Questions Owners and Families in Southside, AR Ask About Unsanitary Home Cleanup
What is extreme cleaning?
Extreme cleaning is a broad term for cleaning a home that is far beyond ordinary housekeeping. It can include trash removal, deep scrubbing, disinfecting, odor treatment and removal of soiled materials.
How do you help someone whose home has become filthy?
Be kind and avoid blame. Many people end up in these conditions after illness, injury, a loss or a hard stretch of life. Offer to help, ask what matters most to them and let a cleanup team handle the hard parts.
How much does filth cleanup cost?
It depends on the size of the home, the amount of waste, soiled materials, odor, pests and access. The cleanup team gives a price after seeing the home. Be careful with any quote given sight unseen.
Is squalor cleanup done before a tenant moves in?
It can be. Property managers and landlords sometimes schedule cleanup before a new tenant moves in, and some require proof that cleaning was done. The team can note the condition of the home for the owner's records.
Can I clean up a filthy home myself?
Only if the area is small, the surfaces are hard and nothing hazardous is present, and then with gloves, a mask and open windows. Widespread waste, mold, pests or strong odor call for a crew. Never mix cleaning chemicals.
Is a squalid home a biohazard?
It can be. When human or animal waste, blood, body fluids or sharp objects are present, the cleanup follows biohazard methods. Crews wear protective gear and follow rules such as the OSHA Bloodborne Pathogens Standard, 29 CFR 1910.1030.
