Builder broom-sweep or post-construction clean.

What post-construction cleaning includes.

Where the clean fits in the build schedule
The right moment is after the last trade leaves and before anyone moves in. Book it earlier and paint, trim or fixture work puts dust back into the air, and the clean has to happen twice.
After the last trade
Painting, trim and fixtures are done, so new dust has stopped coming.
Before move-in or opening
The space is cleared while it is still empty and easy to work.
Ahead of your handover date
Share the date on your quote request so the clean lands before it.

Why the order matters with construction dust
Fine dust is where a bad order shows. Wipe first and it streaks; mop before the high surfaces and the floor needs doing twice. The same four rules keep a post-construction clean from going in circles.
Top to bottom
High surfaces first, floors last, so nothing falls on a finished surface.
Dry before wet
Dusting and vacuuming come before wiping and mopping.
Edges first
Corners and edges are worked before open surfaces.
Checked against the written checklist
Every room is checked against the written checklist before we leave.
What you can add after a build
New glass and new carpet often need their own attention after a project. Both are priced per item and added to the written quote only when you ask.

Questions about post-construction cleaning
When should post-construction cleaning be scheduled?
Schedule 219 Cleaning Co. post-construction cleaning after the last trade has finished in the space.
