New builds and resale homes need genuinely different attention when it comes to move-in cleaning, given how differently they’ve been used.
New builds
Construction dust, fine and pervasive, is the main concern, settling into vents, cupboards and surfaces throughout, even in a home that’s never been lived in.
Resale homes
Previous occupant residue, inside appliances, cupboards, bathrooms, is the main focus, along with general wear from years of use.
What stays the same
Both benefit from the same thorough scope, cupboards, appliances, windows and bathrooms, cleaned before you move in. See our move-in cleaning page to book, whichever type of property you’re moving into.
