Review the boundary between old rooms and new work
A downstairs refurbishment can leave a dusty threshold beside an otherwise unchanged room.
This Isleworth planning example centres on downstairs refurbishment. A downstairs refurbishment can leave a dusty threshold beside an otherwise unchanged room. The useful inspection route follows the refurbished downstairs rooms, with attention to new tile joints and transition strips.
Identify which marks sit on new tiles and which pre-date the project. Keep any care notes for new floor tiles available when discussing the visible marks.
Describe access through the occupied part of the home. Use the threshold as a review point when returning rooms to use.
Room-by-room brief
What each affected space needs you to explain
Bathroom
Describe sanitaryware, tiles and fittings, with fresh sealant and any glass work flagged separately.
Bedrooms
Check reachable frames and floors, and mention any dust inside storage rather than assuming it is included.
Living areas
Name exposed ledges and frame detail before furniture makes them harder to reach.
Planning beyond the trades
Plan the transition beyond the renovation
Work completed
Record the surfaces affected by the completed works.
Detailed clean
Follow the material-aware room priorities.
Final review
Explain where further advice may be necessary.
Plan the room’s next stage
Prepare for occupation without assuming a guarantee.
This is a visual explanation of stages, not photographic proof of one completed job.
A scoped quote
Quote the finishing detail, not just the floor area
From £29/ hour
Confirm the rate applicable to the enquiry; cleaning equipment and materials form part of the service.
Time can change with fittings, dust and access restrictions. Do not read the starting guide as including every additional service.
| Project | Pricing basis | What to describe |
|---|---|---|
| Smaller refurbishment | From £29/hour; scope confirmed | Finish readiness and access to details |
| Kitchen or bathroom work | From £29/hour; scope confirmed | New materials and safe access |
| Whole-property renovation | Quote after the room scope is reviewed | Room schedule and surface-care needs |
| Commercial refurbishment enquiry | Confirm suitability before pricing | Building restrictions and release dates |
Based on Alesta’s published after builders cleaning rate. Building waste removal is quoted separately.
Start with the work
Choose the nearest project type
Choose the relevant work type, then provide its actual condition when enquiring; the interactive options are planning prompts only.
Full renovation
Explain where the work stopped and where deposits remain; the two boundaries may not be identical.
Beyond the work zone
Check the spaces between the finished rooms
Do not let the room name decide the dust boundary.
Protected furniture does not mean every nearby surface stayed untouched. Examine exposed ledges and passages before ruling a room out.
The brief should describe reach and material as well as dust level, allowing suitable removal methods to be discussed.
If more dusty work is planned, discuss a different order before fixing the appointment.
The dust route
Look beyond the centre of the renovated floor
A property inspection may reveal different priorities from those pictured here.
Ledges & surfaces
List reachable horizontal details individually where fitted furniture creates extra ledges.
Frames & edges
Inspect the line where floors meet skirting and where door frames meet the wall.
Fittings & fixtures
Include external detail on agreed fixtures without assuming specialist treatment.
Floors & adjoining rooms
The exit route may need attention even where no building work occurred.
Different issues / different scope
A surface mark is not always a dust problem
| Post-build issue | Example | How it is approached |
|---|---|---|
| Fine dust | Loose surface dust beside fitted units | Plan this around reachable areas and their finish. |
| Loose cleaning remnants | Unbonded residue in accessible cleaning areas | Confirm inclusion instead of assuming site clearance. |
| Adhesive or labels | A bonded patch on new trim | Identify both coating and deposit; treatment needs confirmation. |
| Paint, plaster or cement spots | Hardened material at an installation edge | No promise is made that every bonded mark will lift. |
| Protective film | A manufacturer’s film on new cabinetry | Ask the installer and Alesta before treating this as waste. |
Two separate jobs
Cleaning and clearance have different starting points
Fine dust and reachable edges
A practical cleaning scope describes what can be reached and treated, not what must be carried away.
Materials requiring collection
Construction offcuts or large packaging can block the work route; ask about collection before treating the room as accessible.
Discuss building waste disposal ↗Different project briefs
Isleworth: choose the relevant project detail
A flat between project stages
Note deposits beyond the renovated room before calling the property ready for occupation.
A refitted kitchen
External units and surrounding floor edges can need attention after installation.
A renovated bathroom
Explain which new materials permit cleaning and which still need time.
The whole-home room schedule
Group the agreed rooms by readiness, not only by floor level.
Rental rooms following renovation
Tenant turnover does not automatically turn this into an end-of-tenancy checklist.
Enquiring about fit-out cleaning
Ask whether the particular fit-out can be accommodated rather than assuming a contractor agreement.
