Post Construction Cleaning Services in Ras Al Khaimah

It is the specialist clean that takes a newly built, renovated or fitted-out property from builder-finished to ready to use: fine construction dust removed from every surface and from inside every unit, cement, plaster, paint, adhesive and grout haze lifted from floors, tiles, glass and fittings, protective film and stickers peeled and their adhesive removed, kitchens and bathrooms detailed, floors washed and machine-scrubbed where needed, and the packaging and light debris taken away. It is usually done once, after the last trade leaves and before the furniture arrives.

It is quoted per property after a site inspection; there is no fixed rate or price list. The quote depends on the floor area, the number of bathrooms and kitchens, the surfaces (natural stone takes longer than porcelain), how much residue the trades left and of what kind, which stages you need, outdoor areas and glass, access and working hours, and for projects the number of units. The written quote lists the rooms, the stages, the crew size and the days, and it is the figure you pay unless the scope changes.

Because the floor plan tells us almost nothing about the work. Grout that was wiped off while wet takes minutes to finish; grout that was left to cure in a textured tile takes hours per room. The same is true of paint masking, protective film and the amount of debris left behind. The inspection is a short visit, and it means the quote is right and nothing is added on the day.

A new apartment is usually one day for a small crew. A large villa with several bathrooms, a staircase and outdoor areas takes a full crew and one to two days. Commercial fit-outs are planned around the opening date and often run as two visits. The inspection fixes the crew size and the days, and they are written into the quote.

A deep clean is for a home that has been lived in: grease, soap scum, dust and grime from use. Post construction cleaning deals with building residue (cement, grout haze, plaster, paint, adhesive, film and fine mineral dust) that ordinary methods spread rather than remove, and it uses HEPA-filter vacuums and chemistry chosen for new, sometimes uncured surfaces. If your property has been occupied, book a deep clean; if the trades have just left, you are on the right page.

They are the three stages of post construction cleaning. The rough clean clears packaging, coverings and light debris while trades are still finishing. The detail clean is the full top-down clean of every surface, fitting and unit once the last trade has left. The final clean is a short return visit after snagging rectification or furniture delivery to lift the dust that has settled since. Homeowners usually book the detail clean; contractors and developers often book all three.

After the developer or contractor has finished rectifying the snag list, and before the furniture, curtains and appliances are delivered, so every surface is reachable and nothing new is being drilled or painted. If the furniture is already in, we work around it, but tell us at the inspection so the quote allows for it.

Yes, all of them, each with the method for that surface. Cement film and grout haze are lifted from porcelain and ceramic with an acidic descaler; paint spots and adhesive are softened and scraped; protective film is peeled and its baked-on adhesive removed from glass, frames, appliances and sanitaryware. Where a residue has permanently marked a surface, we tell you at the inspection rather than promise it away.

Not when it is done with the right chemistry and tools, which is the point of using a specialist. Acidic descalers are only used on acid-resistant porcelain and ceramic; marble, limestone, terrazzo and travertine are cleaned with a neutral product and mechanical action, because acid etches them. Glass is never scraped dry, and new fittings are wiped with colour-coded microfibre, not abrasive pads. Anything we find already damaged is photographed and reported before we start.

We bag and remove packaging, protective coverings and light debris as part of every clean. Rubble, tile offcuts, plasterboard, paint tins and other construction waste are the project’s responsibility: Barjeel, the Ras Al Khaimah green building regulations, requires construction waste on permitted projects to be segregated on site and taken to facilities designated by the RAK Waste Management Agency (regulation 304.01). If a site has been left with more than light debris, we quote its removal as a separate line.

Grilles, diffusers and the visible vents are cleaned as part of the detail clean. The ductwork behind them is a separate job: if the ducts were open or unprotected during the works, they hold construction dust and blow it back into the rooms for weeks. Book an AC duct cleaning alongside, ideally before the final clean.

Interior glass, frames, sills and tracks are always included, and exterior glass where it can be reached safely from the floor, a balcony or a terrace. Balconies, terraces, courtyards, car porches and external paving are swept and washed. High-level facade glass that needs access equipment is scoped separately at the inspection.

Yes. We work to your site programme, provide rough, detail and final cleans timed to handover or opening, keep the same crew on a multi-unit project, and issue written quotes and invoices itemised by unit and stage. Standing arrangements across projects are welcome.

Yes. The clean needs running water and power for the vacuums and floor machines. If the utilities will not be connected by your handover date, tell us at the inspection and we will plan the visit around it.

Fine construction dust stays in the air long after it is disturbed and settles slowly, and an AC system that ran during the works keeps releasing what is in the ducts. The detail clean removes what has settled; a final clean a few days later, after the AC has run and the furniture is in, catches the rest, and an AC duct clean stops the source. We can quote the two visits together.

All of Ras Al Khaimah: Khalifa bin Zayed City, Al Riffa, Al Dhait, Al Qusaidat, Seih Al Uraibi and the other villa districts; Al Marjan Island, Mina Al Arab, Al Hamra and Danah Bay on the coast; and the industrial and free-zone units at Al Hamra Industrial Area and RAKEZ.

Yes, and most clients do. A weekly, fortnightly or monthly plan from the same team keeps the property in the condition it was handed over in, and for a holiday home we can pair it with changeover cleans between guests.
