Timeframes depend on the area, stage of renovation, and degree of contamination. Typical sequence:

What determines the cost — post-renovation cleaning price?

We do not list fixed prices on the website, as the price is determined individually. Key factors affecting cost:

• Degree and nature of contamination (paint, varnish, residue);
• Surface types (marble, laminate, self-leveling floors, carpet);
• Bulky waste and construction waste removal;
• Specialized equipment required (floor scrubber, steam generator, industrial vacuum cleaner);
• Urgency and time of work (night and emergency cleaning are more expensive due to resource consumption);
