Sophie’s After Builders Cleaning Service Ferryhill – County Durham
After Builders Cleaning Case Study – Ferryhill, County Durham
Location: Ferryhill, County Durham
Property Type: 2-Bedroom Bungalow
Cleaning Duration: 1 Day (2-Person Team)
Date Completed: February 2025
Project Background
Mr. Hughes had recently completed a full renovation of his late parents’ bungalow in Ferryhill. The project included a full electrical rewire, plastering, new laminate flooring throughout, installation of a fitted kitchen, and bathroom refurbishment. The builders had left behind dust on nearly every surface, paint splatters on window frames and floors, and silicone marks around the kitchen and bathroom fixtures.
He needed the property professionally cleaned before listing it on the market for sale and contacted our team to carry out a comprehensive after builders clean.
Cleaning Overview
Our operatives arrived early to assess the work required and completed a room-by-room deep clean, ensuring every trace of post-construction residue was removed.

Customer Testimonial
“I couldn’t believe the difference. I was honestly overwhelmed by how much dust and mess the builders had left. The team arrived on time, got stuck in straight away, and left the place absolutely gleaming. You’d never know the house had been a building site just 24 hours earlier. Thanks again — brilliant service from start to finish.”
