Shop fit-out cleaning in Tokyo
A new shop is ready to open only when the dust from the fit-out is gone from every shelf, sill and pane of glass. eStreet! cleans retail interiors in Tokyo after the carpenters, electricians and sign fitters have left.
Between the carpenters and the first delivery of stock
A shop fit-out ends with a quiet gap. The carpenters, electricians and sign fitters have left, but the merchandise, the till system and the staff have not arrived yet. That gap is when cleaning belongs. Fine dust from boards and plaster settles on every flat surface, and once stock is on the shelves it is far harder to remove. We schedule the visit for the moment your contractor confirms the trades are finished, so the clean is the last step and nothing is disturbed afterwards. Tell us the date you expect stock or the day the shop opens, and we work backwards from it.
The shopfront, glass and sashes
Customers judge a shop from the pavement, so the glass comes first. We clean shopfront windows, glass doors, display windows and sashes, and remove protective film, stickers and labels left by the glazier. Fresh sealant smudges and light paint splatter on glass are wiped away with surface-safe methods. We also wipe door frames, handles and the sill where dust collects. Lightboxes and signs mounted high on the facade are outside our scope, and exterior high-rise or gondola work is not something we offer.
Shelving, counters and built-in fixtures
Retail fixtures are often custom-made, with painted boards, laminate, timber veneer, metal rails and glass shelves. We wipe the tops, edges and undersides, clean the inside of built-in cabinets, remove curing tape and protective film from panels, and lift dust out of slotted rails and grooves where it hides. Each surface is treated with products suited to its finish, and we tell you before the visit if a finish looks too delicate for a standard wipe. The cash counter gets a careful pass around cable openings and drawers.
Fitting rooms, stockroom and staff washroom
The back of a shop collects as much construction dust as the front, yet it is the part owners forget. Fitting rooms have mirrors, benches and curtain rails. The stockroom has steel shelving and a door that opens all day. The staff washroom needs its toilet, basin and floor cleaned before anyone uses it. We clean all of these, together with any small kitchenette, and bag light offcuts and debris for the site’s own disposal. Hauling away leftover materials or industrial waste is not part of our service.
Floors before the displays go in
We sweep, vacuum and damp-mop the floors after everything above them has been cleaned, working from the back of the unit toward the entrance so we never walk dust across a finished area. Tile, vinyl, timber and carpet are each handled in the way the material allows. Wax stripping, sealing and machine polishing are not offered. If your contractor has specified a floor coating, we tell you where our work stops so the right trade can finish it.
Units inside malls and tenant buildings
Many shops open inside shopping centres or multi-tenant buildings, where the building manager sets rules for working times, service lifts, vehicle access and waste handling. Share those rules when you ask for the quote and we plan the crew’s route and arrival around them. Out-of-hours work, such as an evening or early-morning visit before opening day, can be agreed in advance. Our standard visits run from 9:00 to 17:00.
Our order of work, from the top down
Dust falls, so we start high and finish low. Ceilings-level items within reach, shelving tops and window heads come first, then walls, doors and fixtures, then counters and glass, and last of all the floor. This is why a single visit after the trades have left works better than several small ones during the fit-out: the order cannot be undone by someone brushing past a freshly cleaned shelf. A final detail pass with the checklist and photos closes the visit.
What to prepare before we arrive
Tell us how we get in, where the keys or access card are collected, and where we may put our equipment. Check that water and electricity are connected, because we use both. Remove valuables and anything you do not want moved. If the brand has a fit-out manual with finish instructions for particular fixtures, send it with your request and we follow it where it concerns cleaning.
One price for the whole unit
Shop fit-out cleaning is quoted per project at a fixed price. Send the floor plan or floor area, photos of the unit and your opening date, or invite us for a short look at the site. Requests are accepted at any hour and we answer within 1 hour, in English or Japanese, with a fixed price and a list of what is included. The price does not change on the day. We choose the team to suit the unit: one cleaner with a supervisor for a small shop, two cleaners with a supervisor for a larger one.
The handover record and payment
After the visit we send a photo report area by area, with the checklist completed. Contractors forward it to the landlord or head office, and owners keep it with their handover papers. If something was missed, tell us within 24 hours with a photo and we re-clean it at no extra cost. Businesses can pay by invoice and bank transfer, and credit card, PayPay or cash are also accepted. Outside the 23 wards, travel cost is stated before the booking is final.

Frequently asked questions
Can you start while some trades are still on site?
It is better to wait until the dusty trades have finished, because dust returns while they work. If a few finishing jobs remain, tell us and we plan a staged visit. The fixed price is agreed beforehand.
Do you remove stickers and protective film from new fixtures?
Yes. Protective film, curing tape, stickers and labels are removed from fixtures, glass and frames, with surface-safe methods.
Will you remove dried paint from the floor or glass?
Light paint splatter and fresh sealant smudges, yes. Cured paint, adhesive damage and scratches are part of the surface, so we tell you before the visit rather than guess.
Can the clean be done outside shop hours or before opening?
Yes. Standard visits are 9:00 to 17:00, and evening or early-morning work can be agreed in advance.
