Post-Renovation Tips that Will Help you Get Organized Effectively

Renovation as a process is quite cumbersome. It calls for accommodating multiple people, things, appliances, machines, etc., at your place, which makes your space not just messy but also dirty.


Once you are done renovating your space, you are not just left with a new space but also with some dust and paint fumes that need to be taken care of. It is often said that the post-renovation journey can be a bit messy. Planning the renovation journey is not enough; you need to make sure that you have a clear plan for your post-renovation journey as well. The reason is simple, if you plan the cleaning process decently, you can organize your house quickly and that too without wasting much of your time and energy. Cleaning the house after renovation requires you to appoint a lot of people. Thus, it is suggested that you plan it in a way so that all these people are aware of the tasks and duties that they are expected to deploy. Now doing is not rocket science; you just need to be careful with some things. And to help you more, we have listed some tips for you that will assist you in clearing off the mess that has been created.

1.Prep your site well:

The very primary thing that you need to keep in your head before you start renovating your house is to start protecting your space. You can do this by covering up your furniture or some other attachments so that they don’t get spoiled during the process. You can even opt for covering the floor to protect or from getting scratched or dented. The best way to do this is to speak to your contractor and be clear about the expectations that you have with him about the post-renovation stage. You can talk to him about whether the cleaning stage is a part of the project or whether it will be charged additionally.

2. Open up our place:

After you are done with the renovation, you need to clean the dust that is there at your place. But before you grab a piece of cloth to do this, make sure you open up all the doors and windows; this will help in ventilating the room. An open window or door lets the fresh air in, thus making the atmosphere clean. You can also opt for switching on the home's air filter (if you have one) to absorb the excess dust particles that are lingering in the air.

3.Use an Air purifier :

Getting rid of the dust and debris is not enough. You also need to get rid of the scents or chemicals that are there in the air. The smell and the fumes, when inhaled, can be hazardous to health. So, yes, you need to see that the area that you are living in has air that is fresh and contains no lingering odours. To solve this, you can install an air purifier in every room. The work of an air purifier is to eliminate all unwanted smell and replace it with cleaner air that is not just clean but also healthy to breathe in. Many interior design companies suggest that the air purifiers should be used for at least two weeks after the renovation is complete.

4.Arrange your closet and storage spaces :

Once you are done cleaning and dusting your home, it is a good time to start putting everything back into its rightful place. This encompasses everything right from arranging your closets, cabinets, and all other storage spaces. To make this organizing process easy, make sure that you label everything right at the beginning of the renovation process so that everything is kept in the desired spots. You can even cover your things ups with plastic wraps just to give them that extra protection so that everything remains clean and dust-free until you plan your next renovation.


Keeping your house spotless and clean after a renovation sounds a bit difficult but do not worry; this is not as difficult as it sounds. You just need to make sure that the contractor or the designing company that you have hired is a perfectionist and helps you in your post-renovation journey as well.
