What is post-construction cleaning and why is it important in Nairobi?

Post-construction cleaning is a specialised deep-clean after building or renovation work, removing dust, debris, paint overspray, adhesive residue, and construction materials to make a space safe and ready for occupation.

Why It Matters in Nairobi

• Health hazards – Construction dust contains silica, cement, and plaster particles hazardous when inhaled. Professional cleaning eliminates these before occupants move in.
• Surface protection – Cement residue and paint splashes become harder to remove over time; prompt cleaning protects new tiles, windows, and fittings.
• Compliance – Many Nairobi developers require a professional clean certificate before property handover.
• First impressions – A pristine post-build finish creates a professional impression for tenants, buyers, or clients.

What Post-Construction Cleaning Includes

• HEPA-vacuum of all dust from floors, walls, ceilings, vents, and light fittings
• Cleaning and polishing all windows, glass partitions, and mirrors
• Removal of paint, adhesive, and grout haze from tiles
• Scrubbing and disinfection of all bathrooms and kitchens
• Floor scrubbing and polishing (tiles, concrete, hardwood)
• Wiping down all joinery, cabinets, and new fittings

Pricing Guide

Post-construction cleaning is priced by square metre — typically KSh 20–60/m². A 3-bedroom apartment (~120m²) costs KSh 8,000–15,000.
