Final Detail Cleaning St. Louis
Final Detail Cleaning St. Louis is the last step before keys change hands.
From custom builds in Ladue to new construction in Chesterfield Valley and renovations in Clayton—Phase 3 punch-list protocol with white-glove inspection. Our HEPA final pass and client walkthrough standards ensure every surface, every fixture, every corner is inspection-approved.
What Is Phase 3 Final Detail?
Phase 3 is the critical final step in our 3-Phase Construction Clean process. It happens after all trades are complete and before the final walkthrough or inspection.
This isn't about removing construction debris (that's Phase 1) or extracting dust (Phase 2). Final Detail is about achieving showroom-level perfection—the kind that impresses buyers, passes inspections, and protects your reputation.
When You Need Final Detail:
- 24-48 hours before buyer walkthrough
- Morning of final inspection
- After punch list items are resolved
- Before professional photography
- Day of closing/key handoff
The 3-Phase System
Debris removal, pathways cleared
HEPA extraction, dust removal
White glove, showroom ready

We walk every room during daylight hours when dust, streaks, and imperfections are most visible.

How to Remove Construction Dust Permanently
Standard vacuums recirculate silica—the 'Settling Error' makes dust reappear 24 hours later. Our HEPA extraction with negative air principles captures particulates permanently, not just moves them.
Negative Air Containment
We create negative pressure to pull dust toward filters, not spread it through HVAC systems. Airborne silica is captured at the source.
True HEPA Capture
99.97% filtration at 0.3 microns. Silica particles (2.5+ microns) are trapped permanently in the filter, not recirculated into the air.
Multi-Pass Protocol
We clean, wait 24 hours for suspended dust to settle, then clean again. True elimination requires patience—not just a single pass.
