What Is Post-Renovation Cleaning?
Post-renovation cleaning (also called post-construction cleaning) is a specialized deep clean performed after any renovation or construction project — a kitchen reno, bathroom remodel, basement finishing, or full home renovation. It's different from a standard clean because construction leaves behind fine dust, debris, drywall residue, and sometimes chemical odours that require specific techniques and equipment to remove properly.
If you've just completed a renovation in Toronto, trying to clean it yourself is exhausting and often ineffective. The fine drywall dust that settles everywhere requires microfiber cloths and HEPA vacuums — not regular household supplies.
What's Included in a Post-Renovation Clean
A professional post-renovation clean in Toronto covers far more than a standard clean:
- HEPA vacuum all surfaces including walls, ceilings, vents, and light fixtures
- Wipe all surfaces including inside cabinets, drawers, and closets
- Clean all windows including sills and tracks
- Scrub bathrooms including grout, tiles, fixtures, and mirrors
- Deep clean kitchen including appliances, range hood, and backsplash
- Mop all hard floors and vacuum carpets
- Remove construction debris and stickers from new fixtures
- Polish new hardware and fixtures
- Final walkthrough to ensure no dust or debris remains
This typically takes 2–3x longer than a standard clean of the same space because of the volume of fine dust and debris involved.
Post-Renovation Cleaning Pricing Toronto (2026)
Post-construction cleaning is priced at a premium over standard cleaning because of the extra time and labour involved:
- 1 bed / 1 bath: $280–$380
- 2 bed / 2 bath: $380–$520
- 3 bed / 2 bath: $520–$700
- 4 bed / 3 bath: $700–$950
- Large custom homes: $950+
Pricing varies based on scope of renovation, square footage, and condition. A gut renovation of a full home will take longer than a single bathroom remodel.

When to Schedule Your Post-Renovation Clean
Timing matters. Book your post-renovation clean for after all trades are done and the site is clear of tools and materials — but before you move furniture back in. This gives your cleaners full access to every surface and maximizes efficiency.
For major renovations, some Toronto homeowners book two cleans: a "rough clean" midway through for livability, and a final detail clean once construction is complete.
