Template project
This is a template project used to illustrate how HUB Centro structures and documents project work. It represents a realistic scope for post-construction cleaning on a phased development, not a specific completed HUB Centro project. Real project case studies will replace placeholders like this one as they’re confirmed with clients.
The challenge
A general contractor needed final cleaning across residential and ground-floor retail units completed on a rolling basis, ahead of a phased occupancy schedule.
Scope
Post-construction final cleaning of individual units and common areas as each phase reached substantial completion, timed to the project’s handover schedule.
Work performed
- Coordinated a rolling cleaning schedule aligned to each phase's completion date
- Completed full final cleaning of residential units, common areas and retail spaces
- Removed construction debris and packaging left behind by other trades
- Confirmed each space met walk-through standards ahead of occupancy
Outcome
Units and common areas were ready ahead of each occupancy phase, with no delays attributed to cleaning readiness.
The situation
Phased occupancy schedules put real pressure on final cleaning — each phase’s handover date is fixed, and cleaning is typically one of the last items before a unit or space can be turned over. A rolling schedule, rather than a single cleaning pass at the very end, is often the only way to keep pace.
How this type of project is typically handled
Cleaning is scheduled directly against the project’s phase completion dates, coordinated with the general contractor’s site team. Debris and packaging left by other trades is cleared as part of the same visit, so a unit is fully ready — not just clean — when it’s handed over.
