Hoarding Level 1: The following conditions are considered safe and sanitary: All doors and stairways accessible, light clutter, no smells, and no more than three locations with animal waste.
Hoarding Level 2: Dirty food prep surfaces, noticeable pet waste on the floors, garbage bins that are overflowing, signs of mildew in kitchens and bathrooms, light smells, 2 or more rooms inhabited by clutter, over 6 months of a malfunctioning healing, cooling or ventilation system, and at least one blocked exit.
Hoarding Level 3: Clutter becomes a problem inside and outside of the house at hoarding level 3. There are some major problems such as structural damage, smells that are very strong, and rooms becoming entirely impossible to use.
Hoarding Level 4: A number of rooms are barely livable, mold and mildew are noticeably present throughout the home, animal waste is in many places on the floor, kitchens and bathrooms are almost unusable, and sewer issues along with other extreme problems are apparent. Also, social problems become very noticeable at level 4 hoarding.
Hoarding Level 5: This level of hoarding is the most extreme. There is a substantial amount of structural damage around the premises and foul odors are uncontrolled. Basic needs like electricity and running water are not functioning, and the property needs severe restoration to become safely inhabitable again. Pests are present, and trash makes it very difficult to access certain areas of the home.
Our Hoarding Cleanup Process:
The goal to every hoarding cleanup job in Drexel Hill for us is to bring the home back to a safe, clean and healthy environment. Our hoarding cleanup team in Drexel Hill are specially trained in not only dealing with decluttering a home, but also identifying and remediating any sources of water damage and mold growth. We keep an open level of communication with all parties involved in the hoarding cleanup process, and separate any potential valuables in the process. Our hoarding cleanup approach is as follows:
Assessment
Evaluating the conditions of the space and safety concerns is the first step in building a remediation scope.
Estimate
This step gives a detailed list of what services will be performed and the final cost associated with the cleanup.
Sorting
We will sort through the items ensuring not to throw away any valuables and which items may be donated aside from the which items will be discarded.
Removal
The items marked as trash will then be placed either into an on-site dumpster or into a vehicle for disposal.
Cleaning
The structure will then be cleaned, sanitized and brought back to a suitable condition for living.
The length of time each job takes varies on the extent of clutter and damage. The size of the home and several other factors like distance to a dumpster or even if a dumpster can be used, stairs, etc, also play a key role in determining the amount of time needed for any hoarding cleanup job.
