Cleaning Up After a Renovation
in Johns Creek, GA

The crew packs up and the remodel is finally done, but the dust is not. Renovation dust hangs in the air for days and settles on everything twice. A post-renovation clean pulls the drywall and sawdust out of a lived-in Johns Creek home so you can actually enjoy the new space.

Johns Creek is full of 1990s and 2000s luxury homes getting kitchens opened up and primary baths brought current. A remodel like that throws off dust so fine it behaves more like smoke than dirt, and in an established home already full of furniture, rugs, and window treatments, there is nowhere for it to hide that is not also a surface you use. You wipe a counter, and by the next morning there is a fresh gray film on it again.

A post-renovation clean has to work from the top down and damp, not dry. We start high and come down so nothing falls onto a surface we already finished, damp-wipe every hard surface so the dust binds to the cloth instead of scattering, and HEPA-vacuum floors, corners, and upholstery. We clean after the debris is cleared, so once the leftover materials and trash are out, we handle the fine dust the build left behind.

Why It Hits Harder in Johns Creek

Updating an established luxury home.

Most Johns Creek remodels are updates, not full guts: a kitchen refresh in Medlock Bridge, a primary bath redone in Sugar Mill, a bank of cabinets replaced in a St Ives home built in the 1990s. That means the dust settles into a house that is lived-in and large, with more rooms for it to drift into than a smaller home. The fine stuff collects on cabinet tops, crown molding, trim, and fan blades, then lifts off and resettles every time a door opens or the HVAC runs. We HEPA-vacuum the vent covers and register boots so less of it recirculates. Changing the filter is handled by an HVAC tech, not us.

This clean is built for a lived-in home after a partial remodel: top-down damp-wiping, HEPA vacuuming, interior windows and sills, and the kitchen and bath surfaces reset. See the full post-renovation guide for the method. A post-renovation deep clean starts at $180, depending on scope. For a full gut or a brand-new build, post-construction cleaning is the right service.

Johns Creek Post-Renovation Questions

Answers before you book.

Is this different from post-construction cleaning?

Yes. A post-renovation clean is for a lived-in Johns Creek home after a partial remodel, like a new kitchen or an updated bath, where we work around your furniture. Post-construction cleaning is for a full gut or an empty new build with heavier debris. Tell us the scope and we will point you to the right one.

Do you haul the renovation debris?

No. We clean after the debris is cleared. Once the leftover materials, offcuts, and trash from the project are removed, we handle the fine dust and film left behind. We do not haul or dispose of construction debris.

Why does the dust keep coming back after I wipe it down?

Because remodel dust is extremely fine and never fully settles the first time. It collects on high flat spots like cabinet tops and crown molding, then lifts off and resettles lower every time a door opens or the HVAC runs. The fix is a top-down, damp-wipe method that traps it instead of moving it.

Do you change the HVAC filter or clean the ducts?

We HEPA-vacuum the vent covers and register boots so less settled dust recirculates. Changing the HVAC filter and cleaning the ducts are handled separately by an HVAC tech, not part of our cleaning.
