Stop last mile delays caused by dust, debris, and punch list misses

Construction dust travels

Fine dust settles on ledges, fixtures, cabinet tops, and inside vents. It resurfaces after move in if not removed with the right equipment and sequence.

Multiple trades compete for space

Without a coordinated plan, cleaning overlaps with installs and paint touch ups. That creates rework and pushes your handover date.

A phased cleanup that sticks

We schedule rough, final, and touch up cleans around your closeout. HEPA vacuuming, top down detail, and surface protection reduce re soil and callbacks.

Corporate interior refresh

Phased cleanup reduced dust return and last day rework

A remodel approached handover with multiple trades still completing touch ups. Skyward staged a rough clean to remove debris and capture fine dust with HEPA vacuums, followed by a final detail on glass, fixtures, cabinets, and floors. After minor paint fixes, we returned for touch up. The space presented well for the walkthrough and opened with fewer day one service requests.
