You can also hire professional cleaner to clean it for you. Of course they will charge a little.

Vacuum and scrub is important. And you better clean it as soon as the reno is done, after a long time, the dust will settle in and it will be even harder to clean.

vacuum is most effective, but if the plaster or debris is "stuck", you need some sort of solvent from hardware shop... careful tho, cos i heard it may spoil the glaze of your tiles.

easiest way is splash water 2-3 times 1st... then only vacumn again the most tiny dust. if still dusty, mop again. shud be ok.

go get yourself a hi-pressure jet cleaner just like those car wash type. works like a magic in removing stains and cement "ash" especially on windows area after installing grills. dont do this when you have wood flooring.

yes, use it inside the house. wiring? you mean those switch sockets? as long as you dont spray into it direct, no issue.
what kind of flooring you have?
