After Builders Cleaning Case Study

Office Fit Out Cleaning Sandyford

Floor
One.
Area
1,134m²
Finish
Fully carpeted.
Deadline
One day.

An inspection already booked. No room to slip.

Hexaclean sent a 7-person team to Logical Real Estate Consulting's Sandyford fit-out — nine rooms, two kitchens, one day to get it all done. Then, once on site, the job got bigger. Windows, sills, channels — a full deep clean nobody had quoted for.

No delay, no pushback. Extra staff pulled off a quieter site, second team built on the spot. Zero snags at inspection. Within a week, two more projects landed from the same client.

That's what after builders cleaning looks like when it's done right.

The Challenge

A large, multi-room office fitout doesn’t clean itself in a day — and that was the entire window Hexaclean had to work with. Nine rooms, two kitchens, two large toilets, a staircase, all needing a genuine deep clean before an inspection that was already booked, with zero slack to push it back.

Then the scope changed. Once the team was already on site, it became clear the windows hadn’t been properly cleaned in years — silicone residue built up along the frames, channels clogged with dust and grime nobody had touched since the fitout began. Logical Real Estate Consulting asked whether a full window, sill and channel deep clean could be added — work that hadn’t been quoted, hadn’t been planned for, and under normal circumstances would need another full day on its own. There was no flexibility on the inspection date. Whatever got added to the job had to fit inside the time that was already there.

What We Did

The core clean — every room, both kitchens, two large toilets and the staircase — was handled by a 7-person team across a single 8-hour day. This is standard scope for a post construction clean of this size, but the timeline left no room for a second visit if anything was missed.

When the window deep clean came up mid-job, rather than pushing the timeline or turning the request down, Hexaclean pulled additional staff from a different project that had no immediate time pressure — building a second team on the spot to strip the built-up silicone and clear every channel, without delaying the main clean or the inspection date.

What We Delivered

Full Office Floor Clean

Every room across the fitout brought up to inspection-ready standard — surfaces wiped down, floors cleaned, skirting boards and doors detailed throughout the space.

Doors & Fixtures

Every door wiped down streak-free throughout the floor, along with switches, sockets and fittings — the small details that make a space feel genuinely finished.

Two Kitchens

Both kitchen areas cleaned to a genuinely hygienic, handover-ready standard — surfaces, fittings and fixtures spotless and ready for staff use.

Two Large Toilets

Fully cleaned and sanitised to a standard suitable for immediate occupation, with no area treated as lower priority.

Staircase

Cleaned throughout, treads and handrails included — the kind of detail a walkthrough notices first if it's missed.

Full Window Deep Clean

Years of built-up silicone residue stripped from every frame, all channels cleared of dust and grime — added to the job mid-way through and completed without pushing back the inspection.

Why This Matters

Two things stand out here beyond the clean itself. First, the scale — a large multi-room office floor with kitchens, toilets and a staircase, fully turned around in a single day, is a genuine test of team coordination, not just headcount. Second, the flexibility — agreeing to a same-day scope change that would normally need another full day, and solving it by redeploying staff rather than saying no or pushing the deadline, is the difference between a contractor who fits a brief and one who actually solves a problem.

That’s the standard behind every after builders cleaning job Hexaclean takes on — and Logical Real Estate Consulting clearly agreed. Within a week of this job, they brought Hexaclean back for two more projects.

Outcome

The Result

“Great job — thanks again! We will be in touch with future projects.”

Project Manager — Logical Real Estate Consulting
Zero snags. Passed inspection on the original timeline despite the added scope.
2 more projects. Awarded by the same client within one week.

The floor passed inspection with zero snags, on the original timeline, despite the added scope.

Logical Real Estate Consulting didn't just say they'd be back — within a week, Hexaclean was called back for two further projects with the same client.

That's the real proof: not a one-off job done well, but a client immediately trusting the team with more work.

FAQs — Sandyford Office Cleaning

How much does office cleaning cost after a fit out in Sandyford?

Costs depend on floor size and scope, but are typically quoted against the confirmed square metreage rather than a flat rate. A large multi-room office floor in Sandyford — including two kitchens, two toilets and a staircase — was quoted and delivered in a single day by a 7-person team.

Hexaclean delivers post construction and after builders cleaning across Sandyford and South Dublin, including large single-floor office fit-outs ahead of tenant inspection. A recent Sandyford project was completed in one day, with the client returning for two further jobs within a week.

Yes, if they can genuinely scale their team. On a recent Sandyford job, an unplanned window deep clean was added once the crew was already on site — covered by pulling extra staff from a different, lower-priority project rather than delaying the work or the inspection date.

A large multi-room office floor, including kitchens, toilets and a staircase, can be completed in a single day with a correctly sized team — one recent Sandyford project of this scale was finished in 8 hours by 7 operatives.

A specialist post-construction cleaner — not a general commercial cleaner — is best suited to fit-out work, since construction-specific issues like built-up silicone residue and clogged window channels need different handling than routine office cleaning. Hexaclean has delivered this across multiple Sandyford and South Dublin office fit-outs, including repeat projects for the same client.

Look for a contractor who can confirm RAMS documentation, team scaling on short notice, and a clear answer for how they handle scope changes discovered on site — a contractor confident on all three is generally the safer choice for a fixed inspection date.

Yes — specialist post-construction cleaners routinely deal with built-up silicone and grime in window frames and channels that general cleaning doesn’t address, particularly on fit-outs where windows haven’t been properly cleaned since installation.

A contractor with a flexible operative pool can often add capacity same-day rather than requiring advance notice — on a recent Sandyford project, a second team was built on the spot to take on an unplanned scope addition without affecting the scheduled inspection.

What's included in a post construction office clean?

A full post-construction office clean typically covers every room, kitchens, toilets, staircases, skirting boards, doors and fittings — brought to inspection-ready standard, not just a surface tidy. Window deep cleaning, including frames and channels, is often needed separately if the space hasn’t been maintained during the build.

Yes — issues like window channels never cleaned since installation are common on fit-outs and often only become obvious once a team is physically on site. A reliable contractor should be able to quote and resource this on the spot rather than requiring a second visit.

Yes — Hexaclean covers Sandyford’s business park developments and corporate offices, including large-scale, single-day fit-out cleans ahead of tenant handover.

Team size scales with square metreage and complexity — a Sandyford office floor with nine rooms, two kitchens, two toilets and a staircase was cleaned in a single 8-hour day using a 7-person team.

A properly resourced contractor shouldn’t miss a confirmed deadline — the risk is minimised by scaling the team to match the job on day one, and by having the flexibility to redeploy extra staff if the scope grows unexpectedly, as happened on a recent Sandyford project.

Yes — Hexaclean can mobilise on tight turnarounds, including weekend work, when a Sandyford handover or inspection date requires it.

Yes — many clients return to the same contractor once trust is established on the first job. On a recent Sandyford project, the client booked Hexaclean for two further projects within a week of the first job being completed.
