The Post-Construction Clean a McKinney Project Actually Needs
Construction dust is not ordinary dust and it does not behave like it. Cutting drywall, tile and lumber produces particles fine enough to hang in the air for hours after the saws stop, then settle everywhere at once: on top of door casings, inside return air vents, in the runners under every drawer, along the track of every window. One dry pass with a cloth relocates it rather than removing it.
North McKinney is still filling in, and Trinity Falls closes houses that look finished the day the keys change hands. Underneath that appearance sit grout haze on the tile, sticker adhesive and paint flecks on the glass, sawdust in the vent covers and drywall powder in the pantry shelving. Leave it and the HVAC pushes it back into the house for a year.
The other half of this work happens in the oldest part of town. Kitchen and bath renovations in the Victorians and Craftsman homes around the courthouse square generate plaster dust, which is finer and more pervasive than anything a new build produces, and it lands on original woodwork and antique tile that a harsh product would ruin faster than the dust ever could.
Our McKinney post-construction cleaning runs in sequence: HEPA vacuum first, top to bottom, then damp wipe, then floors last. Inside every cabinet, drawer, closet and pantry shelf, vent covers and door frames, grout haze and adhesive off the tile and glass, tracks and sills cleared, light fixtures and switch plates detailed.
It is worth waiting until the trades are genuinely finished, including touch-up paint. One clean after the last worker leaves does more than three attempted while punch-list items are still being closed out.

When McKinney Projects Need a Post-Construction Clean
1After a New Build Is Signed Off
A house on the north side closes looking finished while grout haze, sawdust and drawer-runner powder are all still sitting in it.
2Finishing a Renovation Near the Square
Plaster dust from work in a century-old home travels through the whole house and settles on woodwork that needs a gentle hand.
3Once a Kitchen or Bath Remodel Wraps
Even a single-room project coats the rooms around it. Cabinets, vents and floors well beyond the work zone all need clearing.
4Before an Addition Comes Into Use
New square footage joined to an existing house shares its air. Clean the whole envelope, not just the part that was framed.
5Ahead of Photos or a First Showing
A camera finds every fleck of paint on the glass and every stripe of haze on tile. Both come off before anyone points a lens at the room.
Why McKinney Builders and Owners Book This With Us
HEPA Vacuum Before Anything Gets Wet
Fine build dust has to be lifted out before a damp cloth touches it, or it turns to a smear. Vacuum first, damp wipe second, floors last, every time.
Vents, Tracks and Drawer Runners
The places construction dust actually hides are return air vents, window tracks, drawer runners and the tops of door casings. Those are on the list, not an afterthought.
Haze and Adhesive Removed Correctly
Grout haze, sticker residue and paint flecks come off glass and tile with the right method rather than a blade and hope, so the new finish is not scratched on day one.
Gentle Enough for a Restored Interior
Renovations in hundred-year-old homes need dust taken off original wood, plaster and antique tile without stripping any of it. We work those rooms by hand.

What Our Customers Say
“The builder said the house had been cleaned. There was still sawdust in every vent cover and haze across the whole entry tile. Their crew took a full day and the difference was not subtle.”
Wilhelmina T.
Trinity Falls, McKinney
“We opened up a kitchen wall in an 1890s house and plaster dust reached bedrooms at the other end of the place. They vacuumed everything before touching it with a cloth. The original trim came through untouched.”
Lucian D.
Historic Downtown, McKinney
“Primary bath remodel, and I had no idea how far the dust travelled until they showed me the tops of the door casings down the hall. All of it gone, including inside the drawer runners.”
Saoirse M.
Stonebridge Ranch, McKinney
“Paint flecks and sticker residue were all over the new glass and I was told to expect that for a while. They removed every bit of it without a single scratch on the panes.”
Hiroko A.
Craig Ranch, McKinney
“We added on to the back of the house and they cleaned the whole envelope rather than just the new rooms, which turned out to be exactly right. The air stopped smelling like a job site the same day.”

Post-Construction Cleaning in McKinney: Common Questions
This work prices at $180 - $800+. A single bathroom remodel inside an older home near Towne Lake Park is the lower figure, and a just-completed four-thousand-square-foot Trinity Falls build with four baths and a three-car garage is the upper one.
Construction debris needs HEPA vacuuming in sequence before any moisture, plus haze and adhesive removal that a deep clean never has to deal with. It also takes longer, because the dust is in places ordinary dust never reaches.
After the last trade has left, touch-up paint included. Cleaning while punch-list work is still being closed out means paying twice, since the next cut or sanding pass puts the dust straight back.
Yes, and they are genuinely different jobs. New builds are mostly drywall dust and haze on hard new finishes; renovations near the square are plaster dust on original wood and tile that must be handled gently.
We clean vent and register covers and the visible run behind them. Dust that has travelled deep into the ductwork needs an HVAC duct cleaning contractor, and we will tell you plainly if that is what the house needs.
Most McKinney projects run a full day with a team of three or more. Very large builds or houses where the dust sat for weeks sometimes need a second day, and we say so before we start rather than after.
