Post-construction cleaning in Tallinn and Harju County

Kontorikoristus 24 performs post-construction cleaning in office, commercial, industrial and warehouse spaces across Tallinn and Harju County, after the last builder has left and before the space is put into use. Construction dust behaves differently than ordinary dirt: plasterboard and concrete dust is so fine that a dry brush lifts it back into the air and only a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter takes it into the bag.

Therefore, post-construction cleaning takes place in three stages: first coarse debris and packaging material, then vacuuming all surfaces with a HEPA filter, and finally wet cleaning with glass and floor finishing. The price of the quote comes from the area measured on site by the site supervisor and the scope of the repair, and the inspection of the site after the repair is free for the client. In 2025, there were 46 post-construction cleanings and their total area was 22,218 square meters.

Post-construction cleaning for four types of premises

Office space, commercial space, industrial and warehouse space, and new development will receive a written summary of the work at the end of the post-construction cleaning. Of the 352 post-construction cleanings carried out from 2009 to the end of 2025, 188 were carried out in office premises, 64 in commercial premises, 57 in industrial and warehouse premises and 43 in new developments.

  • The cleaner wipes the glass partition of the open office with a cloth, the round traces of the installers' suction lifts are removed from the glass as part of the post-construction cleaning price.

    Post-Construction Cleaning of Office Space

    Post-construction cleaning of the office space prepares the new or renovated office for occupancy by removing the protective film from the glass and floor, silicone residues from the frames and paint splashes from the washroom walls.

    At the end of the work, Kontorikoristus 24 will send the client a written summary of the scope of the work performed and the defects found, such as scratched window glass, about which the main contractor still needs to communicate with the developer.

  • The cleaner washes the floor of the empty store between the shelves with a flat mop, the grooves of the price tag strips are cleaned of construction dust before the tags are installed.

    Post-construction cleaning of commercial premises

    Post-construction cleaning of the retail space focuses on display windows and entrance glass, which is the client's first contact with the store, and on cleaning shelving systems and counters from construction dust before the installation of goods.

    Kontorikoristus 24 soaks the calcium residues left from the construction dust on the shop windows before washing them with an acidic agent, because the usual window and glass cleaner does not dissolve them.

  • The cleaner pushes the sweeper between the pallets on the dusty concrete floor of the warehouse, the coarse concrete dust is caught by the pre-separator before the HEPA filter.

    Industrial and Warehouse Post-Construction Cleaning

    Post-construction cleaning of industrial and warehouse space covers large concrete floors, where the amount of construction dust is many times higher than in office space, and uses a stronger than usual industrial vacuum cleaner with machine floor washing.

    Since the warehouse entrances have high traffic from the first day of use, Kontorikoristus 24 installs an entrance mat in front of the entrance, which is changed according to the schedule, and the construction dust is not transferred to the new building a second time.

  • The cleaner vacuums the dust from the wood-patterned floor of the new apartment next to paint pots and cover paper, the touch surfaces of the new apartment also include window handles and the handle of the balcony door.

    Post-construction cleaning of new developments

    Post-construction cleaning for new developments services the entire new building prior to the first tenant, including all common areas, and concludes with a disinfectant finish on touch surfaces, door handles and elevator buttons prior to handover.

    Kontorikoristus 24 makes the finishing touches with a vacuum cleaner with an H13 HEPA filter, whose 3-meter extension arm also reaches the tops of lights and ventilation grilles, where the finest plasterboard dust remains.

How Long Does Post-Construction Cleaning Take?

Post-construction cleaning of 350 square meters of new office space takes 1.5 working days for three cleaners: coarse debris and protective film in the first half of the day, HEPA vacuuming and wet cleaning with glass in the second half.

In the final finishing, the tops of the lights and ventilation grilles are vacuumed with a 3-meter extension wand of a vacuum cleaner with an H13 HEPA filter, the touch surfaces are disinfected last, and the site supervisor notes every found defect on the floor plan in the work summary.

Post-construction cleaning of an 800 square meter warehouse with an industrial vacuum cleaner and machine washing takes 1 working day for two cleaners, as the concrete floor area is covered faster with a larger machine than the corridors of the office.

