Heritage Home Restoration Cleaning

Service Type: Post-Renovation Deep Clean
Challenge: Construction debris, plaster dust in hard-to-reach areas (e.g., crown molding, original hardwood floors), and delicate antique fixtures needing careful handling.

Our Solution:
Preserving the home’s integrity required a museum-level approach:

  • Dust Mitigation: Sealed off renovated areas with plastic sheeting and used negative air machines to prevent cross-contamination.
  • Gentle Techniques:
    • Hand-scraped plaster dust from original crown molding using soft silicone tools.
    • Cleaned stained-glass windows with distilled water and lint-free cloths to avoid streaks.
    • Applied pH-neutral wood cleaner to restore 100-year-old hardwood floors without stripping finishes.
  • Custom Tools: Designed angled attachments for vacuums to reach behind radiators and under clawfoot tubs.

Result:

  • Restored the home’s original charm without damaging fragile details.
  • The client called it “better than move-in ready” and referred us to their contractor network.
