Cleaning

The Clean Tool is arguably the most-used instrument in House Flipper, serving as the player's primary means of removing filth, grime, stains, spills, mud, and general mess from floors and surfaces throughout every property. Nearly every job begins with a full cleaning pass, and the Clean Tool handles the vast majority of mess types found in residential and commercial spaces alike. From greasy kitchen floors to muddy hallways and dusty baseboards, this tool's wide cleaning radius makes it efficient for large surface areas.

Tied directly to the Cleaning skill tree, the Clean Tool improves significantly as players invest skill points into cleaning perks. Early upgrades increase the amount of mess removed per sweep, while advanced perks allow players to earn bonus coins for achieving spotless rooms and completing cleaning objectives faster. The Cleaning skill tree is one of the first worth maxing out because clean properties command higher sale prices regardless of renovation quality, and many buyer profiles specifically require a cleanliness threshold before they will consider purchasing a flipped home.

The Clean Tool is effective against most standard mess types including dust, mud, grease, paint splatter, and general dirt, though some specialized mess types such as broken glass, large debris piles, or outdoor organic waste may require the Vacuum or other tools. Pairing the Clean Tool with the Window Cleaning Tool ensures a complete interior clean that satisfies even the pickiest buyer profiles. Experienced flippers often sweep entire properties in a single efficient path before switching to renovation work, keeping the workflow clean and organized from room to room.
