Remodel Cleanup in Stuart, FL
Your contractor swept up and hauled the debris out. That is not the same as clean.
Drywall dust is finer than household dust. It stays airborne for hours after the work stops, then settles into places a broom never goes. Inside upper cabinets. In the tracks of every window. On the top edge of door frames. In the return vent.
Remodel cleanup in Stuart is the last step of the project. It is also the step that decides whether the space actually feels finished.
A standard vacuum filter does not hold drywall dust. The fine particles pass through the filter and go straight back into the room through the exhaust. You vacuum, the air clouds, and two hours later everything has a film on it again.
Our teams run HEPA-filter vacuums. They trap the fine dust and allergens instead of redistributing them. On a remodel cleanup that is not a nice-to-have. It is the whole job.
We work top down for the same reason. Ceiling fans, light fixtures, and the tops of doors first. Floors last. Cleaning the floor before the high surfaces just means doing the floor twice.
Why household vacuums make this worse
What a remodel cleanup covers
HEPA vacuuming of floors, vents, and hard-to-reach areas
Dust removal from light fixtures, baseboards, trim, and high surfaces
Inside cabinets, drawers, and closets, where fine dust settles and hides
Countertops, shelving, hardware, and surfaces wiped and cleaned
Bathrooms and kitchens cleaned in detail, including sinks, tubs, toilets, and fixtures
Floors vacuumed and mopped, including construction residue
Final wipe-down and a walk of the space before we leave
Inside the cabinets is the part people forget to ask for. Contractors install uppers before the dust settles. If nobody opens them and cleans them out, you find it the first time you put dishes away.
Stuart projects we see most
Kitchen and bath remodels. The two rooms most often redone in Martin County homes, and the two that generate the most fine dust because of tile cutting and drywall work.
Storm repairs. After a hurricane season with damage, homes across Stuart, Rio, and Port Salerno go through drywall replacement and window work. That means dust, and it usually means the family has been living in the house the whole time.
Impact window installation. Very common here. It creates dust at every opening in the house and leaves residue on the new glass and in the new tracks.
Condo renovations. Buildings on Hutchinson Island and along the Jensen Beach waterfront often set rules for renovation work. Those can cover work hours, which entrance crews use, and which elevator. Tell us your building’s rules at the walkthrough and we will schedule around them.
Flooring replacement. Tile removal produces the most dust of any single job we clean up after.
Insurance, access, and paperwork
We are licensed, bonded, and insured, and we carry workers’ compensation on every employee.
If your condo association or property management company needs a Certificate of Insurance naming them as an additional insured, we can provide one on request. Ask for it when you book and we will get it over before the crew arrives.
Every cleaner is a W-2 employee of this branch, not a subcontractor pulled in for the job. That matters on a construction site where a lot of trades come and go.
You do not need to be there. For security we do not keep client keys, so give us a lockbox, gate code, or door code to use on the day.
When to schedule the cleanup
After the last trade is out, not before.
If painters, trim carpenters, or flooring crews are still coming back, you will pay for the cleanup twice. We would rather tell you to wait a week.
One exception. If you are living in the house during a long project, some people have us do an interim clean of the rooms that are finished so the family has somewhere to be. That is a different scope and we will quote it separately.
How we price it
We quote using an estimating tool that reads square footage, condition, and scope. On remodel work, condition is the biggest variable, so we come look.
You get an upfront number, not an hourly meter. If the job turns out to need significantly more time than we planned, we call you before we go past that number. You can approve more time or point us at the rooms that matter most.
We have been cleaning up after Martin County contractors since 1991. Our Treasure Coast branch holds a 5.0 star rating across 345 Google reviews. Our teams speak English and Spanish.
We cover Stuart, Palm City, Rio, Sewall’s Point, Jensen Beach, Hutchinson Island, Port Salerno, Hobe Sound, and Port St. Lucie.
What the walkthrough covers
We look at five things before we put a number on the job.
Which trades were in. Tile and drywall work generate far more fine dust than a cabinet swap or a paint refresh.
Whether the house was occupied. A family living through the project means dust has traveled well beyond the work zone.
Cabinet and closet interiors. New cabinetry almost always has dust inside. It is the most commonly skipped part of a cleanup.
HVAC. If the system ran during construction, dust went through the returns and settled everywhere. Have the filter changed before we come.
What the contractor left. Adhesive residue, paint drips, and stickers on new glass and appliances are all normal, and we would rather know they are there than find them.
If the project touched the whole house, we may recommend following the cleanup with a regular cleaning schedule for a month or two. Fine dust keeps working its way out of a house for weeks.
Commercial build-outs are handled through our commercial cleaning service, which can run nights and weekends.
