New-construction & make-ready cleaning

Havens Touch provides post-construction and make-ready cleaning for new builds, remodels, and flips across Fort Bend County: full dust removal, sticker and paint-spot scraping, window and track detailing, fixture polishing, cabinet interiors, and finish-floor cleaning — so the home shows the way the builder intended.

Construction dust gets everywhere — inside cabinets, on top of door frames, into window tracks. It's finer than house dust, it resettles for days after the trades leave, and a regular clean just pushes it around. A make-ready clean is its own discipline, and it's been part of our work since we cleaned flip houses alongside contractors years ago.

Timing is most of the job. Clean while a trade still has a punch-list item left, and their last visit undoes yours. The right slot is behind the final trade and ahead of the first walkthrough — which is why we coordinate with your super instead of just taking an address and a date.

The other half is the details buyers actually touch: sticker residue on new glass, paint flecks on fixtures, the protective film someone forgot inside a drawer. A new home should feel new at the fingertip level, not just at the doorway. That's the standard the final clean answers for.

Builders and flippers: we schedule around your trades, show up when the punch list says clean, and the home is walkthrough-ready when we leave. Ask about invoicing for multiple properties.

What’s included — item by item

Not a vague bullet list — this is the actual working checklist, with what each line really means in your home.

Full dust removal, top-down

Vents, fans, frames, and walls down to surfaces — in the order that keeps it gone.

Stickers, labels & film

Scraped and cleaned off glass, appliances, and fixtures without scratching new finishes.

Paint & mud spots

Flecks and overspray lifted from glass, tile, and hardware — carefully, finish by finish.

Windows, sills & tracks

Construction dust loves tracks — they're detailed until they slide clean.

Cabinets, inside & out

Sawdust out of every drawer and shelf before the first dish goes in.

Fixtures & hardware polished

Faucets, handles, and lighting shined to the showroom standard buyers expect.

Kitchens & baths, show-ready

The two rooms every walkthrough lingers in, detailed accordingly.

Finish-appropriate floors

Each surface cleaned the way its manufacturer intends — wood, tile, or LVP, dust-mopped then finished.

The visit, start to finish

Knowing exactly what a visit looks like is half the comfort of booking one. Here’s the honest play-by-play.

Scheduled with the super
We slot in behind the last trade — after paint touch-ups, after the punch list, not before. Cleaning too early means cleaning twice.
Dust first, everywhere
Top-down through every room until the air-settled layer is gone from vents, frames, and flats.
The picky pass
Stickers, film, paint spots, and smudges — the fingertip details that separate 'cleaned' from 'ready to show.'
Floors on the way out
Final vacuum and finish-appropriate mop, walking backwards out the door. The next feet in the house are the walkthrough's.

01Your quote

What shapes the number

Every quote is flat and individual — here’s exactly what we weigh when we build yours, so the number makes sense before you ever see it.

Construction phase

A rough clean mid-build and a final clean before walkthrough are different scopes — tell us which stage you're at.

Square footage & glass

Window count moves make-ready quotes more than bedroom count does — glass and tracks are the slow work.

How dusty it got

Drywall sanding and floor refinishing leave far more behind than a light remodel. Say what the trades did and the number will be right.

One home or a pipeline

Single make-ready, or several closings a month? Volume scheduling and invoicing work differently — and better.

02Real situations

Who books this

If one of these sounds like your week, this is your service.

The builder closing homes

A community with closings every month needs a final-clean trade it can put on the schedule and forget about. That's the arrangement we hold.

The flipper before listing photos

The reveal photos sell the flip. We've cleaned flips since before Havens Touch had a name — reveal-day standard is home ground.

The family whose build finished

Your builder's clean is often a broom clean. Before furniture arrives is the one chance to detail the house while it's still empty.

New-Construction Cleaning questions

When in the build should the clean happen?

After the trades are out and the punch list is nearly closed — clean too early and the dust wins. We're glad to coordinate timing with your super or GC.

Do you work with builders and flippers on multiple properties?

Yes — that's some of our favorite work. Text us and we'll set up scheduling and invoicing that fits your pipeline.

Is a new home really that dirty?

Dustier than any lived-in home we clean. Drywall and sawdust settle into every cabinet, track, and vent — new homes look clean from the doorway and fail the fingertip test everywhere.
