What Contractors and Homeowners in LIC Are Saying

[Placeholder]

"We finished a full gut renovation on a condo in Hunters Point and needed the place cleaned before the client walkthrough the next morning. These guys came in at 7am and made it spotless. Client was blown away."

— Danny F., General Contractor, Long Island City

"Drywall dust was everywhere. I mean everywhere. In the cabinets, on the windows, inside the closets. They got all of it. Looked brand new."

— Miriam S., Homeowner, LIC

"I've used three different post-construction cleaning crews in Queens over the years. This team is the only one I call now."

— Roberto A., Property Developer, Long Island City

Construction is Done. Now What?

The workers are gone. The renovation looks great. But the space is a disaster.

There's a fine layer of drywall dust on every single surface. Paint drips on the floors. Sticker residue on the new windows. Chunks of grout in the bathroom. Sawdust in the corners. Debris tracked all over from workers going in and out for weeks.
You or your contractor can try to tackle it. But post-construction dust is different from regular dust. It gets into everything. HVAC vents. Light fixtures. The inside of cabinets. Behind the baseboards. If you just wipe down surfaces, you're going to be sneezing it up for months.

Post-Construction Cleaning Done Right in Long Island City

We are a local cleaning service based at 5-51 47th Ave right here in LIC. Post-construction cleaning is one of our most requested services, especially with all the renovation and development happening across Long Island City right now.
Our post-construction cleaning process goes in phases. First pass handles the heavy debris and bulk cleanup. Second pass handles all the fine dust — surfaces, vents, fixtures, windows, cabinets, floors. Third pass is the detail work — everything you'd see during a walkthrough. We don't rush it.
We bring the right equipment too. Industrial vacuums with HEPA filters, microfiber systems for dust capture, commercial-grade cleaning products. Regular mop and bucket doesn't cut it after a construction job. We know that.
Call us at (212) 812-9420 and tell us what the job was. We'll give you a straight quote and a timeline.

What Happens After a Real Post-Construction Clean

A property manager in Court Square called us last fall. She had a two-bedroom condo that had just finished a complete kitchen and bathroom renovation. New tenant was moving in four days later. The contractor had done a rough sweep but the place was still covered in fine dust, the new floors had paint and adhesive on them, and the windows were filthy.
We went in, did a full post-construction cleaning, and she texted us two days after the tenant moved in. Said the tenant called specifically to say how clean the apartment was when they arrived. That's a good way to start a tenancy.

Our Full Range of Cleaning Services in Long Island City, NY

Post-construction cleaning is our specialty, but we offer a full menu of cleaning services across LIC and western Queens. Here's what we do:

Post-Construction Cleaning — Long Island City, NY

Our flagship service for renovation and construction cleanup. We handle residential apartments, condos, townhomes, and small commercial spaces across Long Island City. Three-phase cleaning process covers heavy debris, fine construction dust, and final detail cleaning. We coordinate with contractors and property managers and can work around occupancy timelines.

Deep Cleaning Service

When a space needs a real reset — not just a surface wipe — our deep cleaning service covers it all. Baseboards, inside appliances, grout lines, cabinet interiors, vents, and every surface that gets skipped during regular cleaning. Often paired with post-construction cleaning for newly renovated apartments in LIC that need a full detail before move-in.

Move In Cleaning

Moving into a newly renovated apartment in Long Island City? Even after a contractor clean, there's usually still dust and residue you don't want to bring your furniture into. Our move in cleaning service goes over everything one more time so the space is genuinely ready for you to live in. A lot of our LIC clients do a post-construction clean followed by a move in clean for total peace of mind.

Move Out Cleaning

If a renovation project is wrapping up at the same time a tenant is leaving, we handle both. Our move out cleaning service is built to satisfy landlord inspections and help renters get their deposits back. We cover the kitchen, bathrooms, closets, appliances, and floors in detail — all the spots that matter for the final walkthrough.

Apartment Cleaning

Standard apartment cleaning for LIC residents on a regular schedule or one-time basis. Full clean of kitchen, bathrooms, living areas, and bedrooms. Great for keeping up with maintenance between bigger projects, or for tenants whose landlord is finishing up renovation work in the building.

Spring Cleaning

Every spring, Long Island City apartments need a real clean after the long winter. Salt, grime, and dust tracked in from the streets all season. Our spring cleaning service is a thorough top-to-bottom reset — think of it like a mini deep clean. Popular with homeowners and renters all over LIC starting in late March.

