Before moving into an empty flat in Karabucak Mahallesi, Demre, the order of cleaning cupboards, bathrooms, kitchens and floors matters just as much as deciding when to clean the windows. If painting, fitting work or furniture moving is still underway, detailed cleaning done too early can collect dust again. Defining the scope in advance helps avoid uncertainty about repeat work and access.
What each cleaning service can cover
Home cleaning focuses on living areas, kitchens and bathrooms. Empty-flat cleaning can be discussed around cupboards, floors and wet areas before move-in. Post-construction work separates bulky waste from fine dust. Office cleaning needs clear limits around documents and electronics. Apartment and site work covers entrances, stairs and landings; villa work is considered by floors, rooms, stairs and windows. Upholstery cleaning depends on the fabric label and ventilation, while window cleaning depends on accessible conditions.
Work order for an empty flat before moving in
The sequence depends on whether the flat is genuinely empty and whether other work remains. The condition of leftover packaging, movable waste and heavy dust can be identified first. Areas that are cleaned from high to low may then be planned: cupboard tops and interiors, doors, kitchen and bathroom surfaces, followed by floors. A final floor or touch-surface clean after belongings arrive can be discussed separately.
Water and electricity access, usable taps, working sockets and the entry arrangement should be shared beforehand. For paint, mortar or adhesive residue, no method should be selected without knowing the surface material and the manufacturer’s care guidance. Scratches, persistent marks and coating issues can have different causes; their condition and suitable treatment require professional assessment.
Set clear access limits for windows and frames
When discussing window cleaning, note more than the number of panes: explain how windows open, whether they are reachable from inside, the frame material and any nearby belongings. Windows that can be safely reached from inside are not the same scope as exterior surfaces at height or in a risky position. Screens, shutters, stuck protective film or sensitive coatings should be mentioned early so that an appropriate method can be assessed.
Scheduling window work after dust-producing renovation or moving is complete can reduce the chance that frames become dirty again. Rather than trying to classify a mark, scratch or coating change with finger or fingernail tests at home, record its location for photos and an on-site assessment.
Match shared-area cleaning to pedestrian use
For apartment and site cleaning, expected foot traffic affects the work order when stairs, landings or entrances will be wet. If moving, deliveries or routine access continue, the whole route does not need to be wet at once; a passage arrangement can be discussed with the management or users. The floors to be cleaned, any lift-area use and the boundary around doorways should be clearly defined.
Short checklist before and after the work
- Before: Share whether the flat is empty, water and power access, key handover, and the moving or renovation schedule.
- For the scope: List cupboard interiors, appliance interiors, balcony, windows, frames and shared areas separately.
- After: Review the kitchen, bathroom, cupboard interiors, floor edges and the agreed accessible windows together.

Should windows be cleaned before or after moving?
If moving or dust-producing work is still continuing, window and frame cleaning is often planned after those activities finish. Access, window condition and the moving schedule should be considered together.
Can shared stairs be cleaned on the same day as the flat?
They can, but foot traffic, furniture moving and safe passage while floors are wet need to be considered. Agreeing the order of flat and shared-area work beforehand can reduce conflicts in use.