The final washing of the shop windows of 40 square meters of commercial space takes 2 hours, because the calcium residues of the construction dust are softened with an acidic agent before washing. The average area of ​​the site after construction in 2025 was 483 square meters.

On the sleeve of the cleaner with the logo mark on the post-construction site in front of the vacuum cleaner and buckets, the site supervisor checks each room before handing over.
The cleaner pulls the blue protective film from the window of the new business premises, there are flattened cardboard and plastic rolls by the wall, and the limestone building and glass facade of the Rotermann quarter can be seen from the window, the unplastered concrete walls are only vacuumed and not wet washed.

How the service works

Three stages from rough debris to finished surface.

  1. 1. Coarse Debris and Packaging Material

    In the first stage, construction waste, packaging cardboard and protective film are removed: this is the part of the work with the largest volume and the least dust. At this stage, the time for taking out the construction waste container is also calculated.

  2. 2. HEPA vacuuming of all surfaces

    In the second stage, plaster and concrete dust is sucked from lights, ventilation grills, window sills, walls and floors with a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter, also from places where the dust is not visible to the naked eye.

  3. 3. Wet cleaning and finishing

    In the last step, the touch surfaces are disinfected and the glass and floor are washed ready for handover.

How to Choose the Scope of post-construction cleaning

The scope is determined by the volume of the repair and the condition of the area: new or renovated.

Light finishing clean after renovation

After painting and repairs with minor corrections, a lighter cleaning is sufficient: wiping the areas and finishing the glass, without heavy vacuuming.

Complete Post-Construction Cleaning After Plasterboard Works

After a repair involving plasterboard work and wall demolition, a three-stage full cleaning is necessary, as fine dust even gets into closed cupboards and behind sockets.

Pre-Handover Cleaning for New Development

In addition to a complete cleaning, a new building for sale or rent receives a disinfectant finish on the touch surfaces, because the first impression directly affects the tenant's decision.

Frequently asked questions

Why is a standard vacuum unsuitable for construction dust?

A regular vacuum cleaner does not adequately filter fine drywall and concrete dust and blows some of it back into the air. A vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter captures fine dust, which is especially important in an office space with closed ventilation.

What does the written work summary include?

In the summary of work, the extent of the work carried out and every defect found during the cleaning, such as a scratched window glass or paint splatter, is marked on the floor plan exactly where it is located. the site supervisor sends a summary to the client at the end of the work, so that the main contractor can correct the defects before moving in. In the 2025 work summaries, 601 construction defects were noted on the floor plan.

Who removes construction waste from the site?

The construction waste container is a separate order, the delivery time of which we set already at the first stage of cleaning. Packaging cardboard and protective film go in this container, fine construction dust and normal ice go with construction waste, not in the waste room of the house.

Do you remove protective film and tape residue?

Yes, removing the protective film from the glass, floor and equipment is part of the post-construction cleaning. Tape residues and silicone residues from the frames are cleaned with a separate tool that does not damage the base material.

Do you clean large industrial and warehouse buildings?

Yes, we use a stronger than usual industrial vacuum cleaner and machine floor cleaning on industrial and warehouse floors, as the concrete floor area and the amount of construction dust are many times greater than on the office floor.

When should post-construction cleaning be booked before a move?

There are 5 working days from the start of the contract to the first cleaning visit, so plan the post-construction cleaning a week before the move-in date.

How much does post-construction cleaning cost?

Post-construction cleaning starts at 2.60 euros per square meter. Separately ordered works are added to the final price: window cleaning from 1.20 euros and protective film removal from 0.50 euros per square meter.

Which areas do you serve for post-construction cleaning?

We do post-construction cleaning in Ülemiste and central Tallinn office spaces in Tallinn, in cooperative buildings in Mustamäe and Lasnamäe, and in Harju County in Rae Parish, Maardu, Viimsi, Keila and Saue. Tallinn sites are free of charge, and Harju County sites cost 0.70 euros per kilometer.