House Cleaning

We clean houses and townhomes throughout Long Island City and the surrounding Queens neighborhoods. Same careful process as our apartment cleaning, just adapted to more space. Regular house cleaning schedules available weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly.

Maid Service

Recurring maid service for LIC residents who want the same cleaner on a consistent schedule. Weekly or bi-weekly is most common. Great for busy professionals, families, and anyone who just finished a renovation and wants to keep the new space looking good. No contracts. Cancel or pause anytime.

Frequently Asked Questions — Post-Construction Cleaning in Long Island City, NY

[Placeholder]

  • Can you do post-construction cleaning the same day a renovation finishes in Long Island City?

    We can usually get on site within 24–48 hours of a job finishing, and sometimes same day if we have crew availability. Being based locally in LIC is a real advantage here — we're not coordinating a long trip. If you know your renovation end date in advance, it's always better to book us ahead of time so we can guarantee the slot, especially during busy seasons like spring and fall when renovation activity in Queens is high.

  • How much does post-construction cleaning cost in Long Island City compared to other parts of NYC?

    We're generally priced better than Manhattan-based crews because we're local and don't carry the same overhead. A typical post-construction clean for a 1–2 bedroom apartment in LIC starts around $299–$379 depending on scope. Large gut renovations or multi-room projects get a custom quote. Call us at (212) 812-9420 and describe the job — we'll give you a real number, not a vague range.

  • Do you work directly with contractors doing renovations in Long Island City?

    Yes, a lot of our business comes from referrals from general contractors and project managers working in LIC and western Queens. We can coordinate directly with the GC, work around the construction schedule, and do final cleaning before the client walkthrough. If you're a contractor looking for a reliable post-construction cleaning partner in Long Island City, call us and let's talk.

  • Will post-construction cleaning remove all the drywall dust from my Long Island City apartment?

    Yes, if the job is done right. Drywall dust is the number one complaint we hear after renovations in LIC — it settles on everything and regular cleaning doesn't fully remove it. We use HEPA-filter vacuums and a multi-pass microfiber system that captures the fine particles instead of just moving them around. After we're done, you should not be seeing or sneezing dust days later.

  • Do I need a post-construction clean even if the contractor did a sweep before leaving?

    Almost always, yes. Contractor sweeps are typically broom and basic wipe-down. They're not designed to remove fine construction dust from surfaces, vents, fixtures, inside cabinets, or behind new baseboards. In Long Island City apartments especially — where units tend to be smaller and dust has less room to spread out — a contractor sweep is just not enough before a client walkthrough or move-in. Our post-construction cleaning goes several layers deeper than that.

  • How close are you to job sites in Long Island City?

    We're based at 5-51 47th Ave in Long Island City, which puts us just minutes from most job sites in LIC — Hunters Point, Court Square, Dutch Kills, the Vernon Blvd corridor. We're not driving in from another borough, so we can respond quickly and we know the neighborhood's building stock well.

  • Do LIC buildings have any rules that affect post-construction cleaning crews?

    Yes, and this trips up outside crews all the time. A lot of the newer high-rises near the East River and around Queens Plaza have strict rules about service elevator booking windows, contractor hours (usually 8am–5pm weekdays), and COI requirements for vendors. We're familiar with how buildings in Long Island City operate and we handle the logistics so the property manager doesn't have to babysit us.

  • How long does post-construction cleaning take for a Long Island City apartment?

    For a standard 1–2 bedroom renovation in LIC, we typically need 4–8 hours depending on the scope of work and how much debris was left behind. A full gut renovation takes longer than a single bathroom remodel. We will always give you a realistic time estimate when we quote the job — we don't rush through it just to get done fast.

  • What's the difference between post-construction cleaning and a regular deep cleaning service?

    Post-construction cleaning deals with construction-specific debris — drywall dust, joint compound residue, paint overspray, adhesive, caulk smears, saw dust, and protective film on new windows and fixtures. Regular deep cleaning service handles grime, grease, mildew, and general buildup. For heavily renovated spaces in Long Island City, we often recommend doing a post-construction clean first, then a deep cleaning service right after to finish the job completely.

  • Does the weather in New York City affect post-construction cleaning timelines?

    It can. In winter months, construction dust mixes with salt and moisture that gets tracked through the building, which makes floor cleaning more involved. Summer humidity in LIC can cause drywall dust to re-adhere to surfaces if it isn't removed quickly after the job wraps. We adjust our process based on conditions so you're not dealing with problems weeks later.
