears, and paint splashes throughout the house.
As a working mum with limited time and young children eager to move back into their space, she contacted our After Builders Cleaning Company in Burnhope to carry out a full after-builders clean before the new furniture arrived.
What We Cleaned
We focused on eliminating all post-construction debris while protecting the property’s brand-new finishes. Our team worked carefully around freshly painted areas and new flooring using specialist products and non-scratch tools.
️ New Kitchen-Diner
- Removed all packaging residue and protective film from new cupboards, fridge, and dishwasher
- Cleaned inside and outside of kitchen units to remove plaster dust and wood shavings
- Polished countertops, sink, and new chrome tapware
- Wiped down tiled splashback and eliminated light grout haze
- Mopped and steam-cleaned tiled flooring to remove layers of fine dust and dried adhesive
- Cleaned bi-fold doors inside and out, including runners and tracks
️ Living Room
- Hoovered and wiped wooden flooring multiple times to remove fine dust
- Cleaned skirting boards, sockets, light switches, and radiators
- Removed paint splashes from floor edges and skirting
- Dusted newly installed coving and ceiling corners
- Cleaned internal glass panel doors
Ground Floor WC
- Cleaned toilet, sink, and tiled splash areas
- Removed construction dust from shelves and behind the new radiator
- Polished chrome towel rail and fittings
- Mopped tiled flooring and sanitised all touchpoints
️ Bedrooms (Light Surface Clean)
- Vacuumed all carpeted areas and removed dust from skirting boards and window sills
- Wiped down fitted wardrobes, door handles, and light switches
- Cleaned windows internally and removed any smudges from fresh paint
Challenges Faced
- Fine plaster dust had spread beyond the renovation area into hallways and bedrooms
- Sticky residue from protective plastic on cabinets and appliances required careful solvent-based removal
- Grout haze on both the floor and wall tiles in the kitchen needed repeated passes to achieve a streak-free finish
- Despite these issues, the full clean was completed within one working day — leaving the home ready for immediate use and final furnishing.
Customer Testimonial
“After all the building work, I honestly didn’t know where to start. There was dust on every surface, the floors were gritty, and I didn’t want to ruin anything new by using the wrong products. The cleaning team were absolute lifesavers! They turned chaos into calm in just a day. My kitchen looked like something from a showroom when they were done. Every corner was spotless, and the bi-fold doors were gleaming. I’m so glad I booked the clean before moving everything back in. Amazing service and worth every penny!”
