    Why post-construction cleaning is the best 'big ticket' vertical

    Post-construction (also called construction clean, final clean, or builder's clean) is unique in commercial cleaning - projects are short, prices are high, and buyers (general contractors and developers) actively need vendors on a near-constant basis as they rotate through projects. A single 20,000 sq ft commercial fit-out can produce a rough-clean, final-clean and touch-up cycle worth $15K-$45K of revenue inside a 4-6 week window. That's the kind of cash injection that funds equipment, payroll and a real growth engine for a cleaning company.

    How CleanReach books post-construction walkthroughs

    - We build a list of active GCs, developers, fit-out specialists and project managers in your service area. - We identify the decision-maker for cleaning at each - usually the project manager or superintendent. - We run cold email + LinkedIn outreach in your company's name with copy proven against GC inboxes. - When a GC has a job coming up, we book a walkthrough directly on your calendar with the PM responsible. You meet the PM on site, scope the rough/final, and quote.

    What general contractors actually buy on

    GCs don't care about your marketing. They care about three things, in order: 1. Will you show up on schedule? (Their punch list depends on it.) 2. Will the building pass the final walkthrough cleanly the first time? (No callbacks.) 3. Will you invoice cleanly and not chase the office for change orders? Win GC contracts by leading with crew size, equipment list, schedule reliability and references from other GCs - not pricing.

    Pricing post-construction work (the basics)

    Most US/UK/CA markets price rough clean at $0.10-$0.25/sq ft, final clean at $0.25-$0.55/sq ft, and touch-up at $0.10-$0.20/sq ft. Production rates run 200-500 sq ft/hr for final clean, much slower than general office. Margin target: 45-60% gross. Equipment and supplies eat more on post-construction than on recurring janitorial - bake in scrapers, ladders, abrasive pads, HEPA vacs and a larger chemical budget.

    Who CleanReach targets for post-construction cleaning leads

    We focus on the people who actually award cleaning work on commercial builds: general contractors, construction managers, project managers, developers, property owners preparing for tenant move-in, and fit-out specialists. These are high-intent buyers with real budgets and hard deadlines.

    post-construction cleaning — frequently asked questions

    How big are typical post-construction cleaning jobs?+

    Single jobs typically run $2,500-$25,000 for office fit-outs and tenant improvements, and $15,000-$80,000+ for ground-up commercial builds across rough/final/touch-up phases.

    Do I need different equipment for post-construction cleaning?+

    Yes. You'll need HEPA vacuums, ladders (8-12ft), scrapers, abrasive pads, drywall-dust removal supplies, and stronger PPE than recurring janitorial. Budget $3K-$5K above a normal janitorial starter kit.

    How do I get on a GC's vendor list?+

    Direct outreach to the project manager or super, a clean COI (general liability + workers' comp + auto), and references from other GCs. Most cleaners get on vendor lists through outbound - GCs rarely post RFPs publicly.

    How profitable is post-construction cleaning?+

    Gross margins typically run 45-60% on post-construction, with much higher single-job revenue than recurring janitorial. The trade-off is lumpy pipeline - you need consistent outbound to stay full.

    What is post-construction cleaning?+

    Post-construction cleaning is the detailed cleaning performed after a building or renovation project is complete. It includes rough clean, final clean and touch-up phases to prepare the space for occupancy or handover.

    How do I price post-construction cleaning?+

    Price by square footage and phase: rough clean $0.10-$0.25/sq ft, final clean $0.25-$0.55/sq ft, touch-up $0.10-$0.20/sq ft. Always visit the site before quoting to confirm debris level, access and schedule.
