Builders Clean in Fuenlabrada: What's Included & How Long

In Fuenlabrada, a post-construction clean after a new build or a full reform usually takes a two-person team between six and ten hours for a 90 m² flat — normally one long day, sometimes two half-days when the dust is heavy or the paint is still fresh. It covers the whole property in a set order: dry dust and lime off ceilings and walls first, then windows and frames, kitchen and bathroom degreasing and descaling, floors, skirting boards and a final detail pass. It is not a weekly clean done harder; it is a sequence designed to remove construction residue before any furniture goes in.

What's included in a builders clean in Fuenlabrada

The scope below is what a standard post-construction clean covers. If your property has extras — a large terrace, floor-to-ceiling glazing, very high ceilings or heavy plaster splashes — tell us when you ask for the quote so the time is planned properly.

• Dust removal, top down: ceilings, walls, cornices, extractor grilles, light fittings, tops of wardrobes and door frames, using vacuums with filters rather than dry cloths that simply move the dust around.
• Paint, plaster and adhesive spots: careful removal from tiles, glass, frames, worktops and sanitaryware, with the right product for each surface.
• Silicone and grout haze: wiped from tiles and shower trays, and grout lines in bathrooms and kitchens cleaned of residue.
• Windows and frames: interior glass, frames, tracks, sills and shutters, which is often the slowest part of the job.
• Kitchen: degreasing of worktops, splashbacks, sink, extractor and tiles, plus the inside of newly fitted cabinets to clear sawdust and packaging dust.
• Bathrooms: descaling and lime removal, WC, basin, bath, shower screen and tiles.
• Details: doors and handles, skirting boards, sockets, switches, radiators, wardrobes inside and out.
• Floors last: vacuumed and then mopped with the product suited to porcelain, laminate, parquet or natural stone.

How long it takes

Time depends on square metres, how much dust there is, how many bathrooms you have and how much glass needs doing. As a working guide:

• 1-bedroom flat, 50–60 m²: around 4–6 hours with two cleaners.
• 2–3 bedroom flat, 80–100 m²: around 6–10 hours, usually one full day.
• 3–4 bedroom chalet, 150–200 m²: around 12–20 hours, spread over two days with a larger team.

These are estimates to help you plan the move-in date, not a fixed commitment — the final timing is confirmed in the quote once we know the state of the property. Two things reliably add hours: dust that has settled into every groove after the trades have finished, and heights such as double-height living rooms or tall windows that need access equipment.

What makes a Fuenlabrada clean different

Fuenlabrada and the surrounding southern belt have seen a lot of new build and reform work, so many of our jobs here are first cleans in brand-new flats and recently renovated apartments. The local climate plays its part too: the dry air combined with heating in the colder months leaves very fine dust that settles into skirting boards, wardrobes and radiator fins, and it also encourages limescale and calcium deposits in bathrooms, which need a descaling stage rather than a quick wipe.

Many buildings in the area are flats with a portero and communities that set rules on building-work hours, lift protection and noise. We plan around those: access and key handover through the concierge, protection for communal areas, and cleaning scheduled inside permitted hours. The same approach applies to the larger chalets we clean in the north-west, in areas such as Pozuelo and Las Rozas, where there is simply more glass, more floors and more rooms to work through.

We also work regularly for English-speaking owners — expats living in Salamanca, Chamberí, Pozuelo and La Moraleja, and holiday-home owners who are not in Spain when the work finishes. Briefings, updates and the final walk-through can all be done in English, and we can coordinate with your builder or site manager so you do not have to be there in person.

Indicative prices and booking

As an orientation, post-construction cleaning is usually priced at €6–12/m² depending on dust and heights. These figures are indicative only: the exact price depends on the size of the property, the number of bathrooms, the amount of glass and the condition it is left in by the trades. A short video or a site visit is usually enough for us to give you a firm figure.