A useful distinction
Separate building completion from cleaning readiness
Builder stage
Close the dusty work
- Release the agreed rooms from further building work.
- Arrange for materials to be cleared from accessible surfaces.
- Ask the installer when new finishes permit cleaning.
Cleaning stage
Set out the surface priorities
- Give the team a clear room list and entry arrangement.
- Keep care notes ready for the materials installed.
- Discuss the completed cleaning against the original brief.
Protect the new finish
Let the surface guide the cleaning decision
Illustrative surface review.
Protecting the finish can mean leaving a difficult mark for assessment.
Tell Alesta what the installer used and provide the available care notes. Scraping or strong products may be unsuitable even when a deposit is obvious.
Paint & sealants
Wet or uncured finishes need time under the relevant manufacturer guidance.
Stone, timber & tiles
Name the actual material; a stone-effect surface is not necessarily stone.
Metal, glass & cabinetry
External cabinet finishes need identification before adhesive is treated.
At a glance
Scope, readiness and price in brief
- Where does the price discussion start?
- £29/hour is the advertised starting point. Explain the surfaces, dust and access so the required work can be assessed.
- Where does the finishing clean focus?
- Agreed work can cover accessible fittings, edges, ledges and suitable flooring, with kitchen or bathroom detail specified where relevant.
- Can cleaning follow straight after painting?
- Use the end of dusty work as the planning point, subject to access and the readiness of new surfaces.
- What happens with paint splashes?
- The underlying coating sets the limit. Any difficult deposit should be flagged before cleaning is agreed.
- Is waste collection included automatically?
- No. Describe timber, boards and packaging separately so collection can be considered independently.
- Can newly fitted kitchens be included?
- Explain what was fitted and which external surfaces need attention; the materials and condition set the approach.
- Does a small paint project count?
- Describe ledges, frames and floor deposits after decorating, with any bonded marks assessed separately.
- Does a smaller flat always take less time?
- Detailed edges or difficult access can matter as much as floor area, so duration needs a scope review.
- What should I say about window work?
- Discuss internal and external requirements distinctly. Building marks require assessment before any treatment promise.
- How should the access route be prepared?
- Make room edges reachable by clearing tools and loose materials before the cleaning visit.
Who is planning the handover?
Who can release the rooms for cleaning?
Homeowners
List the rooms being returned to use and who can explain the newly installed surfaces.
Landlords & property managers
Provide a clear point of contact for the post-work scope and keep any unrelated inspection duties separate.
Builders & contractors
Share the practical site details so availability and coordination can be discussed for that particular enquiry.
Glass after renovation
Glass needs its own access and residue notes
Tell Alesta where the glass is and how it can be reached; additional window work requires confirmation.
Explain any plaster or paint spots so the scope reflects their condition, not just the glass area.
Plan separate window cleaning ↗Service-area planning

Questions about planning the Isleworth clean
Which details matter after downstairs refurbishment?
Start with what is still present: loose dust, fitting marks or materials awaiting collection. These are different questions and should not be combined into an assumed package. A downstairs refurbishment can leave a dusty threshold beside an otherwise unchanged room.
What access note should accompany my enquiry?
Explain any shared access requirements directly. A neighbourhood name cannot establish the practical route inside an individual building. Describe access through the occupied part of the home.
Can cleaning correct damage to a finish?
Cleaning is not a repair for damaged tiles or other finishes. Point out existing chips and scratches before discussing loose dust or bonded residue. The appropriate cleaning method depends on the actual material and cannot promise to remove a defect.
Should I include the space beyond the work area?
Ask about adjoining areas where the condition warrants it. Avoid extending the brief to unrelated household tasks without identifying them separately. Here, inspect the refurbished downstairs rooms.
Is £29/hour a complete project price?
Published pricing begins from £29 per hour. Cleaning supplies and equipment are included, but the property scope and any extras still require agreement.
Can another trade visit follow the clean?
Tell Alesta which trades are returning and what they will do. Dust-producing work after a clean may change the sensible sequence; do not assume later deposits are included in the visit.
Can building boards remain beside the room?
Ask specifically about building-waste removal where boards or rubble remain. The finishing service addresses the agreed cleaning detail.
Are windows automatically part of the room clean?
Extra work must be named before the visit. A general room brief does not automatically include carpet treatment or every internal and external glass surface.
How should drying guidance affect my schedule?
Allow the scope to be confirmed before relying on a handover time. New finishes must also meet their own care requirements. Use the threshold as a review point when returning rooms to use.
Can further treatment be needed after dust removal?
Not every fitting mark is a cleaning task. If removal risks the coating, explain the limitation and consider the appropriate separate advice.
