In any case, construction companies do not always rent apartments clean and they need to be washed and cleaned before moving in. In this article, the specialists of our site will talk about how you can quickly, efficiently and professionally clean an apartment after the Developer.
What types of stains are found in new apartments after repair?
The most common construction pollution in new apartments is putty, grout on the tile (left after grouting), traces of sealant, a drop of primer and paint. Gypsum dust can also occur if stucco work was carried out in the apartment or there were decorative elements with a gypsum component. It often happens that on the walls in the bathrooms there is technical fat on the tiles. Greasy stains shine and are difficult to clean with plain water, a rag or ordinary chemicals. You need to know how to deal with all of these contaminants.
Our recommendations for cleaning apartments (chemistry, technology, equipment)
Cleaning the apartment from pollution always begins with determining the types of construction spots and the correct selection of means and their concentration to remove building dirt.
- Complex construction contaminants such as fresh primer stains, tile adhesives, bicomponent building adhesives, acrylics can be well removed and washed with acid-base chemicals such as Alpha 19 or Alpha 20, the difference between them is that Alpha 20 is best for porous types of tiles. It is important to use the concentration correctly, not to overdo it with chemistry, so as not to burn and spoil the top layer of the tile. It is better to work with such chemistry in glasses, gloves and respirators.
- Gypsum dust, putty, and grout are best washed with PROBEL chemistry, PRO-BRITE, which will allow dust to be cleaned from hard surfaces and create a repellent environment for dust to enter the walls.
- Windows after the builder can be washed with special tools that create a dust-repellent film on the windows, allowing them to remain clean for a long time. One of these concentrated products is GL-CRYSTAL SOLUTION, diluted as 1 to 50 or 1 to 40, depending on your needs.
- A sealant and a greasy technical layer on the tile do a good job of washing off acetone, turpentine, and paint thinners. But for the complete departure of this greasy layer from the tile, you will need to walk several times on the surface.
- Dust removal of suspended ceilings is best done with the help of Mr. Muscle and a dry rag. Gently remove dust from ceilings without pressing and pressure.
What equipment and inventory will be relevant in the house for cleaning?
- Construction vacuum cleaners Karcher, Clinfix. Household vacuum cleaners are better not to use, they have less exhaustion and traction, as a result, most of the dust simply will not be sucked into the vacuum cleaner.
- The steam cleaner allows you to clean tiles, bottlenecks, and frame openings in a quality manner. A special thin nozzle of the steam generator will deliver a thin stream of steam into the cracks and bottlenecks in the apartment.
- Of course, you will need sets of sklizov and fur coats for high-quality washing of windows inside and out.
- A good mood and the help of neighbors also will not hurt.
- Do not forget to buy good scrapers to remove local contaminants. We recommend Unger brand scrapers.
Of course, if budgets allow, then order a professional cleaning of the apartment in a cleaning company. Which will choose the right chemistry, equipment, inventory and put the house in order. 7-10 hours of quality work and the apartment will be ready to move in.
