What is included
Builders' dust is not household dust. It is fine, alkaline and abrasive, it settles for days after the trades leave, and it scratches glass and stone if it is wiped dry. We remove it in the right order, with vacuum extraction first and wet cleaning second, and we treat cement, grout and paint residue with the correct remover for each surface.
- HEPA vacuum extraction of dust from ceilings, walls, ledges, cupboards and AC grilles
- Cement film and grout haze removed from tiles and stone
- Paint splashes, silicone and adhesive lifted from glass, frames and floors
- Protective film and stickers removed from windows, appliances and sanitaryware
- Window glass, frames and tracks cleaned without scratching
- Inside all joinery, wardrobes and kitchen units
- Floors machine scrubbed, with stone and timber treated correctly
- A second dusting visit can be included once the air has settled
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Site visit and written quotation. A supervisor visits, measures and records every room, surface and extra. The written quotation that follows sets out the scope, with no hourly meter and nothing added on the day.
- Protect and prepare. Lifts, floors and furniture are protected and delicate finishes are logged on a surface register before any product is opened.
- Dry before wet, top before bottom. Dust is lifted with HEPA filtered vacuums from ceilings and fittings downwards. Each zone is then wet cleaned with chemistry matched to its finish.
- Detail work and floors. Tracks, switches, skirtings, handles and glass are finished by hand. Floors are machine scrubbed last so nothing is walked back in.
- Inspection and report. The supervisor signs all fourteen checks, photographs the result and sends you the report within the hour.

Post Construction Cleaning in Khalifa City: what we plan for
Khalifa City is mostly large private villas built plot by plot, many of them extended over the years with a majlis, staff quarters or a second house on the same land. Khalifa City A is the established part, with apartment developments such as Al Rayyana and Etihad Plaza. Khalifa City B, now also called Shakhbout City, is newer and lower density, and Al Merief is a district of private villa plots.
Open plots and building sites between the homes keep sand and cement dust in the air, and it settles in courtyards, on roof terraces and inside AC return grilles. Roof water tanks are exposed to full sun, and the hard desalinated supply scales up heaters and mixer taps quickly. A large family villa here often has two kitchens, a majlis with heavy curtains and fitted carpet, and staff quarters. We plan the visit room by room, wash curtains and upholstery on site where the fabric allows, and vacuum sand from courtyards and roof terraces before any wet cleaning.
Most villas are on open streets, so the crew parks at the gate and works with the owner or the house staff. Apartment buildings ask for a permit and a lift booking. Any outside work that may need the community or municipality to agree is identified at the site visit.

Who provides post construction cleaning in Khalifa City?

How long does post construction cleaning take?
Typically 1 to 3 days depending on size and how much residue the trades have left. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Does dust come back after the clean?
Fine dust keeps settling for a few days as the AC runs. We clean AC grilles during the visit and can schedule a short follow up dusting. For heavy dust we recommend AC duct cleaning before you move in.
Why can a normal cleaning company not do post construction cleaning?
Construction dust contains cement and gypsum fines that scratch glass and etch stone when wiped. It needs vacuum extraction, the right acid or alkaline removers for each residue and trained operators. Household methods spread the dust and damage new finishes.
When should post construction cleaning be booked?
After all trades have finished, snagging is complete and the AC has been commissioned. If trades return after the clean, dust returns with them.
How do your crews get access to Khalifa City?
Most villas are on open streets, so the crew parks at the gate and works with the owner or the house staff. Apartment buildings ask for a permit and a lift booking. Any outside work that may need the community or municipality to agree is identified at the site visit.
Can you work on a villa compound with several houses on one plot?
Yes. Each house and the shared areas are scoped separately at the site visit, then cleaned or serviced in the order you choose, over one or several days.
How do I choose a company for post construction cleaning in Khalifa City?
