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.
