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.
The crew cleans up the mess they leave behind, such as droppings, debris and damaged materials. Pest control and mold remediation are separate trades, and the team can say when they are needed.
Remove trash and spoiled food first, then waste and soiled materials, then scrub and disinfect, and finish with odor treatment. Protective gear is important, and mixed cleaning chemicals should never be used together.
Most often the resident, owner or family pays. For a rental, the lease and local law decide between landlord and tenant. Some communities offer help for older adults or people with disabilities, and a local aging service or community group may know what exists.
Usable goods go to donation or recycling where possible. Spoiled, soiled or unsafe items go to disposal, and waste that may carry germs is handled as regulated medical waste.
Usually not. A regular service is not equipped for waste, spoiled food, mold or pests. Squalor cleanup teams bring protective gear, hauling and disinfecting, and they know when to stop and call another trade.
Questions about cost, insurance or timing are part of the first conversation.
