Okay, so I needed to find someone to clean up after we finished renovating our kitchen. You know, get rid of all that dust, plaster, and general mess that builders leave behind. I started by, well, hitting up Google.

My search begins

I typed in "post construction cleaning companies near me" and, boom, a whole bunch of options popped up. I started clicking through the first few, just to get a feel for what was out there. I looked at a couple of the big national companies, and then I focused more on local ones, reading some reviews because, you know, you gotta see what other people are saying.

Honestly, at first, it was a bit overwhelming. So many choices! But I just kept going, making a list of the companies that seemed promising. I jotted down their names, phone numbers, and any notes about what stood out – like if they specifically mentioned post-construction cleaning or had really good reviews.

Narrowing down the options

After I had my list, I started digging a bit deeper. I went back to their websites and looked for more details. Things like:

• Did they list their services clearly? I wanted to be sure they actually did post-construction, not just regular house cleaning.
• Did they have any pictures or videos of their work? Always a good sign if they showed off what they could do.
• Did they look, you know, professional? Like a proper company, not just some random person with a mop.

Making some calls and asking many question

Once I had a shortlist of maybe five or six companies, I started calling them. This was the real test! I wanted to get a feel for how they operated and ask some important questions:

• "What's your experience with post-construction cleaning?" (I didn't want some newbie messing things up.)
• "Do you have insurance?" (Super important, just in case!)
• "What's included in your service?" (Did they do windows? Floors? Get into all those nooks and crannies?)
• "Can I get an estimate which is free?" (Need the cost.)

I took notes during each call, jotting down how they answered, how professional they sounded, and of course, the price they quoted.

Making final decision

After all the calls, it came down to comparing my notes. One company stood out. They answered all my questions clearly, seemed really experienced, and the price was fair. Plus, they just sounded like nice, reliable people. So, I booked them!

They came a few days later, did an amazing job, and the kitchen looked spotless. Finally No more dust bunnies!

So, yeah, that's how I found a post-construction cleaning company. It took a bit of effort, but it was definitely worth it to get the job done right.
