Post-Construction Cleaning in Brooklyn, NY
We’ve worked in Brooklyn long enough to know that no two jobs are the same. A gut renovation on a Williamsburg storefront leaves behind a different kind of mess than a commercial build-out in Downtown Brooklyn.
Post-Construction Cleaning
Construction wraps up, and suddenly you’re staring at a space that looks nothing like the finished product you imagined. There’s drywall dust coating every horizontal surface, adhesive residue where the contractor pulled tape, paint overspray on the new hardwood, and a fine gray film on every window. This is where renovation projects actually end, and where Alayjiah Cleaning begins.
We’ve worked in Brooklyn long enough to know that no two jobs are the same. A gut renovation on a Williamsburg storefront leaves behind a different kind of mess than a commercial build-out in Downtown Brooklyn. Drywall dust settles into HVAC vents and baseboards in ways that a standard vacuum misses completely. Paint splatters on stone tile require a different chemistry than what you’d use on concrete. Our crews know the difference, and they come equipped for it.
What We Actually Do
The work starts from the top down. Ceilings, light fixtures, and vents get vacuumed with HEPA-filtered equipment before we touch a floor, because there’s no point cleaning surfaces that will just be re-coated with fallout from above. Walls get wiped. Windows, inside and out, get stripped of construction film, tape residue, and overspray until they’re clear again. Floors are treated based on material: Kärcher steam cleaners for tile, Tennant scrubbers for hard surfaces, and careful spot treatment for anything more sensitive.
Bathrooms and kitchens, which tend to collect the worst of the construction grime, get full sanitization with commercial-grade disinfectants, not consumer products diluted to half strength.
Exterior work runs alongside the interior job. Pressure washing removes concrete splatter and paint mist from facades, walkways, and entryways. We also handle debris removal entirely, sorting, hauling, and disposing of leftover materials in compliance with Brooklyn’s disposal requirements. That includes everything from broken drywall sections to scattered fasteners that someone inevitably leaves behind.
Scheduling Around Your Timeline
Most Brooklyn businesses can’t sit idle waiting for a cleaning crew to show up on their schedule. We work early mornings, evenings, and weekends, whatever keeps your move-in or soft-open on track. Our team coordinates directly with general contractors and project managers so the handoff from construction to cleaning doesn’t add delays. Once construction wraps structurally, we can typically mobilize within 24 to 48 hours.
Licensed, Insured, OSHA-Compliant
This matters more than most clients initially realize. Post-construction sites have genuine hazards such as silica dust, chemical residues, and sharp debris. Our team is trained in OSHA-compliant practices, wears appropriate PPE, and handles every material with the care that a high-stakes commercial environment demands.
If you just spent months and significant money on a renovation or new build, the last thing you need is a cleaning crew that damages your finishes or skips the hard-to-reach areas. We don’t work that way.

Incredible results!! I wish I would have taken before pictures. Very professional. Highly recommended!!Posted on Oluwafemi OgunsolaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My mom's home needed cleaning and I live out of town. My wife found James and his team based on the positive reviews she saw. She called other people, but James was so polite on the phone that she felt the reviews must be legit. I drove 2 hours to get to my mom's house for the 8 AM appointment. I got there at 7:30. They showed up at 7:53 AM. For me, coming from out of town, I appreciated that very much. He told me about a pricing adjustment to be made once he measured the whole area of tile that needed to be cleaned. Super reasonable and his team was great. They cleaned 2 floors, top to bottom, window sills and all. They asked me to check the work. I did and said it looked good. James checked and had them redo things I missed. I dont do reviews often, but this company definitely earned my gratitude and endorsement. I plan to use them for future cleaning needs. Thank you Alayjiah Cleaning Services. You took a huge burden off my chest and did an outstanding job. Thanks.Posted on Noel Reid-KillingsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

James and his crew were recommended to me by a fellow realtor who has used them multiple times and had been very happy with their service. I gave the info to my client, who booked them and I went to meet them at the house for the "pre-listing" cleaning. Their communication throughout the process was great, they were on time, everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Prices were fair and reasonable, plus they had a crew to send so it didn't take all day. I would 1000000% use them again!! 11/10.
