How can I cope with cleaning the room after repair?

Experts recommend keeping the room as clean as possible during the repair. Afterwards it will save you a lot of time. “It’s easier said than done”, you’ll notice, so roll up your sleeves and proceed directly to the cleaning:

• First you need to take out all that is superfluous. Fold the large garbage into bags and take it out into the street. If it turns out to be too much, you will have to take it to the nearest landfill. Then collect less garbage and sweep the floor.
• Vacuum the surfaces. If you have the opportunity, use a construction vacuum cleaner – it is much more powerful and faster to cope with the task. Corrosive construction dust could settle even on the ceiling and walls, so start vacuuming from above, moving down the walls, and finishing cleaning the floor. Do not forget to vacuum the corners and the skirtings.
• With the help of cleaning and detergents, make a damp cleaning of the room, starting with the walls, cornices and windows and ending with the floor.
• Even if the soft furniture has been carefully concealed, it should be carefully cleaned using a vacuum cleaner, a cleaning agent or a soap solution.
• Thoroughly ventilate the room.

With a successful scenario, cleaning the apartment will be completed. But, unfortunately, except for dust and debris, after repairs there will probably remain stains from paint, plaster and the like.
