Moving into a newly constructed apartment in Pune is exciting, but every new homeowner quickly discovers the same unpleasant reality: the flat is covered in construction residue. Cement dust coats every surface. Paint splatters mark the floors and window frames. Adhesive residue from protective films clings stubbornly to countertops and fittings. Plaster dust has settled inside every cabinet and drawer. The flat may be new, but it is far from clean. Housy's post construction cleaning service, starting at four hundred and ninety-nine rupees, transforms your new Pune apartment from a construction site to a liveable home.
Pune's real estate market delivers thousands of new apartments every year. Major developments in Wakad, Hinjewadi, Tathawade, Baner, Balewadi, Undri, Kharadi, and Wagholi continuously add to the housing stock. While builders sometimes offer basic cleaning before handover, this cleaning is typically superficial and leaves significant construction residue behind. Families who move in without professional post-construction cleaning find themselves dealing with construction dust for weeks, as it keeps emerging from crevices, ducts, and hidden surfaces.
Post construction cleaning is fundamentally different from regular cleaning. It requires specific knowledge, tools, and products. Cement dust, for example, is alkaline and cannot be effectively removed with regular cleaning solutions. It requires acidic or specialised alkaline-neutralising agents applied correctly to dissolve the cement film without damaging the underlying surface. Paint splatters on tiles or stone need careful scraping with the right tools to avoid scratching. Adhesive residue from protective films requires solvent-based cleaners that break down the adhesive without affecting finishes.
Our post construction cleaning professionals are trained specifically for these challenges. The service follows a structured top-down process. Ceiling cleaning comes first, removing plaster dust and cobwebs from ceiling surfaces, light fixtures, and fan canopies. Wall cleaning follows, addressing paint splatters, plaster marks, and general dust accumulation. Window cleaning is thorough, covering glass panes, frames, tracks, and sills, removing the cement dust and paint that inevitably accumulates during construction.
Kitchen cleaning in a new apartment is particularly intensive. Modular kitchen cabinets arrive sealed but still accumulate dust inside and outside during the construction process. Every shelf, drawer, and cabinet needs to be wiped clean before you can place your utensils and provisions inside. The kitchen platform, sink, and fixtures need degreasing and polishing to remove construction grime and handling marks.
Bathrooms in newly constructed Pune apartments often have the heaviest construction residue. Tile grout is frequently stained with cement and plaster. Fixtures have adhesive marks from protective covers. Toilet bowls may have plaster or paint inside them. Glass shower partitions are usually marked with construction dust and hand prints. Our professionals address all of these issues, leaving bathrooms genuinely ready for use.
Floor cleaning is the most visible component of post construction cleaning. Pune apartments typically have vitrified tiles, marble, or granite flooring, all of which develop a hazy film from cement dust during construction. This film does not come off with regular mopping. Professional post construction floor cleaning involves multiple passes with appropriate cleaning solutions, followed by final mopping that reveals the true appearance of your new floors. Many customers are genuinely surprised at how different their floors look after proper post construction cleaning.
Balconies and utility areas are often the most neglected during builder cleaning. Construction debris, cement bags remnants, wire offcuts, and general rubbish may still be present. Our team clears this debris and cleans these spaces to the same standard as the interior rooms.
The duration of post construction cleaning depends on apartment size and the extent of construction residue. A standard 2BHK typically takes four to six hours. A 3BHK may require six to eight hours. Larger apartments or those with particularly heavy construction residue may need a second session. We assess the scope during the initial visit and advise if additional time is needed.
Timing your post construction cleaning is important. We recommend scheduling it after all furniture delivery and assembly is complete but before you begin unpacking boxes and setting up your home. This way, every surface is accessible for cleaning, and you start unpacking into a genuinely clean space.
