Quick answerThe sander has stopped, the boards are up and the crew has left, yet a pale film is already settling on every flat surface. That film is the real finishing job of a renovation. eStreet! Cleaning removes construction dust and fine dust from interiors across Tokyo and the surrounding prefectures, working from the highest surface down to the floor. We quote each project at a fixed price from plans, floor area, photos or a site look, and we reply within one hour.

Why construction dust behaves differently from household dust

Ordinary house dust is mostly fibre and skin and lifts easily. Dust from cutting boards, sanding joint compound or drilling concrete is mineral, sharp and very fine. It floats for a while, then drops onto anything level, and it smears into a grey film if someone wipes it with a damp cloth too early. That is why a quick tidy by the site crew rarely finishes the job. Our crews remove it in a deliberate sequence so that dust is lifted away from the room, not pushed around inside it.

Where fine dust actually ends up

Most people look at floors, but the dust gathers where nobody is looking: the top edge of door frames, window sills and sash tracks, the tops of built-in cabinets, the inside of drawers and shelves, light fittings, switch plates, pipe covers, skirting boards and the back edge of counters. We wipe all of these surfaces, including the surface of vents and grilles, and we open built-in cabinets and shelves so the dust inside is removed as well, not only the dust on the outside.

Work from top to bottom

Dust falls, so cleaning starts high. The order is ceiling-level fixtures and the tops of frames, then walls and doors, then cabinet fronts and interiors, then sills and windows, and last the floors, which are vacuumed and damp-mopped once everything above is clean. Finishing the floor first would only mean doing it again. Following this order is also how we keep the price fixed: the sequence is planned before the visit, so nothing is repeated on the day.

What is not part of this service

We clean surfaces. We do not clean inside air-conditioning ducts, we do not use floor polishing machines, we do not strip wax or apply sealer, and we do not haul away construction waste or heavy debris. Light offcuts and small debris are collected into bags for the site’s own disposal. If you ask for something outside this list, we tell you plainly and do not guess. A surface that is already scratched or etched by the work itself stays as it is, and we point it out in the photo report.

Dust and the people who will use the space

A family moving into a renovated flat, a clinic reception, a small office or a shop that opens next week all have the same worry: breathing in what the builders left behind. Tell us if someone in the household has allergies or asthma, or if infants will be in the room. We choose products accordingly, and we give extra attention to low surfaces and to places where hands and clothing touch, such as door handles, shelf edges and counter fronts.

How the fixed price is set

Cleaning after construction is quoted per project. Send plans, the floor area, photos or invite us for a site look. We reply with one fixed price, a list of what it covers and the team size, either one cleaner with a supervisor or two cleaners with a supervisor, or a larger team sized to the project. The price is confirmed before the visit.

What you receive afterwards

After the visit you get a photo report taken against our checklist, showing sills, shelves, cabinet interiors, fixtures and floors. Contractors forward it to the owner as proof of handover condition, and owners keep it for their records. Payment is by credit card, bank transfer, PayPay or cash, and companies can ask for an invoice. If a spot was missed, report it within 24 hours with a photo and we re-clean it at no extra cost.

Preparing the site before we arrive

A little preparation saves effort. Ask the contractor to finish drilling, cutting and sanding before our visit, because any dust made afterwards lands on clean surfaces. Remove large offcuts and packaging if you can, and leave the protective sheeting on floors until we start so it can be taken off in the right order. Tell us where we can reach water and power, how to enter the building and whether the lift is shared with residents, so the team arrives with the right equipment.

Scheduling, areas and language

Standard visits run from 9:00 to 17:00, and out-of-hours visits can be agreed by message, which suits sites where other trades are still working. We serve the 23 wards of Tokyo plus Kanagawa, Saitama, Chiba, Ibaraki, Tochigi and Gunma. Outside the 23 wards, travel cost is stated before the booking is final. Requests are accepted at any hour and our team works in English and Japanese, so overseas owners and Japanese contractors can both be in the conversation.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you remove dust that is already inside built-in cabinets?

Yes. We open built-in cabinets, drawers and shelves and wipe the inside surfaces, not only the fronts.

Do you clean air-conditioning ducts to remove dust?

No. We wipe the surface of vents and grilles, but duct cleaning is not part of our service, and we tell you so rather than guess.

Will one visit remove every trace of dust?

We work through a checklist and document the result with photos. If you spot a missed area, report it within 24 hours with a photo and we re-clean it at no extra cost.

How do I get a price?

Send plans, the floor area or a few photos. We reply within one hour with a fixed price for the project, confirmed before the visit.
