Sydney Construction Crews Are Quietly Booking Commercial Cleaners to make money — Here’s Why

It used to be: build first, clean last. Now? Sydney construction crews are calling in cleaners before the concrete's even dry.

Here’s why:

👷‍♂️ 1. Post-Job Reviews Now Mention Cleanliness

Property developers and clients are leaving 4-star reviews over “dusty skirtings” and “gritty windows.” That’s costing firms referrals.

🧼 2. Clean Sites Are Safer Sites

Dust buildup causes slips, electrical hazards, and breathing issues. NSW SafeWork reports show a 22% increase in dust-related claims since 2022.

📆 3. Builders Are On Tight Deadlines

Cleaning mid-build and in phases helps avoid rush jobs. “We split the clean into 3 stages now,” says one Paddington contractor.

🛠️ 4. Developers Expect 'Turnkey' Finish

If the client walks into dust? That’s not turnkey — that’s “refund.” Real estate agents demand spotless handovers.

📊 5. Case Study: Duplex Project in Inner West

A builder hired Ultrix to clean after each stage: frame-up, pre-paint, and final. Result? $0 holdbacks, 2 units sold in 8 days.

📣 Call to Action

Whether you’re building luxury homes or budget renos — clean sells. Ultrix keeps your reputation solid (and your dust count zero).
